Due to Conspiracy's TV-movie simplicity, it's unclear whether this is an actual issue, or just something spicy to be cooked up in the potboiler.

Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
The story meanders, but the subject is timely and important.
New York Daily News by Jack Mathews
Deery's points are well-taken, but they would have been a lot better made if he hadn't taken so many easy shots at the church by demonizing its local authorities.
Entertainment Weekly by Lisa Schwarzbaum
Want Jesuitical fineness of argument? Look elsewhere. This one merely answers the prayers of those looking for an argument.
The Hollywood Reporter by Michael Rechtshaffen
A challenging, thought-provoking debut that compassionately questions the relevance of celibacy in the Catholic Church.
A well-intentioned but ultimately incompetent Irish dud.
Touches on issues raised in "Bad Education," but without Pedro Almodovar's flamboyant elegance.
