Reviews for The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima
John Brahm tries to balance simplicity and spectacle in this WWI Portuguese-set religious tale, but uncharacteristically ends up making a pious and dull movie; even Max Steiner's powerful, Oscar-nominated score can't help much.
Never quite emerges from the shadow of the earlier, superior The Song of Bernadette, but ups the ante with sterner opposition… and a more dramatic climax.
