Reception
Pre-release
Prior to its release, several protest groups had accused the film of glorifying the colonial history of the Netherlands[2] although references to colonialism in the film are almost absent. The film makes a minor reference to the Dutch East India Company, which contributed highly to the welfare in the 17th century in the Low Countries, and to the trading vessels that were protected by the navy under Michiel de Ruyter. The film's main subjects, apart from Ruyter himself, are the internal politics of the country,[11] including the brutal murder of Johan de Witt[12] and the complicated relationship with England, up to the engagement of the William III of Orange with the English princess Mary.[13]
Post-release
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 60% based on 5 reviews, with an average rating of 6.56/10.[14] In a review for the Los Angeles Times, Robert Abele writes: "With loving shots of booming, towering ships so dominant, and decades squeezed into what feels like a week of action, there's barely enough time to develop De Ruyter as a character in his own movie, or even successfully explain his war strategies."[15]
