Best movie of this year hands down!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
LMN movies are usually on the T.V. because my mom watches a lot of them so I often find myself involuntarily listening or even watching them. Most of the time these movies are terribly mediocre and have the same types of plots over and over again. Either it's about a kidnapping, a crime/murder, or a stupid high school drama that ends up turning into something more serious. However this movie has a different type of storyline and plot altogether and it's really refreshing. This movie shows just how dangerous and manipulative religious cults or any type of cult can be. The acting isn't perfect but I feel like it's pretty decent for a LMN movie. The movie also deals with homosexuality, abuse, and religious fanaticism and can be quite dark at times so be warned about that as well. Overall I feel that this is a cut above your average LMN movie and it's a not a bad one either.
We see here basically the pitfalls of these religious sects. They are very dangerous to the core. They begin to have tremendous influence over the people who are in it, and sometimes deadly consequences are the very results of membership.These cults shut out all phases of life as depicted in the film. There usually becomes totally blind obedience to the cult leader, who is always supposedly extremely dedicated to his beliefs, and will stop at nothing, even if it means that others get hurt.We all see here the idea of homosexuality interfering and even when stories are made up, and people are absolved from alleged crimes, the stigma remains with them for life.
