In its hectic, scattershot way, Padre Pio feels very much of the desperate present day.
Offering visceral immediacy over meticulous construction, Padre Pio bristles with arresting images.
The sins and injustices of the outside world find terrible expression in St Pio of Pietrelcina’s body and imperfect expression in Ferrara’s 22nd feature.
Padre Pio is a therapy session for star Shia LaBeouf, intercut with a story of labor strife in a traumatized Italian village. If that sounds weird, it is, but never in a way that's consistently interesting.
Padre Pio’s two halves stubbornly, constantly butt heads with each other, stories in catastrophic disharmony.
LaBeouf essays a rather, let’s say, contemporary Pio. And completely sinks the picture.
In cinematic confession, no number of Hail Marys could make amends for this.
