It is a good movie. It is too bad this reviewer is ignorant of and/or inimical to the Catholic Church and Catholics. He doesn’t like it that Protestants were left out of a movie that is set in a time when there were few or no domestic Protestants in Mexico. He would be more comfortable if some Methodists or Primitive Baptists were dropped in from somewhere.
The relevant alternative is those terrible Mormons.
Mennonites have made a showing in Central and S. America in the last few decades.
Well, it’s Roger Ebert, so, of course, he is anti-Catholic.
