User Review
A psychological thriller, which will not be interesting to everyone, because the movie will not have puddles of blood and scattered body parts all over the set. There will be blood, but not in the quantity and not with the intensity that the target audience is used to. Most of the picture is taken up with exposition and exploration of the main theme - religion controls the life of the believer, religion as a force that controls the life of the believer.
In this painting, the protagonist will be an erudite anti-hero who is convinced of his rightness, who has, as he thinks, fundamental proof and weighty tools to destroy the systemic attitudes and objectively common perceptions he opposes and argues against, in another word - the very real heretic. It is a chamber, intriguing, sometimes epathetic, sometimes tense thriller, consisting of dialogues that turn into heated debates, where fierce arguments can cost the lives of two heroines.
The movie focuses not so much on tension and fear, but on the gray matter of the viewer's brain, without neglecting the chosen genre. The film subtly and tastefully plays on the nerves, intrigued by the mysterious plot of the charming sociopath Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), who like a puppeteer manipulates the victims in an improvised theater of chilling proof of a new religion, which will be witnessed by two young Mormon women of his choice, or, more correctly, missionary sisters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: Sister Barnes (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Paxton (Chloe East), whom he has invited to his home ostensibly to learn more about the holy gospel. Unexpected revelations await them.
The missionaries have no idea that it is he who will preach and convert them. A theological discussion with Mr. Reed about faith and belief, life and death, and the existence of a divine essence, gradually devolves into an attempt to shatter the girls' entire belief system with pointed questions about the nature of their faith. Why do they believe in their heavenly father at all? Do they really believe or are they merely following a religious set-up? Why do people tend to believe what they believe in the first place? Just because someone told them so? What if the religion of the two missionary women is an idea they were indoctrinated with just to control their minds?
This is a fascinating witty discourse that is reminiscent of a college theology seminar in which the viewer learns about the common religious narrative of multiple faiths and movements, revealing to the viewer the histories of the beliefs and their cross influences.
The movie draws a conceptual parallel between religion, music, and board games to show how the same idea that shapes worldviews is borrowed and modified throughout human history. This movie will ask a lot of questions and the viewer will have a lot to think about and discuss, but of course the story won't forget to play on our nerves as well. A smug amateur theologian cleverly lures the girls into a psychological trap of doubt, traps them in an imaginary dead end, forcing them to lie, forcing them to choose between faith and apostasy, frightening them with his inscrutable dark scheme, and this is where the tense and mysterious action begins.
The heroines' choices set off an intricate string of bloody events, and an intellectual seminar turns into a chilling mystical thriller. This is a well staged and directed movie with convincing acting and skillful camerawork. It's just a pity that the authors don't reveal the beliefs of the anti-hero, who has only scientific research and the proof he found. We do not learn what his faith consists of, what its essence or philosophical justification is, he will not preach his laws and rules of spiritual mastery of the world, and this is very much missing for the completeness of his mythical image of a heretic. His cold calculation and maniacal demonstration of a miracle turn into an emptiness that offers nothing: no comfort, no warmth of heart, his religion has nothing to fill its follower with.
But the conclusions are of course yours to draw, this is my subjective opinion, and you shouldn't take my word for it, you shouldn't take anyone's word for it, and this is the most important statement of the movie:
- “Why do we believe what we believe? Just because someone told us so?”
The movie has an open ending, everyone involved will change, but the consequences require waiting for the story to continue. I'd explain my point of view, but that would be a spoiler. If you like sharp themes, provocative content, philosophical dilemmas and unexpected plot twists, then this movie will definitely be of interest to you. Enjoy the movie and watch a good movie.
