I was wondering whether Russell Crowe could act with an Italian accent without it sounding corny. Your review makes me want to take a leapt of faith and give the film a watch.
I think it’s my favorite Crowe character. The movie had absolutely everything one expects from an exorcist movie. I’ve seen about every one made and Crowe definitely played my favorite of the priests. The character felt fleshed and real.
@Cain ! yes of course, but unfortunately there are a lot of people that will put trust in their faith/fears/superstition before seeking actual professional help.
I actually enjoyed this movie 😬 I loved Crowe’s take on being a priest and he made me laugh a few times. It was entertaining, not necessarily scary or creepy but definitely fun to watch. The ending felt rush but it was decent nonetheless!
Movies are not scary if you watched too many horror films. I haven't been scared watching a movie since the 80s. I remember when I was a kid and I would wrap a blanket around my neck at night so no one could slice my throat while I was asleep. They used to be scary, but when you grow up and find out there's real things to be scared of these movies lose their effect. Still a damn good movie though 👌
except for ed warren, he was the only non-priest that the vatican allowed to perform exorcisms but i think he still needed a priest with him while performing the exorcism
@@endor8witch The official Rite of Exorcism is very clear about who can perform exorcisms: “A priest-one who is expressly and particularly authorized by the Ordinary [local bishop].”This means that no lay person and no priest not so authorized can perform this reserved Rite. Moreover, the Rite mentions that the priest “must be properly distinguished for his piety, prudence, and integrity of life. He should fulfill this devout undertaking in all constancy and humility… he ought to be of mature years, and revered not alone for his office but for his moral qualities.”
@@marcnicolet2092 exactly. every faith has some sort of exorcism rite. Even the Native Americans have prayers to cast out evil spirits. That alone itself proves that evil exists and is universal.
Exorcism movies, like this one, are interesting for me to watch. Some of these really show the acting range of the involved actors/actresses, production quality, and the execution of storytelling.
I keep hearing "He'll defriend you." When they say, "You know what will happen if the devil possess the Pope's Exercist?" Like the devil is using the exercist as a stepping stool to meet the Pope.
Ok I’ve come across a movie I feel is very deserving of one of your videos, it’s called “Frailty” starring the late Bill Paxton and Mathew McConaughey, it’s about a boys father who gets a message from god to destroy Demons (people) and his son coming to grips with his father’s insanity, really underrated film, and the way it ends makes the who movies worth watching again, please at least look into it.

when i watch this movie, at first i didnt know if this was supposed to be a parody. the humour tend to poke fun at exorcism itself and the tone seems abit mixed and confusing. also something i noticed with exorcism movies...if the demon is strong enough to use telekinesis to throw things around, why not...like i dunno explode the arteries in the exorcist's body, or use a sharp object to slice their throat, like why even allow yourself to be tormented by the exorcist? lol it's always so weird and nonsensical to me. all the demons do are talk and act like a petulant child being forced to take their meds.
While I am hardly religious... I've seen things I cannot explain and acts of evil I wish I hadn't. I was born to Catholic parents, baptized and confirmed. I haven't been an "active" catholic for years... However I will always remember my mother's words. Forget the dogma and do's and don't's of it. If there's truly a loving and fair almighty being judging us all. It's better to be a just, righteous and moral man and find out the almighty doesn't exist than be an evil man and find out he does....
have you had objects move on their own? have you had things strangely stop working when they have worked perfectly fine? have you heard voices and seen apparitions? I'm just merely curious
On the one hand I really hope they do a couple sequels following the two priest visiting the other locations, but I don’t want them to risk making a mockery of the man behind the story. But a film series about exorcist hunting down locations of fallen angels sounds pretty entertaining an adventure
I never watch these kinds of movies but I wanna see Maximus vs a demon 😂 Update: I watched it and it was quite good actually and these types of movies aren’t my thing
I went to this movie with 0 expectation and came out very entertained. One thing I like the most is the other priest is useful. Most of the time only the main character has the common sense and other people are useless at best, or even making things more difficult, which is very dumb and frustrating. Definitely one of the best exorcism movies in my book.
The origins of narcissism, that's where it comes from,pride,arrogance,control,abuse and no remorse,all the traits of malignant narcissists.psychopathic self lovers that can't love and funnily enough have every trait of the demonic.
I love this movie, the jokes are great, the characters feel real and relatable, and the scares are good. It's a movie that leaves me smiling after every watch. Now I just need to read the books, I hear their good.
