Peddles the sort of heartstring-pulling uplift traditionally reserved for year-end awards hopefuls.

These are all tremendous, longtime character actors who really get the chance to sink their teeth into this meaty work... [But] it takes a turn from which it never recovers.

To the extent that [the experiment] was an interesting thing to do, this is an interesting movie.

The movie may be too understated and inert for its own good, but the actors are uniformly exemplary.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 10, 2020

Three Christs opts in for frustratingly broad characters that feel like half-considered caricatures, while Jeff Russo's sentimental, strings-heavy score flattens whatever modest edge the movie might have had.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 10, 2020

As if it weren't bad enough that "Three Christs" were boring, it's impossible to believe, and for that, there is no cure.

Like the original experiment, this film fails when it tries to impose a conclusion, rather than letting its meaning reveal itself naturally.

The director, Jon Avnet, who wrote the script with Eric Nazarian, succeeds in keeping the movie watchable in spite of its contrivances.

Follows a relatively well-tread formula, which is perhaps why it feels so inert. It's a good, relative surface-level reading of events, but the man-on-a-crusade approach feels so much more dramatic than it needs to be.

Just an odd mess of a movie. That you feel anything at all is a tribute to the acting talent of Dinklage and Goggins, who occasionally make us care.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 8, 2020

There's no salvation to be found in this story of a sane man learning about his own limitations from the insane-only suffering.

| Original Score: C- | Jan 7, 2020

By the end, it's as if a good doctor's god complex has been taken up by the film itself.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 5, 2020

Call it Lord, Interrupted or One Flew Over the Crucifix, this is a tedious slog that fails even to hit the emotional marks of the most formulaic nut-house movie.
