Brimstone Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
eli_fermanov Superrrr amazing i have to say that i have never seen like this so far
marks662 I always hate it when a movie or television episode portrays a "religious" person as being demented (like in Carrie, for example), and misquotes the Bible, saying that it says they can mistreat people. And then when some people see that, it reinforces their belief that Christians are bad and the Bible tells people to do bad things. And this one is one of the worst that I've seen (if not the worst). One of the main reasons I wanted to see the movie was because Dakota Fanning is in it. But I knew that she was raised as a Southern Baptist, so she would have known that the way the script was written went against proper scriptural meaning. But, maybe she was denouncing her Christian upbringing and was more interested in having a leading role. She did a decent job as a troubled mute, but the writing and content overwhelms any good acting and scenery. One positive thing I can say about it is that I liked that it was in parts because it made it easier to watch it in two nights.
twinklebelle The story is harrowing, thought-provoking and dark.Dakota Fanning played an exceptional part, Guy Pierce definitely brought an evil so gross I felt uncomfortable in my stomach at times.To the reviewers that could not believe he could be where she was/find her, remember she has distinctive features I.e two moles on the back of her neck. A man, hell-bent on finding and torturing his daughter shows how compelled he is to complete his goal. Pushed to the brink of desperation, Liz/Joanna forfeits her old life/self and cuts out her own tongue in the hope she would be somewhat unrecognisable and create a new life.I also find the cutting out the tongue quite symbolic, after witnessing and enduring the many horrors of her upbringing, she possibly vowed never to speak of them? That if she survived to old age, that life would die with her? Physically, nothing stopped the reverend and nothing and nobody got in his way until he put Liz's/Joanna's daughter in danger. But be warned, do not mess with a mother and her child! A mother's bond with her child cannot be easily broken and I think that reflects in the film.Religion played a huge part, although always in the background, the dark side of convincing one's self of behaviour and attitude that allows them to essentially make up their own rules and do whatever they want, so long as they pray or pay penance (with self harm), with men being above all else and only answerable to 'God'. Not for the faint-hearted, but eye-opening all the same.
giovannadiniz Not bad, not good. it is a good drama, but with many flaws. dakota and guy are great actors, but i find the plot appealing TOO MUCH. about kit harington: the impression is that they put him in the cast just to fill sausage, unfortunately nothing had to add useful to the plot.
