Great acting makes a boring plot survive. This movie is more deserving an episode of 20/20, Frontline, Nightline, 60 minutes, where all that happens, and I mean all, is dialogue. 2 people talking, 3 other people talking, a guy crosses the street into a coffee shop. The absence of something takes a couple of views to realize, but there is nothing happening here, except really over-cast characters negotiating something that takes a lot of talk, legal paperwork, and not much else. Take a boring day at your job in an office, and replace everybody there with superstar actors. I guess what has already happened to the victims of the church, is supposed to be enough "action", but you wouldn't want to see that and they don't do a good job of making you feel those crimes after the fact. I am looking at Lev Schreiber behind glasses in a suit, and waiting for him to shoot or atleast hit somebody. Mark Ruffalo making copies, of paper. Batman Keaton calling the shots in pleated Dockers with his hands in his pockets. This movie is the biggest waste of acting talent ever produced.
