Heretic
As someone who is deeply anti-religion…I thought this movie was brilliant. I know many people would disagree with my high rating, but Heretic made me pause, and really think about the words being presented to me. I loved the elaborate, long game of a plot, and as always, A24 has enough money for the movie to be visually appealing.
While the ending left me confused, I loved the message and showcase that religion is nothing make than a means of control. We believe what we want to believe. We see what we want to see.
I’m very impressed, and I think it’s one of the best movies I’ve seen in a while. I regret not watching it sooner.
