      Audience Member The greatest 01 hour: and 57 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!! Ages 17 and older!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing tryst of fate ... riveting acting ... never see it coming! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member At times "Blind Faith" has the noirish look of "L.A. Confidential", unfortunately what's missing is the well-told story. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Frances H Tragic story of the consequences of intolerance and hatred, with fine acting by Courtney Vance and Charles Dutton, and a fine script. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/11/13 Full Review Audience Member I like this movie... ;^) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Good for one time viewing. Ending is sad. Found it a little boring but kept watching to see the outcome. Good for a rental not a buy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
