Critic Reviews of "The Secret Scriptures"
TheWrapSeptember 13, 2016Disjointed and disinterested in entertaining any and all prospective viewers, the overlong slab of melodrama is one of the most vanilla experiences at the movies in quite some time.
VarietySeptember 11, 2016It doesn't take too long for Jim Sheridan's period romance "The Secret Scripture" to contort itself into a befuddlingly bungled mess. But at the outset, it seems to have everything going for it.
The Arts DeskMay 19, 2017Sheridan's adaptation of Sebastian Barry's Man Booker-shortlisted novel begins portentously and spirals downwards from there.
Little White LiesMay 19, 2017Its lack of nuance and persistent plotting issues frequently undermine much of the potential emotional heft.
HeyUGuysMay 19, 2017The overall power of the story is female suppression across the ages that really hits home - subtly interwoven, but accompanied by that unsavoury feel of demonising the independent screen female again.
Radio TimesMay 18, 2017Mara ensures that we feel for Rose, and James is surprisingly effective as the man who ruins Rose's life, but The Secret Scripture isn't as moving or intriguing as it should be.
Daily Express (UK)May 18, 2017The result is still a handsome romantic epic but it lacks the emotional punch of the book.
Times (UK)May 18, 2017Sebastian Barry's Costa prizewinning novel is gutted and reconstituted to the point of absurdity in this cockeyed adaptation.
Independent (UK)May 17, 2017It's the construction, not the performances, which undermines The Secret Scripture.
Total FilmMay 15, 2017Jim Sheridan's first Irish movie since The Boxer has trouble unpicking its mysteries, opting for a romantic soap that sees Rooney Mara's heroine face ostracism after falling for Jack Reynor's RAF pilot in '40s Sligo.
