The story's constant and unexpected turns do provide rewards, but the real value of the film is in the richness with which it presents moral and emotional conflicts, laying them out with sensible realism and power.

Where Angels Fear to Tread is slow and deliberate, but the film is so absorbing that the audience won't mind.
