《耶稣会士》最特别的地方在于，它把西部片的荒蛮和宗教题材的内心挣扎拧在一起，却没有落入“神父拯救灵魂”的俗套。剧情没有大开大合的翻转，而是靠人物间慢慢发酵的猜疑和隐忍推动，每一次暴力爆发都格外扎心。适合对历史写实题材、注重氛围而非剧情反转的影迷，以及对表演细节敏感的观众。 演员嘛，蒂姆·罗斯那张脸往那一杵，不用说话就能把狠劲和脆弱同时演出来。 演员真绝——蒂姆·罗斯演的反派，皮笑肉不笑，一个挑眉就能让你后背发凉；朗·普尔曼满脸褶子，往那一站就是故事；布莱恩·考克斯戏份不多但每场都稳稳的，台词少却字字带劲。他遇见了沉默寡言的警长、心怀鬼胎的商人、以及一个总在暗处盯着他的神秘女人。
The Jesuit is the alias of a man who was wrongly accused and became imprisoned. When The Jesuit discovers that his wife has been murdered and his son kidnapped and taken to Mexico, he elaborates a complex and dangerous plan to rescue his son and avenge the death of his deceased wife.
