Thoughts on No Man of God
No Man of God is another movie that will dive into the mindset of Ted Bundy. Where we get to see how he was making it through his time in death row. While the FBI look to learn from his dangerous mindset. The conversations between Bill and Ted are fascinating as we get placed into the world where the two could almost be friends. Before the shattering truth about the mindset comes out from Ted. Leaving Bill racing against time to help the final few families learn about the fate of their daughters.
Elijah Wood and Luke Kirby are fantastic in the leading roles. Showing the calm in moments and the uncomfortable rage when the truth is revealed. When it comes to seeing yet another film about Ted Bundy. It will give a more interesting vision, instead of showing his diabolical acts. Showing everyone just how calm his presence was despite what he had done.
