OUT NOW Heretic

I think it would have been nicer if there were more levels to his Dantes inferno

He did say one of them would witness a miracle. Though they left it up in the air on if she actually survived or she froze to death outside while bleeding out
 
PRAISE: Having being a member of several organized religions over the years i found myself instantly involved in this movie about. Two young missionaries being pulled into the trap of a Mr.Reed.
Some of the discussions about the Bible ive had over time matched with the topics and questions brought up by Mr.Reed portrayed by Hugh Grant who looks like he's having fun in almost every scene he's in. Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East are quite good as the sisters in religion. At first equally matching Reeds questions with their own analogies which made me smile, in fact I don't think i could stop smiling during the movies first 30 minutes. Even with the possibility of something sinister going on with Reed his questions and metaphors about faith and beliefs were always interesting to me. The intentions and objectives of Reed seemed obvious but i didn't mind because it's tied to the interesting parts of the movie.
There are several good moments of suspense and good uses of camera work as I was placed in the footsteps of the two missionaries as they approach certain objects in Reeds home.

PROBLEMS: Not much is done with a specific character i felt the placement was just there to be tied to a moment of convenience. The movie definitely runs out of steam in its last 24 minutes as things are explained as if I was watching a Scooby Doo Gang or Nancy Drew explanation of everything

Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½
