No, but the review “made the age-old debate over good vs. evil crystal clear” is incongruous with the movie’s moral ambiguity.

is catholicism wholly inconsistent with moral ambiguity? not to my knowledge. there are many morally ambiguous characters in that book. in both the old and new testaments. its full of characters who are flawed, and ask to forgive and/or be forgiven.

It's mostly worked so far, so I can only come to the conclusion that this film is probably a bit crap.
