Benedetta (2021)
7/10
Here's a short spoiler free review, not an essay about the movie
15 October 2022
I put this at a 7/10 because I couldn't stop watching it. It's definitely not for everyone, it's "sacrilegious" in probably every single faith, but it's really a movie worth watching. The sex and nudity is there, but not at an insane clip that takes away from the movie, from some of the reviews I actually expected more. The acting is great, especially in Benedetta, and by the end you still aren't sure which side of the tracks the nun falls under: deceiver, bat s**t crazy or truly chosen by the Almighty. It's a bit stigmata, a bit The Devil's, and a bit of something else but I really can't say. I don't know if this review will help you, but I think it's worth watching, even if it's hard to watch at times, because it actually is a very well told, beautifully shot, incredibly well acted movie.
