   Is novitiate a good movie?

   • A powerful, if imprecise, look at religious faith. Novitiate is that rare film when it comes to religion - a tough, honest look at faith from writer/director Margaret Betts that is both critical and respectful.

   Is novitiate worth watching?

   • Each are unique threads in their own right, but by playing at multiple narratives, Betts fails to totally satisfy any of them. And at a solid two hours, Novitiate will likely test the patience of even trained art-house viewers. Still, it’s a gorgeous affair, and viewers can count on being bowled over by Betts’ sense of composition.
