Audience Member Whatever they were trying for, I didn't get it. It was a dark and dreary night/day that lasted forever. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Religion is the root of all evil. Watching films like this just makes me even more glad that i dont believe in god. Good film set in ireland, about an over eager priest. Messed up if you ask me.. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Started strongly but started to unravel quickly, which was a shame as religious fervour, in what looked like 50's Northern Ireland could have made for a very strong Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Convincing period detail provides scant consolation in a histrionic pot-boiler that is as entertaining as a sermon and as thrilling as tea with the vicar.

Quiet a depressing film though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
