Moviegoers are saying
Saint Clare divides audiences with its Joan of Arc-coded revenge fantasy about a teenage vigilante eliminating terrible men, carried by Bella Thorne's committed performance despite polarizing execution. While some celebrate its feminist rage and Thorne's underrated acting, others criticize the incoherent storytelling, disorienting Dutch angles, and lazy murder sequences.

    Terrible film, we see a murderous woman who sees ghosts and the murders are lazy, the ghosts contribute nothing and the story is terrible.

    Teenage girls are sure going nuts with these lip fillers. Oh wait, the teenager is played by a 28 year old actress??? Also I nearly got sea sick with the camera doing a new Dutch Angle every few seconds.

    A Joan of Arc-coded queen of killing terrible men? Sign me up. If you can get over some weird dialogues and some mince tertiary character, you can have some good fun with Saint Clare. ✨️ Movies by Women Bella Thorne puts this movie on her back big time. NOTE: This is…

    Saint Clare

    This was a great movie. The story was enjoyable and drew me in and it did a great job as a thriller movie. It dabbles some humor along the way as well which makes the watch even better!

Saint Clare will sneak up on you as it did me. It’s a murder mystery with dark horrors and giggles blended delectably.

The spirit of religious promise that Perione’s film introduces goes quizzically betrayed. What ensues becomes an attempted campy teen thriller, but without the tension or reward.

It seems unsure whether it wants to be a campy slice of macabre in the vein of Dexter and American Horror Story, where the religious imagery and bloodletting are played for both chills and thrills, or a genuine rumination on death, faith, and the morality of doing bad things to bad people.
