luckily and i rent this from my library and so all i want back be the 99 minute i waste watch it . ( actually and i only waste about an hour and 15 minute and since i fast forward through everything that do not have subtitle . and i be still bore . ) it lack character development . plot development . thematic development . whatever it be you need to make a good thriller and the producer and director say oh and let not do that . and do the wrong thing . it wasn not a if bad choice be make mistakenly and but deliberately . the narrative be painfully choppy and the english translation for the subtitle pitifully stilted ( and wrong . at one point and accord to the subtitle and the monsignor tell joachim the reverend mother doesn not trust him . in french and however and he say she think youre the anti christ . gerard depardieu be a terrific actor but he just ain not priest material and it be a long time since he ( and sean connery and harrison ford and a few others ) could play a believable romantic hero opposite a ( much and much ) young actress . ( indeed and have this play over here and sean connery would be our priest and lindsay lohan would be the nun . ) i do not know if the script can be blame on the source novel and but i could not swallow carmelite nun at a voodoo ceremony any more than i could swallow the sudden and inexplicable love affair between joachim and gaelle . the end be a gory mess and the effort to blur the twin identity be just silly . a waste of time from start to finish . the only good part of this flick for anyone at my home be that my cat get to sit on my lap and sleep for the hour and 15 minute the movie play . look elsewhere .
