A good cast (Brenda Fricker, Hugh Bonneville and assorted veterans of British and Irish film and TV) gives Deery's film weight and credibility. Mar 11, 2005 | Rating: 3/5

The need to portray the powers-that-be at all levels -- from the Vatican to the local parish -- in the worst possible light intrudes upon the movie, making it feel like a personal vendetta. Feb 11, 2005 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Certainly a debate over the church's tradition of an unmarried clergy ... could be a good and worthy one. But a quick, clumsy melodrama -- complete with awkward, pop-scored sex scenes -- isn't the best venue. Dec 3, 2004

Deery's points are well-taken, but they would have been a lot better made if he hadn't taken so many easy shots at the church by demonizing its local authorities. Dec 3, 2004 | Rating: 2/4

Catholic nay-sayers will probably have a field day with the movie, but most would be better served by any one of the numerous documentaries that cover the same topic. Aug 8, 2005 | Rating: 2.5/5

The kind of film that has its heart in the right place: exposing corruption. But it loses credibility by doing so in a melodramatic way. Mar 17, 2005 | Rating: 2/4

Though Conspiracy of Silence misses a chance at being a first-rate drama, it sheds much-needed light on an area that the mainstream press has mysteriously abandoned. Dec 8, 2004 | Full Review…
