    Not even close to the story

    Really bad acting, timing, sequence, makeup and everything. No wonder it didnt make the charts. It didnt even make some noise. Not a good movie to watch either. The narrative and how everything was written is half of the story and didnt even tell the entire truth and have omitted half of it. Clarita wasnt exorcised entirely by a priest but by a christian pastor from Bethel Temple in the 50s. Whoever made this film mustve been catholic. What's the goal of this movie? What's the lesson of this movie? Will it make people go back to church? Did it show the glory of God? Did the director and the actors wanted to tell a good story? Go watch a different movie instead than this. It is not even worth your time.

    Filipino Exorcist

    Because honesty is the best policy I have to say I didn't know fully what I was walking into. I read a synopsis but nowhere did it say that the movie was in Tagalog. I don't truly mind. I'm used to subtitles. I've watched more than my fair share of subtitled kung-fu movies and Japanese anime.

    Clarita was really a Filipino version of "The Exorcist" with a few wrinkles. It had everything you come to expect in a possession movie: possessed girl, freaky contortions of the body, levitation, changed voice, rapidly deteriorating body, a priest or two, and an exorcism. Had it not all been done many times over before in American movies I may have appreciated this movie more.

    Review

    The movie was great; it has the same intensity as Pope's Exorcist. The flow of the plot and flashbacks of each character were very smooth and detailed. I don't think that this movie is boring because it also has many lessons and a sense of realism. I love the part when the father said, "You cannot believe God without believing the existence of evil. I don't like how this movie was being reviewed,which was so misleading. If you love exorcism horror movies, this is very great to watch and would recommend it as one of the best horror movies in the Philippines. The actors did a great job.

    FAKE CATHOLIC VERSION

    The movie inaccurately portrays Clarita's story. In reality, a pastor from the USA's Bethel Temple was the exorcist not 2 Priest, and only two demons possessed her, contrary to the 5-7 depicted in the film. For a more accurate account, watch KMJS Clarita. It's more truthful and reliable than this misleading catholic version.

    The film strays far from actual events, distorting the facts for dramatic effect. KMJS Clarita presents a much more credible and authentic narrative, grounded in real documentation. The Hollywoodized rendition not only sensationalizes but also disrespects the true story. I recommend KMJS Clarita.

    Halfway there

    It has some jumpscares but I find the story a little boring. The movie has good sound mixing and colors but that's it. It could've been better in some aspects. Great acting by the cast though.
