No Man of God

Bundy's story has been told. This was good. Different.

Overall its good - i enjoyed it! I think the story could have included more details about Ted Bundy's background and family issues.

You may never have thought about it, but there are people who tell us (and not without merit and some valid points), that even someone like Hitler could not have been a monster 24/7 ... now what does that mean? If someone says that, you should assume that they are trying to figure out what the appeal was. Because the way we learn about him ... it sounds like everyone back then must have been equally evil or completely crazy.

I would assume that some were just roped into things ... Htiler and everyone around him got others to see a human side in them. Now why do I go to all those lengths? Because the same thing can be applied here. We see a bit of a human side of Bundy. He is not just the wild crazy maniac - I mean he is of course, but the performance here and the script give him some depth. And give Bill, the one interviewing him, something to hold onto.

Intriguing and suspensful - living of the performances of the main cast and some terrific developments. And a really exhilarating highlight towards the end ... talk about face off ... and talk about sucking someone and really getting them into their head ... not an easy watch for sure and not for everyone either.

I didn't watch any of the early films on Ted Bundy; so I can't tell if this movie has anything further to offer or not! But I can definitely tell that this Amber Sealey directorial is a serious & authentic take on the famous serial killing case by Bundy.

To be precise, this movie is hardly about Bundy's charismatic crimes or the trial process; actually it's about his unusual relationship with FBI Special Agent Bill Hagmaier in his final days before execution. I find this perspective of storytelling convincing enough to try once & I can say that this is a decent work.

A solid two men performance from Elijah Wood and Luke Kirby, an eerie score & an engaging enough screenplay made No Man of God a gripping watch. The movie didn't require many gruesome crime flashbacks as some dialogues were so well written & powerful that it gave a more prominent visual. I found some moments exceptional; especially that tv interview scene & when we can see the amalgamation between Ted & Hagmaier's character. Overall No Man of God deserves your attention for some real good reasons.

I think the main actors did a really good job, especially the Ted Bundy look-a-like. However the movie plot is somewhat weak and lacking the crescendo it was building up for.

All in all it was worth a watch for sure - but I'll probably not ever watch it again.
