3/5
Maybe that’s the idea: to entice some Scorsese fans into a sober-minded historical primer. If nothing else, The Saints provide additional (if unneeded) evidence that there’s more to this man than his most famous crime stories. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 11/20/2024
There is some inherent cheesiness to the scripted parts of Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints, but the stories try to ground themselves in human reality, and Scorsese’s presents add his gravitas and genuine curiosity about faith and the Catholic church. Go to Full Review
Brad East Christianity Today 11/18/2024
