Sober Film Critic James Brown75 - There haven't been too many films that I would consider to be genuinely macabre this year, but Irish drama Calvary fits the bill. It’s a dark, dark whodunit that explores the inner savage within us all.

Bryan Lienesch72 - Every day that goes by is another day Brendan Gleeson could've done something about his impending fate, but instead decides to wander off and learn just what a town of assessment he lives in.
