Into Temptation doesn't break ground as a story, even one about redemption. Even so, Coyle's understanding of the pastoral work of the parish priest is refreshing.
Top CriticA Catholic-themed indie of occasionally irreverent wit, Into Temptation is appropriately tough to resist.
Into Temptation is a haunting, carefully crafted movie about a woman with mile-wide rips in her soul and the flawed priest who aims to save her.
Into Temptation treats Catholocism - and its audience - with a great deal of respect.
Sharply constructed with a heavy spray of noirish aroma, Temptation is a uniquely accomplished indie film, wielding salacious material sensitively, building an intoxicating sense of intrigue and discomfort.
A modest, intelligent film.
