"Dieser Film war, als er 1994 in die Kinos kam, ein großer Erfolg. Dieses epische, oft übertrieben wirkende Familiendrama mag im Laufe des Films immer schwächer werden, aber Legenden der Leidenschaft ist die Art von lebhaftem und von Charakteren getragenem Film, an dem sich Hollywood öfter versuchen sollte. Der Film ist ebenfalls ein offensichtliches und schmeichelhaftes Star-Vehikel für Brad Pitt als Tristan -- rebellischer mittlerer S ..."