That or the low level demon will think they can take down the Winchesters only meet their end at the barrel of the colt, Sam's knife, or Cas's blade. Because as we know Crowly was the only one to take them seriously.
Come on now folks, there is no objective evidence for anything supernatural and especially not any entity of any sort. Demons are just machinations of the fearful and gullible as well as those who seek to use the concept to control people such as the case of the Roman Catholic Cult, where the idea of possession seems to be an epidemic because of the insane influence of their delusional religious culture. I mean, you're all welcome to go ahead and evidence or prove the existence of demons but I doubt you can. No one has theoughout the entirety of human existence. 🤷♂️
The movie is really good. I don’t understand why this movie is not blockbuster. If I’m not mistaken there’s 199 demons out there that priest need to exterminate or need exorcism. So basically there’s part 2
Asmodeus is not a demon but one of the deadly sins specifically lust being the leader of the angels that created the giants and monsters that were wiped out during the great flood
Demons are literally fallen angels. In catholicism, all non-human spirits are either angels or fallen angels which are also called demons. Asmodeus may rule over the sin of lust but he is THE demon who rules over lust. All angels have functions and roles. Demons also still have roles after their fall. When it comes to angels who stayed with God, one example is Raphael whose purpose is to heal or teach medicine to humans.
I'll tell ya something man when I lived in Coffs Harbour Australia I seen Russel a few times out and about pretty chill guy aye plus his love and ownership of South Sydney Rabbitohs our NRL team was awesome but definitely a cool dude and quoting romper stomper to him he seemed to find that funny but his tip toe in to the horror genre has been awesome cheers to the gladiator 🤟
3:00 I don't want to question the work of the priest, but the fact that ordinary people are sitting there with him, who have no idea what the devil is capable of, says something.
You don't need to worry, that clip was taken from a phony documentary saying demons are real, asking credible professionals (e.g. doctors) if possessions are real and heavily twisting their responses, with an ending saying despite filming absolutely everything they turned their camera off and suddenly were immediately attacked by demons. Furthermore, the clips used of the 'possession' are edited themselves to make them seem scarier, with the original footage just showing a woman acting crazy without the distorted screaming
I find myself wondering sometimes if our ancestors really did know some things that we just pass off as silly superstition. Evil is real but I don't know where it comes from.
Without a doubt, thays why people took religion uber seriously , and why there's so many history regarding the angels and the archdevils because these thins really did happen
He is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And he will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
Being a Christian myself, learning more about Catholicism, I always find these types of media interesting. I believe demons are real, but I can’t say I’ve ever had direct contact with one. Movies about exorcisms often make demons seem so unreal that nobody takes them seriously, but this one being directly from the priest’s perspective makes a much more compelling film
Honestly, as a historian, I would take what happened during the Spanish Inquisition with a grain of salt. It was actually nowhere near as bad as we are told it was, but the reason we have this idea that the Spanish Inquisition was so horrific and awful is because we were all suckered in by Protestant propagandists from 500 years ago. With the invention of the printing press, Protestant reformers decided to launch a smear campaign against the Spanish. And it was so effective that we are still feeling its effects centuries later. That isn’t to say that people weren’t tortured. Yes, there were people who died under torture or even burned at the stake. Yet the targets were Jews and Muslims who converted to Christianity, but were suspected of secretly retaining their old faiths. So, why weren’t the numbers of deaths so large as we believe? That’s because many of the Jews and Muslims who lived in Spain escaped persecution by fleeing across the straits to North Africa, where they had family and relatives there. For, in Islam, Jews are considered “People of the Book”, and could practice their faith as long as they pay the Jiziya tax. The Jews living in Morocco found professions as merchants, seafarers and even as privateers. For more information on this, feel free to consult the Extra History series on Jewish Pirates.
The demon said, "We wanted our freedom before you got here." This statement intrigued me. What happened before Adam and Eve? When did Lucifer plan his cue? Are you allowed to ask questions like this? About what happened? Seems like a perfect opportunity and probably wouldn't take much insincere flattery on your part to learn something no one would ever be privy to. Fascinating.
Ironic, a Catholic priest condemning paganistic rituals and the like; claiming it a lure to demonic possession, when the very Catholic dogma itself is littered with paganistic ritual. Unsurprising, given that the word Catholic means "Universal" meaning essentially so long as it makes them look good - anything goes.
@M_ D Christian and Catholics are not the same thing. Catholics say they worship god but firectly contradict the bible and practice pagan practices under the guide of 'Catholicism' . Christmas is nothing more then a dogma of pagan worship, anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.
