Very nice, emotional and sometime even sad movie. The acting was brilliant. I'm not a big Meryl Streep fan but she's very talented and looked stunning here. Amy Adams was no less imressive - she deserved the Oscar for this supporting role and finally Philip Seymour Hoffman and Viola Davis were amazing as well
One of the BEST films to come out of Hollywood in decades.So it didn't have any car-chasers,nor did it have any sex scenes,or an abundance of swearing,drugs,violence etc.THAT'S what made this a simply stunning film.Streep was riveting,& scarey as hell,lol.PSH & Amy Adams were equally amazing.All in all this had me on the edge of my seat.Those who found it boring or not 'active' enough simply didn't 'get' the story! Also,knowing the mentality of nuns from that era would help!
I think the priest is innocent. He moved away not because he was guilty, rather He just want things and nonsense accusation get done. This will be proven by the line he said to sister Aloysius "I will not fight you " . The priest fatherly loved the boy and give sympathy to him because of the situation.
This had to be one of the dumbest movies I have ever seen. It was so boring, and the entire thing felt so pointless! I learned nothing from it, because there was no form of a lesson presented to the audience. How the heck did it have 5 academy award nominations? It was terrible.
Love this movie, love the characters in it, they're all so experienced actors! Feel so sad the movie is like 1.5 hours, too short for me to enjoy their acting.
Ok, according to John Patrick Shanley (the author), the ending is intentionally left vague as to what Meryl Streep meant by saying she has doubts. It is left to the viewer to draw their own conclusions and to question why would they answer that way. In other words, why are you so certain that the priest was guilty; or why did it bother to think he was falsely accused. The play was intented to make us examine ourselves and how we view situations such as this.
i have seen this movie and as soon as meryl was on the screen, i just couldn't take my eyes off her. she is absoulutely fantastic in this movie! i just couldn't believe it!
Just saw this and watched it six times over the weekend. Meryl Streep gave what I think is her finest performance. One of those performances that a few actors have given in their 50s/60s when their every gesture, every expression, belongs to the character they play. I put her in the company of Katherine Hepburn in Lion and Winter and Anthony Hopkins in Remains of the Day.
I love the song that comes up at 2:12! I really want to know the name of it! And I really want to watch this movie lol. It looks really good. I already love it! 10/10 stars!
This movie was fantastic, couldn't have casted it better, the whole cast was great especially meryl streep is amazing. I love how it leaves the audience unsure as to the answers. It leaves the audience with a little doubt on both sides
The priest was guilty. If you had watched the film you would have noted that she lied; Meryl's character lied about having called the Priest's last school and place of employment, and when he left he indirectly admitted to wrong doing...
I like how the message can be applied to many different things. Anyone who gossips and is malicious or condescending or thinks they are so certain should see this film. Also, it's sad just how many women are as aggressive and manipulative as Sister Aloysius.
I think the movie makes it clear, at least indirectly so, that the priest is NOT actually guilty. I don't think, as some might be suggesting, that it leaves it open for us to decide.
first of all youre suppose to decide for yourself if he's gulity or not cuz the movie gives you enough evidence for both, and at the end where she says she has doubts, its not about whether the priest is guilty or not, she's having doubts about her religion.
There really is no way to tell.. from the film. It leaves the issue "open" or ambivalent. Different people will fall on different sides, but there is no real way to know for certain just from what one sees. Very interesting film, and well done. Many WERE guilty; and surely there were instances of "false accusation" and misunderstanding.
The movie is great - human nature is cruel, bad and disgraceful and we have to work on improving oursleves. Unfortunately, the religious standards most of the time, do not alow us to tryly improve that nature - more just to cover it. It gives a service of cosmetics to a person... Religion as a teaching for moral purpose doesn't work...
Well, I am sorry to tell, you but by traveling a lot around the world and getting to know many religiuos countries... I came to the conclusion, that the most chaos, uncivilized behavior, dishonesty, crime and dissorder and in this worl exist in those countries where people talk a lot about GOD... eventualy this observation made me become antireligiuos.
Meryl was electrifying in this movie indeed....she deserved all that she won for this part and more....Phillip Seymour Hoffman was great as Father Flynn as well
I had seen DOUBT on a stage play wayback around 2007 and it was awesome, played by Cherie Gil (Streep's role), a famous Filipino actress (usually plays a villain role).
She did well, as a matter of fact. I love this story. We cannot actually conclude the ending because the story portrays itself as to be in DOUBT. It perked up one's imagination as to its finale. The end is how you want it to be in the absence of evidence.
The interpretation I took away from Streeps final lines that she has doubts-was NOT AT ALL that she doubted Father Flynns' guilt-but rather, she regretted going so far to push him out because like she said- he got a promotion and was now Pastor of another school -were no one could watch over him. Back in the 1960's no nun EVER stood up to a priest. NEVER. So- as she says-his resignation was his admission. An innocent priest would have had HER removed. .
THE PRIEST IS NOT GUILTY HE LEFT BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT PPL KNOWS BOUT THE BLACK KID SEXUAL ORIENTATION PLUS FOR HIS WeLFare...remenber when davis told streep dat his father beat him up and if the rumors were true he would kill him,etc...theres a lot of key elements in da movie 4 u 2 know who's innocent or guilty.plus she never had proof,just DOUBTS......IS UP 2 U!?
its not a crime to refer to him as a black kid. most of the kids in the trailer were white. if it was a movie with mostly black kids and one white you would say the "white kid".
ssab420....this movie is a great movie...i predict a movie that is going to be talked about for a long time....it probably "sucked" cuz you didnt pay attention and you expected it to be straight forward....a movie that leaves you thinking is a great movie. and if your not open to that...keep your comments to yourself cuz you're making yourself seem ignorant.
I dont think im ignorant, im just voicing my opinion...u liked the movie & i didnt. (and yes i did pay attention to the movie & yes i understood it) so maybe he was guilty or maybe he wasnt...hmmmm cant stop thinking about it.
