    Heretic

    Heretic felt like a lecture more than it did a movie. At times it felt like Hugh Grants’ lines were a hodge-podge of soliloquies - a sign of poor writing in this case. If I wanted to learn about how religion is a form of control, I would have watched a video of Donald Trump proclaiming Jesus is lord.

    This movie is for the people grieving a person they loved to suicide. It’s a cerebration of sorrow, pain, guilt, love, and the questions that follow. Did I truly know them? What was real? Could I have possibly done something different to change the outcome?
