Bianca Garner Next Best Picture May 5, 2021
9/10
A thoughtful and insightful documentary that shows the power of communication as well as depicting the aftermath of a traumatic event and the effects of cult mentality. Go to Full Review Patrick King Cultured Vultures Oct 10, 2019
The Atoning almost becomes arthouse horror, but there's enough B-movie sensibilities about the piece for it to appeal to horror fans of all sorts. Go to Full Review Frank Ochieng The Critical Movie Critics Mar 1, 2019
3/4

5/10

The Atoning is unoriginal and underwhelming at every turn. Even the climatic moments are anti-climatic. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Sep 7, 2017
3/5
