I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

If you search for 'The Confession (2011)' on here you will find that there is actually two hits for that, and both with the same poster and actors, director etc.The difference is one is listed as a TV-series and one as a movie.So what differs the 2? Well, not that much in fact nothing from what I've gathered you see 'The Confession (2011)' was originally a 10 part web-series with each episode being 6 minutes long and this movie is merely all 10 parts put together.Now the good news is that the flow between the parts is pretty effortless, in fact I was a bit surprised when it turned out to be the case (regarding the movie being a 10 part series).So yeah it works fine as a 1 hour long movie.The only reason I gave it a 5 (I was debating whether or not it was worth a 6 or not) is because there were moments where I lost interest a little bit and the (meant to be) powerful ending wasn't all that gripping to me.That said the acting is fine (although tbh at times it felt like Kiefer Sutherland was playing Jack Bauer and not a completely different character), it's mainly a character-study drama of a hit-man but it has some moments of suspense as well, some flashbacks and stuff.So nothing amazing but if you're a huge fan of Kiefer Sutherland and John Hurt I'd say it could be worth a look.

Five stars just for the good plot twist. Oh, and for Sean Callery soul, I mean: sound.But to put both shooting fiction and religious fiction together is a problem, because for shooting actors need not to handle guns upside down to make the shooting obviously fictitious, but they need to do it with religious behavior to make it fictitious.And even some catholics will not grasp it, because the church is real, the confession spot is real, the vestment is real, and all the secondary doctrinal stuff are real. JUST what is really central, the real core of Christianism it put upside down, if not just OUT.So, watched the film and still need to know what? Ask ANY father, because not ONE of them would miss it is and behave like that, even if such kind of plot was real - because it not rarely IS.

This web series is a great show......I love every second of it... I really enjoyed all the conversations between the confessor and the priest. It is really profound and in-depth dialogue, I wish more people would watch this web series. I would want to see it on TV as well but I guess there is not enough time. I can only hope this web series expands into a 30 minute or 1 hour episodes in future so that it can be shown on TV as well. I am positive it can be done if all the flashbacks are expended to form complete stories on their own with more action,drama, and dirty works about their (the confessor and the priest) past, present and future. Once again, it is a great series and I want to see more minutes of it.

I love the seasons of "24" so I wanted to see Keifer Sutherland in another role. His character is similar to that of his "Jack Bauer" character but different enough to still be interesting. I like the unfolding "self realizations." Good plot, some surprises I didn't see coming which adds excitement. I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes but with each one were at least a little longer. Keifer Sutherland is perfect for this role and the confession aspect of the series is new and different to me. The church and confessional bring a quiet depth to this series. I love the flashbacks and hope their frequency increases as the chapters unfold.If I had to sum up The Confession in a couple of words I would say it is intriguing with mysterious depth.