you know what....some of these roles were great...angelina jolie, kate winslet and of course the legend meryl streep.
this movie was great; since it begins.....and honestly amy adams role was alot better than penelope cruz.
the intensity of the film is great and keeps the audience at the edge of their seats...but again....there were some great movies out last year...it was a tough competition
I agree. And while I think Kate Winslet did a wonderful job, her performance was hardly as electrifying as Meryl's...this is one of the best performances in film history, right along with Day Lewis' "There Will Be Blood"
while i agree religion has no place in the world since I'm an athiest . Its not religiion that spreads evil but the people who preech it and miss the point of the religion
well , there is one phrase that i like though , ive heard it somewhere from some horror movie it goes " evil is your creation " the main character said that to a church do and get punched after that
Exactly. In this case, Father Flynn was obviously guilty, but no one believed Sister Aloysius. And you know why? They didn't want it to be true. I'm not trying to be rude to ANYONE or any religion, but he totally got away with it, because he had allies; the other men in that church. Don't get me wrong, I love this movie completely, but the man was an absolute hypocrite, and a liar. He was so obvious about what he did it wasn't even funny.
Meryl "i will step outside the church if that what needs to be done, though the door should shut behind me, though i'm damed to hell! you should understand that, or you will mistake me."my favorite part of the movie
upshaw26 your the fuck up neither catholics nor any religon is a fuck the CHURCH is but just cause some priests rape and shit, doesnt mean its gods doing it just means there is no exception for human evil. the curch may be corrupt but religon is not.
this film does not talk abotu whats really going on meanwhile how many priest walk aroudn free after years of touching little kids i bet you go to chruch dont you?? if so ur just a sheep who needs to open ur eyes to whats really going on?? do you give chruch money? you know thats all bullshit rite they just want ur money!
I just saw this film a few days ago and I have not been able to stop thinking about it since. I think the movie really tests your compassion and tolerance. Having read a few reviews I now believe that the priest was gay, and that was the reason he was driven out of other parishes.
All in all a top movie - I cant wait to watch it again!!
The priest wasn't gay!! The priest was a good man.. The reason he was driven out is because that lady was nuts. That is why she said ''I doubt'' at the end of the movie.. I am not angry at the nun for doing that but that priest was such a good man.. When he hugged the black kid he showed that everyone is equal.
meanwhile how many priest walk aroudn free after years of touching little kids i bet you go to chruch dont you?? if so ur just a sheep who needs to open ur eyes to whats really going on?? do you give chruch money? you know thats all bullshit rite they just want ur money!
you miss the point of the movie! he show guilt by transferring schools! if he had nothing to hide the truth would have set him free!! she had no evidence and only her certainty and he know that! the kid is gay and priest know that fact! it not trying to paint Christian are bad people but the reality that we live in!
such a great bobie.. i mean movie..sorry..no really. it's a great movie, i think the movie theme was not a critic no catholism or church (directly) the obejtive was to show the humanism in people, their problems like the priest, the black family or the mother superior..
um no.. That film did focus on that but this film was greatly influenced on catholocism.. This is our true religion.. All other religions fuck up the world. Sorry for the language.
I was reading some comments about the movie, and some people were saying that "DOUBT" is a cheap-Hollywood movie and it also insults the Catholic church.
I think that this movie shows REALISM!
I do not want to GENERALIZE, but unfortunatelly that's what happens in the Catholic church!
I worked as an altar-boy when I was younger, and I have many friends who were sexually abused, and afterwards were blackmailed by the priest/pastor.
I was an alterboy all through grade school and served Mass for some of the most holy and devout priests. Priest who give their life to Christ and his Church. There is no doubt the sex abuse scandal was terrible, but thankfully, there are more solid men in the preisthood than perverts. This looks like a good movie, but Diary of a Country Priest is much better.
She had doubts because she didn't have sufficient proof. I'm convinced that he was guilty of molesting the blond kid & it was only a matter of time before he started on the black kid, assuming he hadn't done anything to him already.
I hope this movie shows the realistic side of things cause in reality when you mess with black peoples children in this nasty way, you dont live long enough to argue your case instead you get a free one way ticket to meet your creator.
Would not be surprised if Streep, Hoffman, and Adams take 3 of the 4 Acting awards for Oscar this year. My heart wants Mellisa Leo --- but Streep IS phenomanel!
Ok, I watched the movie yestarday. Check it out....was def interesting. Why Viola Davis received a golden globe & sag award nominations are not quite clear to me.
the movie was fantastic. also, it's based on a play so you might want to take it up with the playwright (for those of you who think it's just a bullshit hollywood movie). it's about philisophical issues and the human condition; it just so happens that the story aspect involves the church, etc. Try not to be so quick to judge: you might be missing out on something good.
Why not chill and enjoy two great performances by Meryl Streep and Phillip Seymour Hoffman. We have had it up to our asses with this ridiculous war. If you want to spend your time stressing over the war in irak and Gauntanamo then by all means do. Since 2001 one we have all been under a dark cloud. Let's all get back to enjoying life and let our crooked government do what they will. They will do it anyway. With or without the blessing of the American People. This will be a great film. can't wait
Last time I checked calling someone a retard wasn't taken as a joke. I think you are taking this to heart too much and are getting too much into it. There's no need for your harsh comments. Just leave it alone.
I think you have some personal prblems that need to be resolved. Apparantly you are not comfortable losing an arguement. I think you need to do the growing up and stop fighting with a 17 year-old.
Meryl is the best!!!!!! Her acting is amazing!!!!! After being nominated and missing out on an oscar 10 times since her last oscar win in 1983 (for Sophie's Choice) it would be interesting to see her acceptence speech if she ever wins another oscar. I think her acting looks amazing in this film!

