Its a bit difficult for me to rate this because of the Christian elements which I clearly don't get, as a non-Christian and not knowing the history of European christianity.
The movie is a bit slow, the lead character Grace is just wandering the abbey for 50 mins of the movie. She has come here after she is informed about her brother's suicide.
We get to know of her traumatic childhood of a half-crazed father abusing her and rest of the family, in the end stabbing her mother.
Then we have these shots of medieval age where some knights are the visiting this abbey.
The last 30 mins ,where some action happens, left with me lot of questions. Maybe someone who knows Christian theology may have understood what the hell is happening.
The odd part is that the movie doesn't take a stand on who is the bad person here, the church or Grace which makes me give them some points.
