Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Ricardo Daly The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The Movie Diorama A 14th Century backdrop, witchcraft, crusader battles and Foy are all elements that should've made for a thrilling, if not watchable, film. Conversely we are presented with Cage (post-'Kick-Ass'), weak characters, dreary interchangeable plot scenarios and a third act that decimates the entirety of the film that preceded it. Pass me some holy water, I need to cleanse my eyes from what I just watched. So, two knights decide to leave the crusade and are approached by a cardinal who is infected with the plague. He believes that a witch has caused this pandemic and asks of them to escort her to a monastery where a group of monks can trial her. Along their perilous journey consisting of crossing a rickety wooden bridge, battling monstrous wolves and chasing conspicuous visions, they talk amongst themselves. But they don't just talk and naturally communicate, oh no no. They. Talk. About. Their. Entire. Life. Stories. The whole narrative is a continuous requirement for forced backstory to the most forgettable and thinly written characters ever. An altar boy joins the brigade? Let's engage him in a role-playing sword fight that relishes in imitating a TV show-like quality and just talk. Setting up camp? Let's talk about our lives. The "witch" is crying on the floor after being lashed? Let's get to know her, I wonder what she's having for dinner tonight! An absolutely uninteresting group of generic actors that look like they've purposefully made their own costumes for a 'Game of Thrones' convention. Not even Cage and Perlman could save this drivel, although they clearly are the strongest cast members amidst the good production design. Accents were lost from Foy and Sheehan. Blatant green screen was utilised during dialogue exchanges, despite being shot on location. Then, a tediously unimaginative plot twist unveils itself and makes way for horrific CGI creatures, that turns a historical medieval "thriller" into a fantasy fricking mess. Actually, screw the holy water, pass me that crested sword. I'm gouging my eyes out instead.

magdi-dawood I can't understand why all this negativity in some reviews, first of all Cage did an acceptable role, beside Ron,and the others But, when it comes to Claire Foy, she did a remarkable performance, every scene she did was a exceptional one from my point of view, remember that Claire wasn't famous then or nominated to any award, the sound track was very good, the locations, cgi were not that good,directing isn't that great however I believe he tried and any idiot will figure out that the budget wasn't helpful, anyways the movie is pop corn movie, don't expect Got, or LOT, I could tell why the movie didn't get fair rating or critics, lot of people can't accept the truth of the church and the power of pope then and now lol Anyways I must say it doesn't worth more than 6/10 but I gave it extra star for Claire got performance

stephenbell-36041 The film starts off well but is completely spoilt by a stupid conclusion. Claire Foy is underused as the "witch" and her part is ignored at the end in a ridiculous finale.

michael-richard I know it's not a good film. The acting is sub-par - though Perlman is likable and Cage doesn't appear to be phoning it in, as is his wont these days. But I enjoyed a lot it anyway. The pacing is a little uneven and the special effects are a bit dodgy, but it's not enough to distract the viewer in my opinion.I liken this to films such as Congo and I Am Number 4 (to pick two at random). Solidly made B films that are fun and unpretentious. Go in with an open mind and you'll have some fun watching it too. Director Dominic Sena's work is stylish, much like all his other films (Gone In 60 Seconds and Swordfish). The movie looks pretty good and is a fun way to pass 100 minutes or so.