I was an alterboy all through grade school and served Mass for some of the most holy and devout priests. Priest who give their life to Christ and his Church. There is no doubt the sex abuse scandal was terrible, but thankfully, there are more solid men in the preisthood than perverts. This looks like a good movie, but Diary of a Country Priest is much better.

The priest did not sexually abuse the kid.. He was set up!! THat is why the nun said " I Doubt" at the end of the film.

She had doubts because she didn't have sufficient proof. I'm convinced that he was guilty of molesting the blond kid & it was only a matter of time before he started on the black kid, assuming he hadn't done anything to him already.

DOUBT is one of the most powerful movies I have ever seen!
Meryl Streep is AMAZING! (as always)!
But, I also would like to give credits to Sister James and to the priest. All of them did such a GREAT job!

I hope this movie shows the realistic side of things cause in reality when you mess with black peoples children in this nasty way, you dont live long enough to argue your case instead you get a free one way ticket to meet your creator.

Would not be surprised if Streep, Hoffman, and Adams take 3 of the 4 Acting awards for Oscar this year. My heart wants Mellisa Leo --- but Streep IS phenomanel!

The scene between Streep and Davis is nothing short of an earth shattering five minutes of raw power and emotion. This film was phenomenal!

the movie was fantastic. also, it's based on a play so you might want to take it up with the playwright (for those of you who think it's just a bullshit hollywood movie). it's about philisophical issues and the human condition; it just so happens that the story aspect involves the church, etc. Try not to be so quick to judge: you might be missing out on something good.

As soon as I watch the trailer I said:
One more boring movie manipulated by the media
That makes me sleep!
the child abuse scandal was manufactured by the media
Why not about Guantanamo?
Why not about torture in Irak?
Why not about the School of the Americas?

Why not chill and enjoy two great performances by Meryl Streep and Phillip Seymour Hoffman. We have had it up to our asses with this ridiculous war. If you want to spend your time stressing over the war in irak and Gauntanamo then by all means do. Since 2001 one we have all been under a dark cloud. Let's all get back to enjoying life and let our crooked government do what they will. They will do it anyway. With or without the blessing of the American People. This will be a great film. can't wait

OK lets BE Catholic and not insult people, especially a fellow Catholic. Secondly, its HARD to tell if its sarcasm or not by just reading words.
clarinet001 3 years ago
ok lets learn to take a joke. I don't care if your insulted because thats your own deal.
mugmugmug11 3 years ago
Last time I checked calling someone a retard wasn't taken as a joke. I think you are taking this to heart too much and are getting too much into it. There's no need for your harsh comments. Just leave it alone.
clarinet001 3 years ago
grow up.
mugmugmug11 3 years ago
I think you have some personal prblems that need to be resolved. Apparantly you are not comfortable losing an arguement. I think you need to do the growing up and stop fighting with a 17 year-old.
clarinet001 3 years ago
an argument? i think you need to resolve some of your own fuckin mental problems if you think this is an argument.
OH MY GOD YOUR 17?!?! shit im shaking in my shoes.

Meryl is the best!!!!!! Her acting is amazing!!!!! After being nominated and missing out on an oscar 10 times since her last oscar win in 1983 (for Sophie's Choice) it would be interesting to see her acceptence speech if she ever wins another oscar. I think her acting looks amazing in this film!
