I will never get those three hours back

Rating: 2/10 (11 January 2017)

Three hours of Japanese villagers denouncing Christ by standing on a plate with his face on it. Positives were an insight into Japanese religious culture at the time but other than a complete anti-climatic, repetitive and down-right exhausting three hours of cinema.
Liam Neeson is unconvincing and on screen for probably twenty minutes of the 240 running time. The entire film is built around the Japanese effort to break the priest and low and behold, the man they staying strong for had broken years ago. Total anti-climax. In three hours they visit three places.
Google foot on plate and save yourself three hours.
