Critic Reviews

Bob Westal

It's not often that a film changes history, but it's just possible that Irish writer-director John Deery's righteously energetic Conspiracy of Silence just might help alter the course of 21st century Catholicism. Read full review

Michael Rechtshaffen

A challenging, thought-provoking debut that compassionately questions the relevance of celibacy in the Catholic Church. Read full review

Anita Gates

Deery's modest drama is one big, obvious argument against the vow of celibacy for Roman Catholic priests, but it has heart. Read full review

Ruthe Stein

Feels like a personal vendetta. Read full review

Jack Mathews

Deery's points are well-taken, but they would have been a lot better made if he hadn't taken so many easy shots at the church by demonizing its local authorities. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Touches on issues raised in "Bad Education," but without Pedro Almodovar's flamboyant elegance. Read full review

Nathan Rabin

A well-intentioned but ultimately incompetent Irish dud. Read full review
