Critic Reviews

New Times (L.A.) Luke Y. Thompson

It's a heartfelt and powerful examination of faith that no serious student or enthusiast of theology or philosophy should miss. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

Gets off to a pretty intriguing start before degenerating into a series of routine action sequences. Read full review

Bruce Fretts

This cinematic stiff should have stayed buried. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

Antonio Banderas is unintentionally hilarious as Father Matt Gutierrez, a sort of Jesuit James Bond.

Mr. Showbiz Kevin Maynard

This talky, self-important flick is a bore of biblical proportions.

Scott Foundas

Has shown its true colors as less a serious religious-themed film than a moth-eaten tapestry of foreign intrigue and badly miscast international stars. Read full review

John Patterson

Mutates halfway through into a ham-fisted action movie that squanders the good will, and insults the intelligence, of its audience. Read full review
