Scott is extraordinary -- intense, brazen, passionate.

The film lays bare the roots of Patton's lust for power in his willingess to sacrifice everything to his vaunting ego, a trait which is mirrored in George C Scott's superb performance.

War is hell, and Patton is one hell of a war picture, perhaps one of the most remarkable of its type ever made.

George C. Scott's intuitive, powerhouse performance paints a complex picture of a steadfast soldier that believed firmly in reincarnation, colorful language, and the glories of war.

Although I have sometimes complained about the length of movies, I wouldn't begrudge a single minute from Patton's nearly three hour running time.

Combining blimpish bluster with moments of monstrous ego and unexpected humanity, Scott makes this magnificent film unforgettable.

The movie's vision blurs the man and, incidentally, the just war around him.

It's certainly a great performance from Scott, a seamless, pity-free portrayal.

George C. Scott's performance cannot be praised highly enough for capturing both the violence and the vulnerability of the Patton personality without degenerating either into vulgar caricature or cardboard sentimentality.

Nixon's favorite movie, which proves he was blind to ambiguity as well as a few other things.

I'd like to pin four stars on each shoulder of George C. Scott for his perspective characterization of the military genius, the controversial man.

George C. Scott makes for such an unstoppably watchable Patton that... he makes every single onscreen moment feels like the most vital thing you have ever seen in a movie.
