Father Stu

« Porté par l'enthousiasme de Mark Wahlberg, Father Stu - produit par le comédien parce qu'aucun studio ne voulait le financer - , est un "biopic" chrétien qui apparaît aussi convaincu que peu convaincant. »

« Wahlberg and Mel Gibson both seem to be chasing on-screen rehabilitation for off-screen misdeeds in an above-average faith-based melodrama. »

« It goes further into religious feeling than you expect, but you wish the drama were less sketchy. »

« Still, speaking as a fairly non-religious person who hasn't been in church for a couple of decades, I found Father Stu to be an enjoyable watch with two pretty perfect performances from Wahlberg and Gibson, both of whom are at their best here. It's well-worth checking out. »

« Although this true story (even if embellished a bit by the filmmakers) inevitably builds some emotion, it ends up feeling more banal than spiritually exalting. »
