There Are No Saints Reviews

There may be no saints, but there are definitely enough people who had nothing better to do.

| Jul 5, 2022

The film clunks on, acted with no flair or charisma by anyone in the cast and no energy or interest in the direction.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 21, 2022

It's a gross film that has no place for any saints.

| Original Score: C- | Jun 12, 2022

Like a low-budget, cut-rate version of a John Wick movie.

There Are No Saints is trying to be the good kind of trash we don’t get enough of, but instead fails to be competent enough, and has such a vile disposition that it settles on being the bad kind of trash.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 3, 2022

Schrader and director Alfredo Pineda Ulloa are mostly interested in seeing just how bleak they can make this entire affair.

I’d rather eat a baseball than have to sit through There Are No Saints ever again.

| Original Score: 2/10 | May 31, 2022

Emerges after its long slumber as an especially repellent revenge melodrama, beset by excessive violence and heavy-handed moralizing.

| Original Score: D+ | May 30, 2022

This action/thriller isn't just totally generic, but it veers into offensive territory with its racial stereotypes and its violence against women and children.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 27, 2022

Overall worth a watch if you want to see men, being MEN and girls playing the harlot/damsel….but not something to sink your teeth into.

Steeped in violence and religious imagery, "There Are No Saints" is a tale of revenge and redemption scripted by the legendary PaulSchadrer...https://www.bostonherald.com/2022/05/27/bhr-l-saints-wbox-0527/

| Original Score: B+ | May 27, 2022

“There Are No Saints” is like a ghost film, drifting in from the past to our present — still haunting in its way, but hazy about its mission.

| May 27, 2022

Alfonso Pineda Ulloa has used this script to make a slick, violent crime movie that is more than happy to basically abandon its initially heady themes in favor of more typical straightforward bloodshed.

| May 27, 2022

Genre cliches overwhelm the more thoughtful character-driven components of this ultraviolent thriller of redemption and revenge.

| May 27, 2022

The basic schematic of the plot is so routine and hollow that There Are No Saints doesn't earn the impact of its real shocks...

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 27, 2022

There Are No Saints may be too eager to play the down-and-dirty game and too thematically slim to find cinematic redemption.

| May 26, 2022

Screenwriter Paul Schrader goes ultra gritty in a bloody actioner that savages the innocent. There Are No Saints suffers from generic action tropes; but gets a pass for its brutal characters and willingness to defy convention.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | May 26, 2022

Certain scenes play too choppy, feeling like they were operated on extensively in post. Too many lines of dialogue patch together exposition, appearing to be band-aids for a plotline that is incredibly straightforward.

| Original Score: C | May 26, 2022

It can be difficult to take genre movies that are this clichéd seriously, and doubly so when they insist on regurgitating tropes in a humorless register.

| May 26, 2022

There Are No Saints is a serviceable thriller/crime film. It’s pretty good, but it’s not something that will stick with the viewer long term...

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | May 26, 2022
