Storyline
Featured review
A hard movie to get your head round - the premise of the movie offers promise but fails to deliver.
The two main actors: Bramwell Noah as 'The Devil' is excellent in his role - giving a low key performance that oozes just the right amount of menace mixed with bafflement at the human experience. Daniel Schepisi - as 'Jesus' also shines - a very charismatic actor.
Outside of these two actors I have to rate the rest of the cast as pretty poor - sorry - but just saying your lines is not acting. Rarely have I seen such an un-emotive cast - especially considering the setting - a Psychiatric Unit.
The soundtrack was dismal - more a hash of random music clips strung together then a soundtrack.
Not entirely sure what the addition of the Solicitor, Private Investigator et al were supposed to add to the the movie - and in retrospect, I'd have to say that they mere detracted from the general flow.
Conclusion: A watchable movie but lacking any kind of real spark.
