A film that turns out to have everything to become a religious thriller, but actually goes too far and is not interesting anywhere. And just when you think it's going to be okay, the movie kills itself. Ledger does his best, but is a victim of the bad script and can't show much. The rest is just a little off-putting. A disappointment.

Fun at times but boring for the rest of the movie.
Not much happens and the ending isn't good and seems like you're missing something.

I don't understand all the bad reactions, because this movie is definitely worth watching.
Great puzzle and a great cast. I just reviewed the movie and it had been a while since I'd seen it and I really hadn't remembered anything about it. The second time I liked it a lot more, maybe that's because the film now works a little bit in reality. Point is, the church has always been supreme and that is what this film brings out in a light form.
The story is nice and quite original, I always find it interesting and fun when a film deals with faith and I had a lot of fun with this film.
Ledger plays decently for a novice, the rest of the cast does a fair to good job.
I say go see this movie despite the bad reactions. The film is a bit of a cross between The Da Vinci Code and Constantine.
After review I give 4 stars
