This is a prequel to The Danish Girl, and we follow the tragic experiences of the character played by Eddie Redmayne, leading to his desire to transition. Sean Bean and Carice Houten reprise their roles from GOT

I thought the movie was great, and Sean's performance excellent. This movie definitely deserves a higher rating.

Grim. Worth a watch.

Im stunned most people didn't like this movie sure it had nothing really special to it.. well written the acting was really really good! Can seem stale at some points but still keeps you engaged for me its just you dont find these type of movies so im bias towards it but i will say it sometimes it looks like an independent movie just in some shots of the movie either way its a good twist on an overused concept Worth a watch if your into medieval movies but would watch something else if not.

a medieval horror film with a rather interesting storyline, served by good European actors.

For what it is, it takes quite some time to get going, and even after things go south it's still not all that engaging. The concept of 'remote pagans in the woods' has been explored in other films with much more deeply moving results, whereas even as a period piece this film doesn't have much to look at. Atrocious 'handheld' cinematography does a severe disservice to the well chosen sets, and in the end the story doesn't amount to much at all.

Terrific film, similar in themes and formula to The Wicker Man, very intelligent dialogue, and interesting arguments on religion.

A well-acted, atmospheric movie. I would have loved it if the witchfinders had found real supernatural witches. For me, it was a disappointment in the direction it took. I don't want to spoil too much. It just didn't work for me.

Very underrated movie with a good twist, it's bloody and dark so it's not for everyone.

I loved it, I don't understand the bad reviews.

This is understandably a dark and bleak watch. The plot pace is a little slow to build and there's some quite jerky/wobbly camerawork used, adding to the sense of unease, apprehension and panic, although I know some people can't stand jerky camerwork, so I thought I'd mention it. It felt a little forced for my taste, personally. For a film categorised on some sites as a horror, its not fast paced enough, or gory enough, for me to regard it as such - IMDB classify it as an action, adventure and drama film, which seems more appropriate but given its title and cover image, I'd imagine most people would assume it to be a horror film. There is certainly bloody violence present, don't get me wrong but it felt more, to me, like perhaps a mysterious part thriller, part period drama film. It didn't appear to have a big budget, having the feel of a 온라인카지노추천 film I'd say but I thought it was generally reasonably watchable, that is if your ok with the disorientating aspect of the often shaky camerawork during the faster paced scenes (there are some) and the not entirely clear plot direction. I thought it was interesting to see Eddie Redmayne play the role of one of the main characters - Osmund, an adolescent monk hoping to find the truth behind tales of people cured from the bubonic plague. He did pretty well playing someone still somewhat growing up, trying to gauge what might be out there, what truth(s) there may be and so on but the camerawork did put me off and I wish the plot direction was a little more solid (it seemed a little directionless at times). Its not a really awful watch per se but its by no means great either - an ok watch overall, at the best. I also wouldn't say its not at all spooky or sinister in tone but it seemed a little too bland mid way through - I wasn't convinced we were going to reach any real conclusions as such. Would I recommend it? if your a big fan of Eddie Redmayne and would like to see him play such a role, then it may be worth watching for that reason but otherwise I wouldn't go out of your way to see it, no.

Some great acting at certain points but felt like a drag to a weird end

A group of religious Christian men must travel to a village and must restore Christ to the people who have apparently abandoned God.

Maybe I wanted a little more from the film but it kept me engaged.

Enthralling movie, bad ending.

All around bad. I don't know who deserves the most blame; the writer?, director?, actors? editor? I overlooked the jarring jumps and slow pace with expectations of witches or zombies or psychological suspense. But, by the second inexplicable slo-mo of a friar walking and the constant preachy monologues delivered so earnestly as to provoke uncomfortable laughter as a defense mechanism to the embarrassment you feel, I realized it was going nowhere interesting and it became a hate watching. I guess it's directed at the hip young opus dei crowd and probably is a midnight favorite at all the small catholic universities. I don't even think it had any witches titties! No stars. Not recommended.

A bit too clever for it's own good, this deeply dark movie is saved by the nuanced performance of Eddie Redmayne and Sean Bean.

A story with great possibilities. Unfortunately for the viewer, our director decided to shoot with a hand held camera delivering shaky, blurry shots, I guess he was going for an edgy, guerrilla, documentary style in Medieval times, add the poor editing and production value. The pacing and rhythm of the movie made for the first half of the movie to be a snoozer so try not to fall asleep, till the second half when things pick up a bit, but it's all formulaic and predictable. Expect for the very end of the film when we are treated to the appearance of "Dark Vader".

One of the best and most underrated! Just when you thought it could not get any better, the ending and then the final ending were shockers.
