Release Date: 16th August 2013. During the holidays so lots of people have time to go and see it. Audience is restricted by the R rating. a film with a r rating has n audience as they are usually more mature and explore more mature topics.
Reviews: Empire-An initially captivating but finally trying attempt at resuscitating the glory-glory days of the ’70s by a talented director who needs to find his own voice.
Common Sense Media-Parents need to know that Ain't Them Bodies Saints is a stylized, atmospheric indie drama that's part Western, part relationship drama. Chronicling the intense romance between an outlaw and his bride, the movie has been compared to both Bonnie and Clyde and Badlands, and you can expect a fair amount of gun violence and on-screen death.
Mixed reviews towards this film, which is probably why there is no profit from this film, as some people look at reviews to decide if they want to see the film or not. Most reviews are negative.
