Father Michael

About This Movie

So, 'Father Michael' is this gritty 2020 thriller that dives into the psyche of a disturbed priest. The atmosphere is pretty dark, almost claustrophobic, as he takes on a vigilante role against local criminals. It’s not your typical religious story; there's a raw, unfiltered edge to it. The pacing is a bit uneven but works because it mirrors the protagonist's descent. The practical effects, while not overdone, add a layer of authenticity that really grounds the film. Performances are solid, especially the lead, who's intense and unsettling, drawing you into this moral quagmire. It’s distinctive for how it blends spirituality with violent retribution, leaving you questioning the line between good and evil.
