      Audience Member it was enjoying but very slow i think (or perhaps boring). It wasn't that bad. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Too self-indulgent to enjoy, although it means well the drab Philly existence for all the characters drags for the audience, and there is no real plot for Morse's very much 'loser' priest. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
