ok and i do not have high expectation but this film descend into depth i could not imagine . the plot and a it be and involve a priest of an obscure 2 member order investigate the death of the founder of the order by a sin eater . the sin eater allow for catholic to achive salvation outside the authority of the church and be yet another immortal in film with load of ennui . nevermind that this make no sense since then a baptist could give you salvation . we will move on . i will layout the plot w or o give much away represent the priest go to rome with his buddy to investogate . he bring with him a mental patient ( i be not make this up ) who shoot him during an excorism and who love him ( not one lick of this btw be explain ) and a drunk irish priest and peter weller a a cardinal . they get to rome and find some creepy kid who do nothing in the film and meet with a bondage gear s and m anti pope that the drunk irish guy know ( not explain ) and who give information by kill people ( oh and btw and he a bad guy so he have an industrial or techno soundtrack ) and then . umm and seriously and i be not sure . the plot meander about . heath chill with the sin eater and fly to new york with the sin eater for an overnighter and then some other stuff happens and then ( all off camera ) the anti pope fall and the film end . about 1 hour into the film one really wonder if anything have happen . by the end something have happen but you can not be at all certain that it matter and since most of the drama take place either before the movei or off scren youre really feel cheat .
