This is a good movie. It does not slam the Catholic Church. The acting is superb. Most movies rely on action or jokes to carry it along and if there happens to be good acting it's icing on the cake. The movie Doubt is great acting. Set in 1964, a year I remember well, at age 2 ... just the setting was worth seeing.
A very good friend of mine (I'll call him Tom) went to see the movie first. I went to see it so that he would have somebody to talk to about the movie. The movie does not definitively tell you one way or the other what actually happened. Tom and I both came to different conclusions. We even had different ideas of what the doubt was.
Go see the movie. Watch for all the symbols - the lights, the windows, the wind. It's terrific.
