    This film is based on "El crimen del padre Amaro" (2002)

    If you have seen the Latin American film "The Crime of Father Amaro" you will surely going to get the similarities. The original Argentinian film is much better than this one. Shiny Ahuja is a good actor but the film was not successful. I feel you should watch the Carlos Carrera film "The Crime of Father Amaro"(2002). It is more interesting and has a more complex structure. In both the films there is a young and handsome priest. Who falls in love with a sensual girl in the parish. The girl got pregnant. The priest got confused. He wanted to get rid of it by abortion. In that process the girl got died by excessive bleeding. After watching these two films, I can only say that in this world there is no fixed set of morality. Life is painful.

    Plagiarised

    Who's watching Mexican cinema now? First Yuva paid "homage " to Amores Perros now it looks like El Crimen de Padre Amaro (with Bernal) has been "reimagined" as Sins. Not that Mexican cinema is the only source for even critically acclaimed films - Bhansali's Black and Khamoshi were both influenced by foreign films. And there are countless other movies that do not register but may well be copied. India may make the highest number of movies every year but its also film-making at its laziest and shoddiest. But Shiny Ahuja is definitely an actor to watch for. He was wonderful in Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi and one hopes he doesn't get sucked into the Bollywood assembly line.

    A different cinema.... Controversial and Bold.....

    "Sins" presents the darker side of a catholic priest and is bold enough to expose a truth. Perhaps for the reason, the film also got banned. The film shows the evilness of a priest who becomes romantically involved with a lady, gets her pregnant, uses her for his sexual lust, and even commits a murder. Vinod Pande, who in '80s has given off stream movies in the '80s like "Ek Baar Phir" and "Yeh Nazdeekiyan" which both had the extra marital affairs in the centre, narrates the story with the same clarity and tautness. The dialogues are done in a simple English and feels like reading a story, without songs or dance number. Ignoring the controversy or the plagiarism the film got criticized for, the film appears a good effort in terms of its story telling which is clear, colloquial, and scorches the screen with an ugly truth, for which the film can be recommended for the mature viewers, due to its explicit content. There are also flaws in the film, like its slow pace and Shiny Ahuja's performance.

    Nothing Holy about it

    No pun intended - we know that just because someone is dressed and works for something "bigger" than themselves doesn't mean they are ... better than anyone else. Sometimes they are even worse - what will it be in this case? Well the title already does suggest that He probably will not really approve of at least some of the things happening here.

    I read that this seems inspired by a Mexican movie - and the director has borrowed themes (or rather has paid tribute) to other movies as well. Let's call it a remake if that is the case ... nothing that should be surprising ... if the original is similar, this will be one of the few cases I don't care to watch it.

    The nudity in this is mostly obscured - I think you can see a bit of skin though ... not sure if that is help or harmful - no pun intended here either. What is bad, is the acting, the writing and most of the things in between ... really not recommended to watch!

    A pity

    In my experience, Sins is not half as bad as some describe it. Frankly, I don't care whether a movie is a "remake" or "based on the storyline" of another movie at all. Strangely, when Hollywood makes a remake of a European or Asiatic movie, we all should treat that as a great honor, but when the same thing happens in India, we start yelling about plagiarism or ripoffs. I don't buy that.

    The problem with this movie is not that it is a remake, not that the story is bad. No, the problem is the language. Why on Earth was it made in English? To be honest, all those English dialogs spoken on the South Indian countryside have a really bad effect on the credibility of the whole story. And the worst is: it's quite obvious that Shiny Ahuja, the main protagonist of the movie, doesn't know the language well enough to perform in a relaxed manner. I generally like Shiny as an actor, but in this movie his acting is so horribly wooden and clumsy, that I can't help getting the impression that he had to waste too much energy on trying to remember his English text. All in all, it's sad to see how an otherwise great actor becomes the one who actually kills a potentially good movie.
