2/3 of commercial movies are some sort of attack on Catholics IMO.

it unfairly shows the Church as exploitative and coercive.
Wow, how unexpected. Actually, I couldn't care less ... haven't been to the movies in 20+ years.

Pretty much any movie that is set north of the Mason Dixon line or west of the Pecos uses Catholics as its anti-Christianity target.

Any movie that is set in the South uses Baptists/Pentecostals (I know there is a distinction, but not in the movies).

If you don’t go to the movies anyway, then your opinion isn’t that valuable. I go to the movies fairly often but I certainly wouldn’t go to this one, and I suspect there are many other people who won’t go either.

There’s nothing more tiresome than a PC movie, and this one is clearly PC anti-Catholicism in abundance.

all anyone needs to know about this dud.

This movie is about a dead homosexual.

It is all propaganda.

Not anything. If they really cared about making money they would be cranking out family friendly movies by the hundreds. Many families stay home nowadays and don’t bother going to theaters because there’s almost nothing they can view as a family.

Sometimes these blatant propaganda shows/movies are just too obvious.
