7/10
Angry!

It was a beautiful movie, the lead actors are fantastic, as they are in every movie, they are in.

I just got to say this, i'm not Christian, I am from Estonia, which is a former Soviet Union country, which means we are pretty much agnostics..the religion has been rooted out over 50 years of occupation

While it was a great movie I absolutely got enraged over the ending. How can someone have no backbone??? How can you not want to avenge what has been done to you? While i can agree on the subject of being a bystander in your life and let events take its course this story is in no way about that. That young boys' life and that of the lead lady was clearly influenced by the people at the monastery, what they did was in no way Christian and it should have consequences. How someone can accept that kind of wrong-doing is beyond me. The movie was great, the ending sucked!

This is my first review ever! And that's cause over hundreds of movies I have never been that enraged over and a dumb-ass ending!
