Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The first must-see film of the year.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

While 'Pilgrimage' is much better than expected in many areas, especially for a low-budget medieval drama, it falls short in two of the most crucial aspects of any film - the development of the storyline and characters. The story just isn't up to the standard needed for a film. It's too generic and completely forgettable. The action scenes are few and far between and, while they are well produced, they don't make up for the many lulls and dull patches the film goes through.It's a similar story with the characters. They are bland and uninteresting, with next to no character development. If the characters aren't intended to be the focus of the film, then the plot should at least be good enough to make up for it. Unfortunately it isn't and the film just ends up being boring. The best thing about 'Pilgrimage' is the cinematography and overall production value - it feels like a much more expensive production than it actually is.

A great story to start with.Acting and directing together was the wind under the wings of this movie.But less can be written on characterization.In fact,some of the actors did not to me resemble actual monks and Christians.But in all I can say that it was a nice movie and deserves better.

about duty and faith and fundamental decisions.dark, cruel, bitter, poetic. for the embroidery of Gaelic, French and English, for landscapes, for a surprising Tom Holland, for memories about films of Herzog using Kinski in not very different films, for the illusion of exploration of XIII century basic traits, for the simplicity of story and the science to not be victim of comfortable clichés. and, maybe, too, for the feeling after its end. a good essay. this is the reasonable definition for "Pilgrimage" who could be appreciated for the fight scenes, for the religious side, for the decent sketch of a period, without ignore the not high historical accuracy, for the use of delicate themes, from the past to the holy relics, in an interesting manner.

I've gone for this movie with no expectations based on its rating ,, but I was really surprised .. This movie is really Powerful that after its end it would make you think for a while about your convictions or the principles of your beliefs . * maybe not going wrong with them but just questioning *It discusses things not about religion but particularly the way of Religious speech and people who may control the message of religions in general ( Not Christianity in particular ) and how politics also may affect how things work .. The acting is very good especially that of Jon Bernthal ( The Mute ) .. The music is well played as well as the picture ,, Great Atmosphere of that period of time ( 13th century ) with bloody violent action scenes which were really well performedThis is my first movie of the director Brendan Muldowney and I think it won't be the last .. Great Job Overall I liked nearly everything about the movie . If you're interested in that period of time and historical movies , Just go for it ..
