Don't miss it.

The moral grey area of the title perhaps worked better in the stage play; exposed on screen it's not "doubt" being expressed, it's the sound of Streep's headmistressy voice demanding, "That Oscar - on my desk, NOW."

Doubt looks like some sort of upscale horror film, complete with crows and swirling leaves like The Omen. It's actually a terminally muddled piece of star-studded Oscar-bait.

But one doesn’t need to understand the history of the Catholic Church to enjoy the film, because, if anything, "Doubt" is an acting masterclass featuring one of the strongest acting quartets a film has ever seen.
