View MoreIt is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
View MoreThis is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
View MoreIn the first place I was dragged down to the movies by my friends to see what they described as 'a really cool movie' and I was not at all looking forward to seeing it, thinking it would be just as dull as The Da Vinci Code. When I started watching it though I changed my mind. I thought it was suspenseful, interesting, intriguing with great pictures of the tomb. I think it's great that an 'amateur' like Ben Hammott could find something like that. He's just an ordinary guy who became interested in this mystery in this little village in France and decided to investigate.Me and my friends agree that it was an enjoyable and interesting film and I've recommended it to everyone I know. Well done guys for making such a good film, can't wait to see who's in the tomb and what all the artifacts are and I will keep checking the Bloodline website and Ben Hammott's one for updates - they're both really cool btw!Considering the huge budget that The Da Vinci Code had and the small budget that Bloodline had these guys have done an awesome job and should be proud of themselves for doing such a great film!
View MoreA super film which I recommend you go and see.When I first thought about going to see this film I checked the web for reviews and because of some of them were bad I nearly didn't go to see it but I am very glad I did. I don't know if these people writing the bad reviews are Christians or have even seen it, I know some of the worst comments are on Christian websites , and I have nothing against Christians or any other religion, and maybe they feel threatened by the subject matter of the film. I know the Vatican has already tried to dismiss the film as nonsense so this may have had an influence on some reviewers. Also there has been talk that some of the evidence is slightly shaky by some Renne-le-Château researchers, but then these researchers have their own research, book writing career, etc. to protect so their opinions are very bias against the film. Ignore everything you read about this film, good or bad, and just go and see it for yourself with an open mind. I read another comment in a review here about the cinema audience liking the film and I must agree, the same was with the people in the screening I saw. When the film was over 4 people, who had not seen the film, entered the cinema and started quoting scriptures from the bible. Needless to say they were booed constantly until they left. This is evidence that the Christian church are worried by this film and the questions it raises. I think all Christians should go and see Bloodline so they too can join in the debate that will surly follow over the coming months. It is a great film on more than one level and if the Vatican is worried by the points raised in the film then it must have been built on very shaky ground indeed. Perhaps it is time they come clean about some of the secrets they keep hidden away on the true story of their church. The present Pope only inherited the lies and I think it would make the church stronger if they were more open and honest about their history.
View MoreI was taken to the premiere of this film in NY by my boyfriend who is interested in this sort of thing, yawn. I have sat through many of his documentary films on TV so I wasn't looking forward to sitting through another at the cinema but as he had already brought the tickets I went with none of the enthusiasm he felt. But this all changed as soon as we entered the packed cinema, the atmosphere was electrifying and listening to all the others talking excitedly about the film, it wasn't long before I too became excited to see it.As soon as the film started I was drawn into the story, wanting, no hungering, to know more, hanging on every word that was said, and every image shown. I don't want to give anything away about the story here but the image at the end stayed with me long after the film had finished. When the film ended a wave of applause spread across the cinema by everyone in the room and I found myself joining in.There followed a Q&A session next with the Director and Producer of the film, which was engrossing and their answers to the many questions put to them by the audience was very interesting.I am sure this film will receive mixed reviews due to its controversial nature, but I can tell you everyone I have spoken to who has seen the film, thoroughly enjoyed it and I am sure you too will not be disappointed.I have never felt this way about a film before, the closest if I had to make a choice would be Dirty Dancing, but Guys, please don't let that put you off, Bloodline is nothing like Dirty Dancing. Bloodline is one of those films that you will be thinking about long after the final credits and I cannot recommend this film enough.I am certain the issues it explores and the evidence revealed, will be debated for many years to come, so don't be left out, go and see it while you can.
View MoreI was lucky enough to see Bloodline before it hits theaters next month.The documentary follows the director around France who is piecing together clues from the past to figure out if Jesus and Mary Magdalene had a child. He interviews members of the secret Priory of Sion and those who have also been searching for the truth about this long held mystery. As the film goes on, the mystery unfolds.Anyone who is interested in the Priory of Sion, Mary Magdalene, the Catholic church, or Christianity should see this film. It's beautifully shot, suspenseful, and an overall well crafted documentary. You will sit on the edge of your seat during the entire film, begging for more.
