It is an uplifting story beautifully written based on faith, tenacity, hope, love and resilience; twisted with parental love and discipline, fused with emotions and the REALITY of life. For someone who has lived on faith my entire life, I bet you would believe me when I say miracles exist—and this is a real presentation in the movie. #GodIsGod#

I believe this story is my story, told in another way. As a child, I performed many miracles—healing the sick, predicting events and many more that came to pass. Yet people conflict my SPIRITUALITY with sexuality now that I am older. Those who have doubted and tried to harm me have witnessed God's wrath one way or the other. BENEDICTA is a fantastic story that is well-told, except for the blasphemy part. It is a movie that sent me far into the realm as I spoke in tongues and prayed for minutes without knowing what was happening around me. Remember, God uses whoever he pleases for His work—because He sees the heart beyond humans. Matthew 18:3#GodIsGod#

I wondered what others watched, far differently from me, to give such a ''poor'' review. I was captivated by the unexpected twists and turns of the story, but most importantly, by how two strong, determined, spirited, fiercely -amazing women (lovers/partners ) fought their way through to the end. For the first time, it feels great having two LGBTQ female characters portrayed in a regular movie as women with all the ''perfect'' business-minded characters, and NOT the usually weak, pathetic souls with no ambition. Again, this movie is underrated! But for me, it is a 9/10. Indeed, one can only care that much to care for the ''wrong" person.....hahaha.

For all who watched this movie and hipped praises on Tyler Perry, y’all need to go and look for your long-lost objectivity lenses! Because I don’t know which part of the narrative is captivating. Apart from the high fashion sense portrayed by Kelly Rowland, the lawyer –which also seemed to me as ''overdressing'', ethics and professionalism was/were woefully misrepresented! Additionally, morality and women's dignity were trashed--very misogynistic! The plot twist at the end was okay, but those who deciphered the codes to the story from the beginning weren’t surprised. The only part that increased my dopamine was when she had to rip the paintings from one layer to another to realize the ‘truth’ ( she wasn’t that special, after all). While the sex scene may intrigue you for whatever silly reason, It was appalling enough for me to skip as fast as I could. In conclusion, as fictional as the story is, I was angered by the star-studded cast who wasted precious time on the script. I rate it 4/10 simply; it's disappointingly awful!

Speechless! what a movie, so intense and well-acted. A perfect storyline and ooh.......

If there is any other reason people are going crazy over this movie, I would love to know. The storyline is over the top exaggerated. As a matter of fact, it is a complete waste of time!
