WHERE TO WATCH

  • Can definitely tell this was a ion project for Scorsese. So much love and attention to detail put into this one. Enjoy how it wrestles with religion and what it truly means to have faith. Can see it from both sides. Has some knockout performances form Neeson, Garfield, and Driver.

Silence Review
6/10

Silence is beautifully-crafted and well-acted, but often frustrating in the way that it examines spirituality through historical drama.
