A bit disappointed

The plot is straight to the point, unlike many horror films, the whole film revolves around the court trial, but it is a little dull, maybe because I am engaged in legal work, my focus is more attracted by the wonderful court debates. I was also deeply touched by the debate. The scenes described in reverse order are not scary, maybe because of cultural differences. The exorcism scene is very funny compared to the Chinese ghost hunting scenes. The whole film is very helpless. I don’t know why If you want to ask the name of the devil, it's like asking all the time, devil, if I call you, do you dare to answer, I answer, and then what can you do to me. The results of a quite satisfactory exorcism film can already be imagined, so I only gave it to Samsung.

The Exorcism of Emily Rose quotes

  • Ethan Thomas: So, the judge thinks we should offer your client a new plea agreement. Apparently she thinks the community would be better served without this trial.

    Erin Bruner: How do you feel about it, personally?

    Ethan Thomas: My job is to represent the interest of the people, make an effort to be objective.

    Erin Bruner: Hm. I ask because I know you're a churchgoer. Now you're sent to prosecute a man of God.

    Ethan Thomas: Your priest broke the law and a young girl is dead. If he's a man of God, then personally I think he's even more subject to the laws of moral behavior and punishment. If it were up to me he'd get no deal at all.

    Erin Bruner: What about forgiveness and compassion? Isn't that part of your creed or does that just get in the way of your work?

    Ethan Thomas: If you have compassion for your client, counselor, you'll persuade him to accept this: Charges reduced to reckless endangerment, 12 months in a county jail, reducible to 6 plus probation if he can stay out of trouble. Somehow I expect he can manage that, but please understand me... if he refuses I will seek the maximum.

  • Emily Rose: I choose to stay.
