FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
flipdern There are way too many people in this world who confuse sarcastic, cynical meanness with wit.If you're interested in one-note Aubrey Plaza and her stale caustic deadpan routine this will be right up your alley.
baronvonpiano I loved almost every minute of this movie, from all of John C. Reilly's scenes, to Dave Franco's very descriptive confession of the affair his character to he, to Aubrey Plaza's emo nun moments. However, the ending is awful! Sure, it's happy, the nuns go and save Dave Franco from being tortured in a dungeon, but it doesn't show them sneaking in or anything, it just cuts to them rescuing him, and it goes off without a hitch. There's no chase scene or anything, they just get away. And then it doesn't wrap the story up it just shows them running off. Other than that, hilarious movie, definitely recommend it.
Noquietthoughts So many funny scenes! The nuns' confessions, the priest losing the things he was supposed to sell, the tribunal questions and the punishment given. Very offbeat and irreverent and HILARIOUS!
AyanaH I had no idea what to expect going into this movie. I hadn't seen the trailer and only read a couple of reviews that gave nothing away. The first scene made me think one thing...and then the cursing started and I realized that it wasn't going to be your average set-in-a-nunnery medieval film.I don't really know how to classify this film. It's a comedy, that goes without saying, but what the point of it is, I honestly couldn't say. I know that it's loosely based on/inspired by the Decameron so I'm guessing it's a satire of sorts. It's funny, sexy and super ridiculous 100% of the time. While that isn't necessarily a bad thing, it is one of the downfalls for me. It felt like they went out of their way to be as religiously offensive as possible, which would've been fine if it had perhaps had a more focused objective than simply being as religiously offensive as possible.Still, the acting was strong and it was certainly entertaining. I can think of worse ways to kill 90 minutes.
