Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Well acted, Ruffalo does a great bit of work as someone who knows they have to go on asking questions, the answers to which they're not going to like. Sad that the problem hasn't stopped, but it is institutionalized predatory addiction...only absolute transparency and openness to daylight can make that happen.

As a lapsed catholic, my disapointment with church goes back to the 60's, but this movie absolutely blew my mind! They are criminals and need to be treated as such! And from a Chicago paper article, it's still occuring, so if it's happening here, it's going on elsewhere !

Very Good!
