Bless Me Father

This movie is really intense and you almost have to be kind of smart to actually understand its beauty. The essence of the film is electrifying. The fact you're in a confession booth the whole movie is really cool. Wait until you see the end. The writing of the story had been guessing which way the title was going to go, it was refreshing. Usually you can guess what's going to happen next in a movie and you figure it out yourself, but this one will have you guess. You have to be paying attention when you watch this movie. Not everything is spelled out loud for you. You have to let you imagination kick in, which to me is the true measure of great art!

Bless Me Father is a great movie. It really blows my mind that this film was made with all non actors and it was the filmmakers debut feature film. I am giving them this rating because for limited resources they had and the extremely small budget this was made on it's almost impossible what they did. Usually I don't like when I hear someone wrote, directed, acted, edited, and even did the sound design, but McLaughlin pulled it off. I would say for him next time to delegate some of the responsibilities to other people and the movies will be that much better, it's still really impressive. You can tell the guy put his soul into it. Ive seen the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo work. This movie is no where near that level of greatness, but I would say the guys out there doing his thing.

From start to finish this was a great film. It was entertaining well-presented and the music was powerful. I loved the cast they kept me entertained with raw performances that weren't pushed at all. I think this was a very well cast piece as it seemed all characters fitted their roles perfectly. The story itself has lots of unseen surprises for the audience. Without giving any spoilers there is one point in the film where you are so confused about the main characters decision in the moment. Vinny played by Gianni McLaughlin is a very complex character and the motives behind his choices. Gianni did a great job and I hope to see more.

This flick won't disappoint if you are thinking about it definitely hit buy. It's a film full of passion full of emotion I really loved it and it got to be very emotional at different points in the film. I would like to see more women next time and not just more women half naked but more of the women who are closest to the protagonist Vinny's life. For example, his girlfriend Tina, it would have been great to have seen more of her at the beginning of the piece she was a great character and I think it would have added a lot to the plot to have seen more of her. Great role which I think the actress smashed completely. That said great performances all round.

This movie reminds me a lot of boondocks saints when it first came out. A lot fo local buzz. Many people are talking about this movie in the New York/ New Jersey area. I think it's because there are no big shot movie stars and you got raw authentic acting. It's like their a documentary when it's a movie. I Think it's great the movie shed a dark light on the mob genre as well. Not glorifying it. I think it's also great that it's a modern day mob movie. You never really see movies like this set in 2020. Great to see this. I hope they make a sequel. I want o find out more. Like did they really have to end it like that though? I had that same sick feeling as I did when I watched the end of the sopranos.
