Over all, The Pillars of the Earth will go down painlessly for the fan of this sort of epic; while it's predictable and never exactly sweeping, it's certainly eventful, and the production values are above average.

They just don't make them like this anymore.

It reminds us the value and satisfaction we can find in a complex production executed well.

They really don't make them like this anymore.

There is a lot to commend in this Pillars of the Earth, chiefly the actors - who are uniformly excellent - and its set design.
