Synopsis

There’s something funny about those two new priests. In fact, there’s something downright hilarious. Because Robert De Niro and Sean Penn aren’t clergymen at all. They’re escaped cons whose only prayer is to pass themselves off as men of the cloth...and pass right by a police blockade at the border and into the safety of Canada. Demi Moore joins De Niro and Penn in this clever romp scripted by David Mamet. The cons are loose and the comedy is on. It’ll be a sin to miss it!
