A Confissão

I love the seasons of "24" so I wanted to see Keifer Sutherland in another role. His character is similar to that of his "Jack Bauer" character but different enough to still be interesting. I like the unfolding "self realizations." Good plot, some surprises I didn't see coming which adds excitement. I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes but with each one were at least a little longer. Keifer Sutherland is perfect for this role and the confession aspect of the series is new and different to me. The church and confessional bring a quiet depth to this series. I love the flashbacks and hope their frequency increases as the chapters unfold.If I had to sum up The Confession in a couple of words I would say it is intriguing with mysterious depth.

This web series is a great show......I love every second of it... I really enjoyed all the conversations between the confessor and the priest. It is really profound and in-depth dialogue, I wish more people would watch this web series. I would want to see it on TV as well but I guess there is not enough time. I can only hope this web series expands into a 30 minute or 1 hour episodes in future so that it can be shown on TV as well. I am positive it can be done if all the flashbacks are expended to form complete stories on their own with more action,drama, and dirty works about their (the confessor and the priest) past, present and future. Once again, it is a great series and I want to see more minutes of it.

I will not give away spoilers. I just watched Chapter 8 and it was gut-wrenching! John Hurt's performance in this chapter just shows why he truly is one of the great actors of the last 40 years. When Hurt (as the Priest) confesses his sins from a past life, you truly feel his pain. Your stomach will twist into knots and you will want to cry with him. If this was a movie instead of a web-series, he would easily win an Academy Award. Sutherland's performance is top notch. The character is a level or two deeper than Jack Bauer, and although he is an assassin, we feel his pain and we want him to win his fight.

This web-series is the best show that is currently on the Planet earth right now, whether it's TV, movies, internet, whatever.....nuff said!

Just finished watching all 9 episodes of The Confession. all I can say is that it is probably better than most of the series that stay on year after year, dragging on on the same content and same dialogue, trying to stretch and prolong the very obvious plot lines; this kept you guessing and plunged you into an ocean of thrills, fears and ultimately acceptance, to how life can sometimes be seen. It truly is one of the greatest series, actually, mini series that I've ever had the good fortune to watch.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT- the entire series is only an hour long anyway, but every second of it is hours worth of emotion and depth, every second passed was a moment missed and a moment i wished to see again....not too much time out of the day in order to watch a masterpiece.

There is something I cannot understand;it is really beyond me;how can a movie so highly rated,a rating it thoroughly deserves , be totally overlooked by the users,as far as comments are concerned ?after watching it,I was expecting at least one hundred of them!Much to my surprise,I'm the first one to write about it.

This very short work (70 min ,but no filling!),bitter and utterly uncompromising ,will perhaps be more appreciated if you were brought up a catholic ,but every viewer looking for "something different" will be rewarded.

The action takes place in a confessional ,where a man who's just killed someone -and is about to repeat this crime this very night- wants a priest to give him absolution.

There are many flashbacks ,and little by little ,we understand the sinner can show compassion ,pity ,and that it is not a black and white world,but surely a gray one.We guess the unexpected final twist halfway through the movie,but the interest does not suffer for it .

The movie deals with religious concepts such as free will ,the relativity of what's good and what's evil and the existence of God himself is called into question;it could also be seen as a metaphoric meeting with the Devil ,but it's up to you to decide,all in all, who the real satanic being is.

There're only two actors (the others are supporting for a very short time)but they are merely prodigious :Kiefer Sutherland portrays an ambiguous character,a killer who sometimes resembles a black Robin Hood (the extraordinary and totally unexpected scene of the computer),and who,from the start,got a raw deal ;Matching him every step of the way is aging John Hurt's tormented priest who believed he could redeem himself and escape from a horrible past .

Even with violence kept to the minimum ,this is a pessimistic terrifying movie,which leaves no hope to the viewer .It might shock true believers ,the words do not cut ,they bite;but they inspire the vital extremism of the confrontation.

70 min of your time;it's not much and you won't forget "the confession"