@M_ D whether people are religious or not, history has proven falleable, not absolutely, but more then enough to give people the evidence to question all narratives.
I just watched this movie since it came into my country's Netflix a few days ago. I actually enjoyed it as much as I'm not the biggest fan of the plot. Crowe and the rest of the cast did a great job. And yes I'm glad they emphasised how often the cases referred are just people who need psych help. And the actual possessions are the very few.
While I agree that the majority of possessions are cases of mental illness I do believe in the existence of demons, possession, heaven, hell, God, the devil, and exorcism. Like all things, while real life is never quite as stylish or black and white as the movies, there’s still shreds of truth that lie beneath these films
As much as you go to enjoy an entertaining movie, these days seems many of them wanna shove their ideas and message in your face. I'll take a good entertaining movie like this over many of the crap out now. Also, I know horror has to have a little gore in it. But it is possible to make a good scary movie with out it also. This doesn't seem too gore filled. Definitely adding to watch list. Great vid again!
In the real world the "possessed" would be far better served with mental health workers. Not some priest with a history of making up stories about how great he is at removing demons
Man, if someone believes deeply enough, maybe an exorcism can help them, regardless of what was causing their suffering. I don't know enough about it to say one way or the other, though. Might do more harm than good..🤔
@@blitzphantom9488 The illusion that exorcism works on people with a disease experiencing supposed symptoms of possession can be attributed to the placebo effect. However, there are 370,000 reported cases of people killed during exorcism and another 310,000 reported injuries. These numbers are an underestimate as there are still unreported fatal cases in many rural areas of developing countries where mental illness is stigmatized. Scientifically, demonic possession is not a valid psychiatric or medical diagnosis recognized by either the DSM-V or ICD-10.
This movie was more funny than scary. I had a fun time, no doubt there. It's like a parody of the late Father Amorth. Distasteful or not, eh I think it was alright.
it was a great movie with beautiful locations... usually not into exorcism movies but this was was top notch. Russel Crowe gave amazing performance. it's not easy to do fake Italian accent whole movie so good and not so cringe. he really nailed it and the unique personality of this character.
strange how the catholic church can battle demons/evil and apparently do a great job yet seemingly find it impossible and beyond their abilities to stop the inherent,and frequent,cases of child/sexual abuse commited by their non demon very much human employees .. tell me im wrong
NONE of the movies about Ed and Lorraine is fake. Yes the directors did add things and jazz it up to make it more dramatic. But the stories themselves are 100% real.

The demon said, "We wanted our freedom before you got here." This statement intrigued me. What happened before Adam and Eve? When did Lucifer plan his cue? Are you allowed to ask questions like this? About what happened? Seems like a perfect opportunity and probably wouldn't take much insincere flattery on your part to learn something no one would ever be privy to. Fascinating.
Ironic, a Catholic priest condemning paganistic rituals and the like; claiming it a lure to demonic possession, when the very Catholic dogma itself is littered with paganistic ritual.
Unsurprising, given that the word Catholic means "Universal" meaning essentially so long as it makes them look good - anything goes.
Dead on, people are totally ignorant to the Catholic history. Constantine, need I say more.
@Ксенія♡укр it's hypocrisy.
@@Availbillity Christianity was around long, long before Constantine. He had less to do with it than people want to admit.
@M_ D Christian and Catholics are not the same thing. Catholics say they worship god but firectly contradict the bible and practice pagan practices under the guide of 'Catholicism' . Christmas is nothing more then a dogma of pagan worship, anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.
@M_ D whether people are religious or not, history has proven falleable, not absolutely, but more then enough to give people the evidence to question all narratives.
I just watched this movie since it came into my country's Netflix a few days ago. I actually enjoyed it as much as I'm not the biggest fan of the plot. Crowe and the rest of the cast did a great job. And yes I'm glad they emphasised how often the cases referred are just people who need psych help. And the actual possessions are the very few.
I just finished watching this movie. It was interesting & I enjoyed it
Hey long time no see!
"Right up your Abbey " I love it .
I can't wait to see with my bud tomorrow ☺️
Update: it was awesome
Ah Asmodeus is back at it again
I saw this movie a couple weeks ago on a long weekend. Was actually very impressed by Russel crow. One of my favorite performances of his
Was a dope movie explaining how the church was corrupted and all that boy business happened 😢
I liked when the demon asks the pope, "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?"
While I agree that the majority of possessions are cases of mental illness I do believe in the existence of demons, possession, heaven, hell, God, the devil, and exorcism.
