Today's Movie: Pilgrimage


Pilgrimage is a 2017 film starring Tom Holland, Richard Armitage, and Jon Bernthal.

Set in Ireland in 1209, during the Crusades, the heart of the plot revolves around some monks simply getting a sacred relic from Point A to Point B. I did like a lot about this movie; most of the acting is pretty good, I thought the film was well shot, and I really liked the ending. That being said, it's one I'd have a hard time recommending to a lot of people. Even though it's only about an hour and a half long, it does feel a bit slow at times. Also, in addition to being a film with a subject matter that doesn't have the broadest appeal, a decent chunk of the film is subtitled. I'm fine with this and I thought the story was interesting overall but, I know for a lot of people this is not something they're going to be into. 

I'm not really sure who the target audience for this one was, but I was entertained enough to give this one a 3 out of 5.
