He was the second son of a dead father, his twin brother was a priest and his mother lived alone in the village. It all happened on his return journey home from a successful business trip which was sure to place a smile on his mother’s face and enrich his pockets. He never made it home that night!!!
The Movie is divided into four parts Anathema 1-4.

-Story: [3 out of 5] I’d have to say that the story for this movie was pretty engaging from the start to the finish.
-Originality: [4 out of 5] I can honestly say that I’ve never seen anything like this before
-Predictability: [4 out of 5] The end of this movie is not what anyone predicted. Not only is it not predictable, it’s also not palatable.
-Directing/Editing: [1 out of 5] There is a scene in which a bus driver is made to drive over people laying on the floor and as he does this their blood splatters around the place. My candid advise to graphic designers is “if you are not sure that you can do it then please don’t” Find a way of conveying the message without showing it because the blood splattering scene was too fake. My final aggravation is with the length of this movie. No!!! It is not too long, however, each part of this movie was 20 minutes long, I mean there were literally six scenes only in the first part of the movie. Somebody tell me why it wasn’t all combined into part 1 alone (or worst case scenario, part one and two). Finally, I don’t get how a man is still able to speak after being stabbed six times ???
-Acting Quality: [3 out of 5] Great cast
-Settings and Costumes: [2 out of 5] appropriate
-Soundtrack [3 out of 5] ok
