Zackergrr, It was not offensive. I think it was very informative. You are probably one of those cry baby people who like to whinge about everything. The movie wasn't horror movie, and it wasn't meant to be. I'm sick of hearing people complain cuz it didn't scare them. IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO! Get with the programme people!

Decent movie, but surely not a "horror" film. This is more a religious movie than anything. I didn't find it scary, but it was entertaining and well acted. The story is intelligent, but then again, I thought that "Dogma" was as well.

You people are so thirsty for a good horror film you seem to settle for cheap hour and a half long X-File knock off garbage. I saw this film the night it was realesed with high hopes of a great Exorcist like film. I wanted to be jolted I wanted to be frightened and I wanted the film to give me something to think about. Instead I got another high budget attempt at money making. This film is prpackaged cotton candy crap! I think my I.Q. dropped 10 points just from witnessing such an attrocity. I was ashamed. I am all for religion in cinema. I myself am not a religious man at all even though I was raised in a christian house hold. I can see how some people got a message from Stigmata and I can see how it opens some peoples eyes to a "new world" but those people must realize this new world they are seeing is based in a lame fictitious horror movie world that is based in no solid evidence and is made to make the schmuks who believe the tabloids paranoid. Sad stuff,man...

The movie was awesome. It was very original and very scary because it was about religion and that provokes a lot of fear in everyone. Good acting as well.

This was a very, very good movie because it was informative. The sparks between the priest and the Stigmata girl were gross, what was he thinking? I felt bad for the girl because she started to flip out in public and people thought she wanted to kill herself! The ending was good too, but I didn't understand what happened to her until I watched it a second time!

The plot twists and turns to keep your attention. All of the graphics were very fiting and realistic. The movie itself was frighteningly real. The end left you feeling like, "damn, that could really happen."

The plot twist and graphics were awesome. The way they made it was true to the church. The wounds she received and the graphic blood/horror were awesome. The way they left the end open was perfect. Now we can have a Stigmata 2.

It's been a long time since a good horror movie came out. If you are into a good scare Stigmata is a great one to rent. It has good effects and great acting. If I was to compare it to another movie, the movie that would fit best would be The Exorcist.

Stigmata is the best horror movie that came out recently. The lady acted so good in it. It's so realistic and it can happen to anyone anytime. It should be second to the best movie.

This movie freaked me out! I couldn't sleep that night. I really liked the story of how the old Priest's necklace did all of the Stigmata to the girl. It was weird how the girl would write in a language that she didn't even know.

Whenever I talk about "Stigmata" I always compare it to "Devils Advocate" by saying "Devils Advocate" scared the devil out of me, literally, but I still haven't figured out what Stigmata scared out of me. I originally thought that "Stigmata" was a movie about Devil posession, but found out that it was really about the corruption of the Catholic Church. This movie had a particular effect on me because I am Catholic, but I have always felt that their Doctrines are not in the best interest of the people, but rather those in power in the Church. Also, the movie was very scary because I believed that posession could only happen if your faith isn't strong, and "Stigmata" is about what happens when your faith reaches the ultimate level of where you actually begin to experience what Jesus went through in his last moments. After this movie, I feel pretty much screwed either way I go.

The storyline was good, but the script made it lame. It was over dramatized to the point that it became a comedy. It was lame and pathetic the way that the director expected people to be scared.

Two days ago I saw Stigmata & was overwhelmed! In fact I can't say witch one out of Forrest Gump & Stigmata is the best I've ever seen - cause their both perfect! It puts As Good As It Gets as the third best I've seen. Just before I went into the cinema, I read an huge Norwegian news paper given the movie one out of six stars. It was the first I've ever read about the movie. When I came out of the movie, I felt like a new spiritual person. Throughout the whole movie I freezed on my back! I've just had one similar experienced, with Forrest Gump. Then I didn't freeze, I cried. For the first time in my life that I can remember, I freezed so intensely that I actually made me cry! The movie is extremely powerful, both when it comes to pictures/colours/scripts & sounds, & especially the combination! But unlike most movies, especially horror/thrillers [!!] it had a mission! The story made me look at the world with new eyes, like I was a five years old child discovering the realities in life & the laws of the universe. It didn't only critize the Vatican Church, it also had something to tell the atheists among us. I feel more agnostic & less atheistic now than before the movie. Forget the X-Files, forget the stories of people who claim they've met aliens & ufos, forget the 'political correct use of violence' in Fight Club - Stigmata hits much harder! How could this extraordinary movie only get 6.1/10 from the IMDb.com users? Maybe because it's too controversial for them? Maybe because they were afraid of the film's message? Remember what a person said about Stigmata: "Leave religion out of cinema!". Maybe they're afraid that their religious brainwashness will be washed away by the director? Even though I haven't seen The Exorcist, I will claim that it has nothing to do with it & the reason is this: Stigmata is original because it's more than entertainment, it's also thought-provoking! :-D

I saw this movie when it came out in the theatres and liked it wuite a bit. I am always pretty interested in movies that deal with the occult/mysticism/ history of religion. Granted, a lot of this plot was fictional, it does make you wonder what types of religious mysteries exist. It was a little fraphic as far as the blood goes, so the squeamish may be turned off.
