Doubt, 2008

I am trying to decide what I liked about this movie. Not much. Part of it is that I do not care for Streep or Hoffman. In a way, that made everyone else stand out. =) Sister James (Amy Adams) was a good character, charming for all her naivete, but a little too childish in some ways.

I realize the premise of the movie is Doubt. And I think it makes a good point that even in varoius pursuits of religious sincercity and faith, everyone has doubts. That being said, what was the point? What was the audience to walk away with? A movie capitalizing on the topic of doubt should not leave so much up in the air, I think.