Like all things, while real life is never quite as stylish or black and white as the movies, there’s still shreds of truth that lie beneath these films
As much as you go to enjoy an entertaining movie, these days seems many of them wanna shove their ideas and message in your face. I'll take a good entertaining movie like this over many of the crap out now. Also, I know horror has to have a little gore in it. But it is possible to make a good scary movie with out it also. This doesn't seem too gore filled. Definitely adding to watch list. Great vid again!
You realise creative work always says something, its not shoved in your face its called basic comprehension
Every movie has ideas you buffoon
I just saw this movie today! It was awesome :)
Great explanation, after watching i needed a bit of clarity which you provided...👍🏾👏🏿🙏🏾
In the real world the "possessed" would be far better served with mental health workers. Not some priest with a history of making up stories about how great he is at removing demons
And those that have been helped by exorcism?..
Yeah, Dr. Money was great.
Yes, because public mental health workers are known to be angels.
So they won with the power of friendship and emotional support? That’s the coolest horror premise ever.
[DOOM/Underworld/Warhammer40k] What If DOOM, Underworld And Warhammer 40k Took Place In Same Universe
Shit show of violence, I reckon the underworld groups would get decimated, idk be cool to see though !!
Great film! I really enjoyed it. Gripping. Crowe is extraordinary!
That exorcism video with that woman was cringey to watch. The Call of Duty zombie sound effects just made me laugh
I feel like Russell Crowe is getting more and more religious with his movies as he ages. Maybe just a trend I noticed.
Keep ‘em coming
Man, if someone believes deeply enough, maybe an exorcism can help them, regardless of what was causing their suffering. I don't know enough about it to say one way or the other, though. Might do more harm than good..🤔
There's been research done, and in the majority of cases it definitely does more harm. Unfortunately :/
@@Mindboggles Yeah, I'd definitely be concerned about it if it were a loved one.
Any exorcist will tell you the worst thing they can do is give an exorcism to a mentally ill person..
@@Mindboggles not really, but ok.
@@blitzphantom9488 The illusion that exorcism works on people with a disease experiencing supposed symptoms of possession can be attributed to the placebo effect. However, there are 370,000 reported cases of people killed during exorcism and another 310,000 reported injuries. These numbers are an underestimate as there are still unreported fatal cases in many rural areas of developing countries where mental illness is stigmatized. Scientifically, demonic possession is not a valid psychiatric or medical diagnosis recognized by either the DSM-V or ICD-10.
Pretty interesting. Can only speculate on events and demon 😈
I love your content
Thanks for tuning in!
Another excellent film to see Crowe's softer side is The Water Diviner
This movie was more funny than scary. I had a fun time, no doubt there.
It's like a parody of the late Father Amorth. Distasteful or not, eh I think it was alright.
it was a great movie with beautiful locations... usually not into exorcism movies but this was was top notch. Russel Crowe gave amazing performance. it's not easy to do fake Italian accent whole movie so good and not so cringe. he really nailed it and the unique personality of this character.
strange how the catholic church can battle demons/evil and apparently do a great job yet seemingly find it impossible and beyond their abilities to stop the inherent,and frequent,cases of child/sexual abuse commited by their non demon very much human employees .. tell me im wrong
Sounds more like a rabbi than a priest
What do you think about exploring Am from I have no mouth and I must scream?
Loved Russel in unhinged and virtuosity
At 6:47 people in next room probably thought it was a mass cod zombie game. 🤔😭
Men the final battle with asmodeus when all the symbols came out was baddass
He sure does love fightin’
That's all I heard in my head while I watched the movie last night 😂 C'mon Tugger 🤣
"Schizophrenia? You need an exorcism!"
That’s a very dumb statement.
@@blitzphantom9488 so is believing in demons 😂
@@Kyharra tell me you nothing about the subject without telling me.
@@blitzphantom9488 of course you'd say something cringey 😂
@@Kyharra nobody’s stopping you from not sounding like a idiot but you.
It’s nice to know according to the Bible no one has collective sins.
Sin, much like salvation, is a personal thing, it’s purely between you and God.
This reminds me of all those fake Ed & Lorraine movies😂
NONE of the movies about Ed and Lorraine is fake. Yes the directors did add things and jazz it up to make it more dramatic. But the stories themselves are 100% real.
@@dimetime35c he’s lost no point in explaining to him just like the rest of these lost people in the comments
Great video Thank you
Good to see the Inquisition taking care of the god emperors enemy's.

Can you do 'Primer' as that film nearly made me have an aneryusm
I LOVE THAT QUOTE "Did he allow that"
