Critics' Reviews

80
LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Thomas
Has the gritty, intimate feel of an Eastern European film--and packs the power of a genuine revelation.Read Full Review »
75
Philadelphia Inquirer: Carrie Rickey
So profoundly does The Third Miracle live up to its title that Agnieszka Holland's exceptional meditation upon a priest's crisis of faith might win the endorsement of archdiocese and agnostic alike.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
Here is a rarity, a film about religion that is neither pious nor sensational, simply curious. No satanic possessions, no angelic choirs, no evil spirits, no lovers joined beyond the grave. Just a man doing his job.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Stephen Holden
This intelligent, well-acted movie is not helped by the fact that its story in some ways parallels that of "Stigmata," the trashy supernatural spookfest that flared briefly at the box office earlier this year.Read Full Review »

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lisa Schwarzbaum
Suggests that finding one good priest is a feasibility, but it takes a miracle to meet one as hubba-hubba as Ed Harris.Read Full Review »
50
Village Voice: J. Hoberman
The first half has a nifty B-movie feel--it's a canny little movie with a big, big theme.Read Full Review »
50
Boston Globe: Jay Carr
Takes on provocative and stimulating subject matter, but can't bring it into satisfying dramatic focus, stranding three strong actors who are superior to their material.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Desson Thomson
I'd give this movie about half a miracle.Read Full Review »
