"Nice story but I found it very slow - upsetting that these incidents continue to occur till 1998"

"Slow Burn True Story!! Cillian Murphy was outstanding as usual with an incredible performance! The pacing will bother some people, but for me, it played out beautifully! Highly Recommend 9/10"

"If you’re unfamiliar with the Magdalene laundries, it would be helpful to consume a few documentaries about it. The book was released not long after they discovered the mass grave at Tuam and the movie is an Irish movie for an Irish audience, so, if you have no knowledge of what happened, it might go over your head. Delicious, though. I love this. I wasn’t angry with what was different between the movie and the book, and Cillian Murphy and Emily Watson were so good."
