I WAS HOPING FOR MY OWN HEAD TO BE CHOPPED OFF

Rating: 3/10 (1 April 2020)

This is a loooooong, perhaps not entirely boring as the intermittent torture helps pep things up.
I am not sure if this was intended as a pro Christianity epic, but it merely served to reinforce the sad implications of ignorant masses devoutly following religious doctrines, which they really don't understand, to their deaths. All in the hope of escaping their miserable earthly existence.
This movie is akin to the other religious disaster, The Passion of Christ. I guess if you're a keen flagellant, this movie is a must!!
Oh, and Andrew Garfield is completely miscast!! Adam Driver is great and Liam Neeson, another casting error.
Some nice cinematography, and costumes save this from a 1 star. If you really want to watch an excellent missionary movie, watch The Mission. Oh and it has a real actor in it, de Niro... Nuff said
