- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsJust watched it again for the second time. Powerfully touching and horrifying at the same time, because it’s a true story. Great performance by Judi Dench.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsBeautifully acted by Judy Dench and to a lesser extent Steve Coogan. A powerful tear jerker of a film. Well worth watching. Judy Dench is so good.
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsThis was such an exceptional movie with great acting and storyline. It was so intense and sad; definitely a tear jerker. Judi Dench was superb as usual. It's a must see.
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsa touching story served by actors with finesse and sobriety
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsA touching and significant movie. But it is undermined if one understands it's frequent manipulation of the "true story".
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsOften the film becomes a bit too heavy handed, especially in the flashbacks, but when the focus is on the odd and effective pairing of Coogan and Dench its more grounded in real substance and becomes rather moving.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsJust a perfect film and story with bravura performances by Dench and Coogan! Have tissues handy!
- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsNuns should be the repressed ones. Not us.
