Movie Reviews

Financial Times - 10/10 by Nigel AndrewsThis is a tremendous documentary: at once cool and scalding, outraged and meticulous; a must-see for everyone, both inside and outside the "House of God".
Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA shocking and poignant documentary about the Catholic Church's cover-up of sexual abuse and the victims who heroically came forward to break their silence.
AV Club - 9/10 by Alison WillmoreMea Maxima Culpa is not gentle about placing blame on a structure that elevates priests above the rest of mankind and prioritizes maintaining an appearance of pious perfection over addressing some grievous wrongs committed.
Film Comment Magazine - 9/10 by Meredith SlifkinWell done and compelling, and at its strongest when focusing on the bravery of these four deaf men who broke the silence.
Paste Magazine - 9/10 by Emily KirkpatrickEven though Mea Maxima Culpa can be incredibly sad and frustrating, the film is able to go beyond the tragedy of these boys' lost childhoods, using that empathy to incite anger, impatience and action in its audience.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertGiven the grievousness of their sins, one wonders why the church continues to shelter them. Might it not be more appropriate to excommunicate them, and refer them to the attention of the civil authorities?
ComingSoon.net - 9/10 by Edward DouglasPowerful enough to leave you wondering whether the Catholic Church will ever stop protecting child molesters.
PopMatters - 9/10 by Cynthia FuchsThe past persists, and in Mea Maxima Culpa, it finds powerful expression.
Urban Cinefile - 9/10 by Andrew L. UrbanWith meticulous care and intricate detail, Silence In The House of God deconstructs the nature of the Catholic Church's systematic cover ups of pedophilia among their clergy, stretching back well into the past century
The List - 8/10 by Tom DawsonDetails the ways, in the face of devastating evidence, that the Catholic Church attempted to cover-up a priest's serial criminality.
