A riveting drama about the radicalization of a moderate Catholic priest as he is exposed to the violence and suffering in El Salvador. Full Review

As the story arc unfolds, Romero, in a state of inertia, is drawn into a gradual conversion experience, not just in a general sense, but in the specific trajectory of a "conversion to justice." Full Review

Rating: A- -- Where Romero excels as a film is in its depiction of its subject’s gradual transformation. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/4 -- The film's weakness is a certain implacable predictability: We can feel at every moment what must happen next, and the over-all trajectory of the film seems ordained even in the first few shots. As a result, the film doesn't stir many passions. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Romero is a compelling and deeply moving look at the life of Archbishop Oscar Romero of El Salvador, who made the ultimate sacrifice in a passionate stand against social injustice and oppression in his country.
