"The ending leaves something to be desired, but the film is anchored by several strong performances and a well-plotted script by Chad Taylor." - Roger Taggart, Chicago Tribune
"Ari Aster, with his biggest canvas yet, brings his unsettling tone to the world of the church-setting of Chad Taylor's script." - Audrey Columbus, Collider
"While Aster's film feels cold at times, it uses the performances of its talented cast to paint a portrait of a real-life problem." - Desmond Rogers, TIME Magazine
