      Audience Member Fascinating storyline. Chris Pyne captures evil brilliantly. A searing morality tale. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/10/21 Full Review Audience Member Compelling picture: Chris Pine at his best role to date before Hell or High water. He was 25, but damn it, he was so good. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm not really sure what to rate this movie, I wasn't able to finish it because the DVD I had skipped so bad Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member There really are no good guys here. Nobody to root for, because just about everyone is slimy and underhanded. And the plot drags a bit. Overall, it's interesting enough, but with a bit more action, some more in-depth acting and maybe another plot twist or two, this would have been a much better film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Chris Pine plays a student at an all boys catholic school as the rebel & trouble maker selling alcohol, dirty magazines, etc to the kids & acts innocent fooling the priests. Until someone squeals & an unfortunate incident happens. Well Between watching Sands of Oblivion, This & then Frozen.. This was the movie tho not my fare.. I liked best. The character to me is well written showing a well rounded (no wait that?s not the TYPE of person the character is but how the character is written. As Complex as any of us & struggling w/ The issue(s) at hand. C+ Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This B-Movie gem is the first leading role for Chris Pine, and it may be his best role to date. Pine plays Luther, the "bad" kid at Catholic school who can get you anything you want. He is however caught and along with his roommate, he is quickly booted out of school. Luther becomes obsessed with finding out who turned him in and when he does, the boy mysterious turns up dead. At a similar time, someone confesses to Priest Michael Kelly, who now knows who and why, but can't say anything. As a result Kelly quickly becomes a suspect leading up to a tremendous finally. Pine, best known as the "new" Captain Kirk was just fantastic. It's a shame this is a B-Movie, because if it had been a major release, he would have gained the recognition he deserves a lot sooner. This film is tremendous, I saw it as a modern day Shakespearean tragedy. It has life, death, religion, intrigue, and much more. It's a great film that fell way under the radar!

      Steven D. Greydanus Decent Films Reverent, well directed, and well acted… Confession's weakness is also its promotional gimmick: Meyers directed the film at 24, but wrote the screenplay ten years earlier. Rated: C+ Feb 11, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
