Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Its up there with that 70s masterpiece! Full of shock and suspense this is a great intelectual triumph! I did not realise the true life link with 'Truth', a movie which is not as good as this!

The contents isn't easy going, but even if only 10% is based on what really happened it is a story that needs to be told and not forgotten.

The most damning and sickening movie of religious depravity, combined with twisted bureaucracy of all time. How and why is this not a universal scandal that rocks the foundations of peoples understanding of the church? I'm baffled at humankinds thinking. These are not men of God, but just men! Very very sick men. Go Spotlight!!
