Critic Reviews for The Confession

All Critics (2) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (2)

This beautifully photographed tale of religion, redemption and repressed sensuality can lumber at times due to the heavy-handedness of the scenario, though the many verbal duels between the two leads are also what make it work.
