this is an unusual movie, and some parts may be scary for Young children, but it is a good, clean movie. my family liked it.

Cadi is a young girl of Welch descent, living with her people in the "wicked mountains" where people believe in various pagan myths, such as "The Sin Eater". Cadi thinks she caused the death of her sister and needs the sin eater to eat her sins. She then meets a travelling preacher who tells her about Jesus.
For such a bad story, the movie certainly goes on for far too long, at almost two boring hours and the acting doesn't make it any better. Liana Liberato (Cadi) is one of the few actors in the movie who do a decent job. The rest range from awkward to awful. Not even the great Louise Fletcher gives a good performance. The accent all sound fake; Henry Thomas is especially painful to hear.
There is one scene towards the end that makes me give the movie a weak 2 star rating instead of one. Recommended only for fans of sentimental evangelical movies. Others should stay away.

There is plenty of reviews to tell you about the movie. Just additional accolades here. We bought it knowing it was based upon a book by Francine Rivers. My wife and I have never been disappointed with any of her books--thus we purchased the DVD. We also own the book, The last Sin Eater by Rivers. Both are 5 stars. Books and movies are never exactly the same, books provide more story but take longer to read than viewing a movie. Book lovers, alas, always complain about what was left out. This movie stands on it's own.
Director, writer, and producer Michael Landon, Jr. has done an outstanding job of creating a thrilling story without shying away from the Biblical truth it holds. Jesus Christ was the Last Sin Eater, and the poor chap chosen by the mountain neighborhood to sacrifice his own soul on their behalf was false and unnecessary. Some of the negative reviews on this movie may have come from viewers convicted by the underlying truth. As a Christian, I did not find the religious emphasis strong or out of place.
Most movies I can watch and set aside for a few years before reviewing the same story. Not this one. It is special. I was ready to watch again immediately. My only complaint is that the extra features ran out before I was tired of watching all that was included in The Last Sin Eater DVD.
This is a breathe of fresh air to contemporary cinema as much as the unveiling of truth and the false need of the sin eater was to the story's characters. A fine book/movie for every sinner, and the story explains everyone is a sinner. It takes the younger generation and a murdered man of God in this Welsh community to expose the truth. Cadi, a courageous young girl in the story leads the way.
Excuse me now, while I do an Amazon search for more from Michael Landon Jr. and Francine Rivers.

This is an awesome movie... It subtly reveals the reason that Jesus is needed, the reason He gave His life for everyone...

This movie was much better than I expected it to be! The acting was very good - I don't know where they found the children in this movie, but they were VERY good, very believable. Many Christian films have very poor acting or bad scripting, but occassionally you get lucky and find a real gem - this film is definitely a gem. Our Youth Group loved it so much, that they told their parents' they needed to see it too. We have actually scheduled a movie night on March 15, 2008 and invited people from the community to join us in viewing it. If you live close to Douglassville, Pa. come join us at 7PM at St. Gabriel's!! We are New Horizons Church, using St. Gabe's Multipurpose room at the back of the church.
