Review by: kevin2019

"We're No Angels" has some fabulous photography that really brings the rugged Vancouver locations to life. It is a very entertaining film on every level and it has comedy that works - Ned is very amusing as he desperately attempts to remove his leg irons while listening to someone's sins in a confessional. The introduction of Molly and her deaf daughter Rosie could have been responsible for the whole film lapsing into a maudlin sense, but this is never allowed to happen. Molly's change of heart about the life she is leading and Jim's unexpected decision to join the priesthood are unanticipated developments which have been expertly crafted and perfectly in keeping with the story being told.
