Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
All three stars do smart, honorable work.

TIME Magazine,

rotten:
While Agnes of God has been considerably opened up, it is actually muddled in its transfer from stage to screen.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
8 May 2013
rotten:
Despite all the anguished huffing and puffing, there isn't a single authentic moment in it.
– Dave Kehr,

fresh:
It is Meg Tilly who makes the movie live. Her performance, which works on both realistic and symbolic levels, allows you to believe in the story.
– Jay Boyar,
Orlando Sentinel,

rotten:
Agnes of God plays with some challenging ideas and some sensationalistic events, but ultimately it fails to earn its right to toy with such subjects.
