Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Lack of taste, no humor, just a bunch of silly controversial attacks that make the essence of this "cheap" movie. It is sad to realize how this portraits our society driven by ideologies, lack of taste, cheap attacks on traditional values masked as comedy or irony.There is a relatively similar in context Portuguese movie, that I liked quite much, it was constructive criticism which I agreed with and it was interesting to watch from the beginning to the end. "The little hours" is a mere product of untalented minds that only worried to make controversy, with no fundament, no story line, no humor. Complete trash.

Wow. Where to begin...This is one of the most self-indulgently awful films ever made. The plot(?) and dialogue are laughably bad. Swearing, violent and promiscuous nuns? A drunk, incompetent priest and mother superior? Never saw that coming...The actors clearly have been basking in the smell of their own farts for too long to release a turd of this caliber.

This movie was supposed to be based on an Italian book ( I don't remember the name). Since I haven't read the original story, I am not sure whether it had been adapted exactly or it's just a loose adaptation. But the movie was filmed excellently. There are definitely funny moments in the movie. I don't find any fault with the acting. Everyone acted well. Some sexual situations add spice to the movie, making it really enjoyable. At one stage, I predicted a tragic end, which turned out to be a happy ending. I'm very much satisfied with the movie. The movie was made in exquisite locations, which are real treat to the eyes. This movie is not for serious fellows who find fault with anything, but it's for light minded people like me. I love this movie.

It's 1347 Garfagnana in central Italy. Father Tommasso (John C. Reilly) runs a convent. Sister Marea (Molly Shannon) is the senior nun. Sister Fernanda (Aubrey Plaza) is volatile. Sister Ginevra (Kate Micucci) is a follower with secrets. Sister Alessandra (Alison Brie) wants to leave for married life despite her father. In his drunken state, Tommasso loses the nuns' embroidery on his way to the market. Massetto (Dave Franco) assists him and in return, he takes in Massetto who is on the run from his vengeful master. Massetto pretends to be deaf mute. Fernanda's childhood friend Marta (Jemima Kirke) arrives and chaos ensues.This is a strange little movie. It's a spoof of sorts but it's also a little serious. Too often, the movie goes into silly which is not silly enough. This probably works better as a dark comedy. When Fred Armisen arrives, the movie falls completely into SNL skit territories. That role needs a serious character actor. This movie struggles between an SNL spoof and a serious dark comedy. It fails to pick a side and clunks along both tracks.
