What I liked

A solid script. Interesting characters. Solid acting across the board.

What I didn't like

Pace seemed a bit slow. Had trouble hearing actors and end of sentences.

My overall impression

Nicaea holds nothing back as a religion-infused political thriller. You’d think a bunch of people debating religion could get monotonous, but new thoughts and ideas constantly spring up that make you question even your own beliefs. There was always a danger in the air, which is exactly how it must have felt at that time. Every actor inhabits their role naturally, and everyone truly believes what they’re saying. It’s what makes the arguments so compelling. It’s especially relevant these days, check it out.
