3 / 5
Translated from swedish: The only sense of genuine religious experience can be found on the soundtrack, where the far too prematurely departed Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson seems to capture with his atmospheric music that blessed feeling Garth Davis desperately searched for in the script and among his actors – but never found.

Translated from swedish: Not even half as exciting as it could have been.

2 / 5
Translated from swedish: "Mary Magdalene" is as troublesome as an art house film that misses the mark. At the same time, there are some good scenes here and at least an ambition to do something different, which still makes the film worth watching.

Translated from swedish: I think "Mary Magdalene" is a masterpiece of a film and a must-see for anyone interested in religion and women's role in society throughout history. But it's open to being viewed and interpreted in different ways. It doesn't establish whether Jesus rose from the dead or not, whether he performed miracles or not - each viewer gets to decide how to interpret the scenes.
