    Wow do I feel for these characters and the real women that they portrayed. The things people do are horrible. It's a powerful film.

    A sad,historically based account of mistreatment of humanity. The story is a compilation of the way some young women were treated by those who professed morality,mercy and grace. The truth of the hypocrisy is disturbing. Similar to Ireland's Industrial schools around the same era

    A powerful and disturbing tale based on true events. Hard to watch, but deserves some justice.

    I found this flic very disturbing but I have heard it is a close line to how life was in these Magdalene houses. It's a sad revelation and Ireland should feel the shame of it.
    Powerful stuff!

    Very memorable film with fantastic acting performances, showing a glimpse of the horrors that take place when organized religion gets things wrong. The movie will remind you of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" but with a nearly all-female cast. There are a few bits that are a bit too manipulative, but overall the story and pacing deliver an earnest punch to the gut.
