Critic Reviews

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

At well over two hours it's merely exhausting, and the constant evocation of the fearsome power of "The Lodge," which proves Pat's salvation (Nwamu is himself a Freemason), is as silly-spooky as the White and Black Lodge hokum of "Twin Peaks." Read full review

Matt Singer

For such a poorly made autobiopic to earn a theatrical release, Nwamu must have some friends in high places. Read full review

Laura Kern

Hands down the most excruciatingly inept film to creep its way into theaters in some time. Read full review
