Yeah I agree with the general consensus here, I liked the cinematography at points, acting was fine, the cathedral performance was good, however even with all of those positives it couldn't save an otherwise boring structured story, it's supposed to be a biopic and I didn't learn anything about the guy they made a movie for.

5/10
