Hmm...
As I write this review there are only five other written reviews on Holy Father - all of them rewarding it with ten stars. Most of the reviewers have only ever written one review (and none of them have reviewed more than three). As long as IMDB steers reasonably clear from disinformation and represents "honest opinions" it is a useful tool in guiding us through the overwhelming amount of choices we have at our disposal.
The story of parents emotionally under delivering to their children may be a universal topic - it is, however one Dascalescu doesn't deliver particularly well. The narrative feels more driven by personal disappointment than trying to convey a message with documentary qualities. In so doing the ability to identify and empathise is greatly diminished.
Under all accounts it is hard to take in that anybody, genuinely, feels that 10/10 represents a reasonable assessment of Holy Father.
