Critic Reviews:
- " …a lush melodrama about the corruptibility of us all. " – Brandon Fibbs
- " All the King's Men has to settle for being something good that makes you want more (like a six-hour HBO movie). That's not to say it isn't filled with fine performances, clever writing and insights into politics that feel absolutely relevant today. " – Mary F. Pols
- " In its best moments, All the King's Men exhorts us to sit back and reflect on the dark choices we are all capable of making in the name of power. " – Jan Stuart
