	Bless the Child: Cinephiles Movie Review
		Bless the Child, directed by Chuck Russell (The Mask) and produced by Mace Neufeld (The Omen) exploits religious mythology and iconography in its attempt to create a story that revisits the millenary struggle between the supernatural forces of good and evil.
		Bless the Child depicts the complications that transform the simple life of Maggie O'Connor (Kim Basinger), a hardworking nurse at a New York hospital.
		Bless the Child mostly creates suspense by stressing Cody's vulnerability and by placing this character at the core of a war between good and evil, that is, between God and Lucifer.

	Bless the Child (Soundtrack) by Christopher Young
		Bless the Child has its fair share of them; however, mingling amidst the clichéd elements that are bound to every film of this nature, Christopher Young provides a number of captivating moments- mixed in with and sometimes comprised by heavenly vocals, disconcerting chants, glorious and sometimes chilling string swells.
		However complex and technically challenging, Bless the Child is not likely to be the sort one listens to repeatedly.
		All artwork from Bless the Child is exclusive property of GNP Crescendo Records (c) 2000.

	Bless the Child
		I definitely would not recommend Bless the Child to more conservative collectors, but fans of the composer and horror scores in general will have an exciting, almost unforgettable romp into the darkest abyss of human consciousness.
		In scoring Bless the Child, Christopher Young has managed to elevate a truly uninspired and tepid film into a terrifying, yet sublime album that manages to stand on its own as a large concert work.
		Bless the Child is Copyright 2000 by GNP Crescendo.

	Bless the Child
		Stylistically, Bless the Child is a combination of three scores, mixing the massive dissonance and impressive choral work of Hellraiser with the heartbreaking, lavish string themes of Murder in the First and uneasily attractive pianos of Copycat.
		Bless the Child's action music is superficially reminiscent of that in Urban Legend, notably through its use of rampant percussion, and the way in which each section of the orchestra is effectively doing its own thing the whole time, with little regard for anyone else.
		Even though Bless the Child does bear many hallmarks of Young's previous scores, it is nevertheless one of the best horror scores to emerge during this year, and can easily sit alongside his other classic genre efforts as a highlight in his filmography.

	RTE.ie Entertainment - Bless The Child
		Bless The Child is a supernatural thriller from the producer of The Omen.
		Although Bless the Child has its moments - and a few are genuinely heart stopping - it fails to consistently maintain either suspense or thrills.
		Its heavy reliance on clichés tends to make you laugh when you should be trembling and policemen should start realising that there is no point in telling anxious fathers/siblings/aunts to wait in the car as they prepare to attack the sinister house where their loved one is held.

	Bless the Child - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bless the Child is a 2000 thriller/horror film directed by Chuck Russell.
		Meanwhile, Cody has begun to manifest strange powers, such as telekinesis, and at one point she also brings a bird back to life, much to the her class-mates' fascination.
		The abduction of young Cody was more than just a mother wanting her child back, it is revealed; her husband Eric is the head of "New Dawn," a cult which is trying to find a special child born on December 16th, 1993.

	DVD Review: Bless The Child
		With "Bless The Child", he is simply working with a less-than-adequate screenplay that doesn't develop the characters or the story that well.
		Strangely, "Bless The Child" remains one of those films where, as bad as it sometimes gets, I found it at least still somewhat watchable in the way that, although I wasn't entertained, I was still curious about what was going to happen next, unlike last year's similar "End Of Days", which was consistently irritating.
		SOUND: "Bless The Child" presented a pretty unremarkable Dolby Digital 5.1 presentation; for the most part, the sound remained from the front with little surround use.

	Bless the Child (2000): Kim Basinger, Jimmy Smits, Holliston Coleman, Christina Ricci - PopMatters Film Review
		Add to this the fact that Cody's primary guardian is her well-intentioned but startlingly inept Aunt Maggie (Kim Basinger), and it's clear that the child is in for a rough time in Bless the Child.
		The "barren" Maggie will do anything to protect the child she couldn't have herself (shades of Ripley), and she undergoes something resembling a recovery of her religious faith while maintaining her penchant for science (shades of Scully, on occasion).
		I'm guessing that this has less to do with her gender than with the film's basic philosophical quandary: in matters of faith, you must surrender your will, make a leap, die and be resurrected, all that.

		im Basinger is hit upside the head by demons, ogled by grimacing gargoyles and tetched by angels in the vexing supernatural thriller "Bless the Child." In hopes of likewise spooking the crowd, the filmmakers invoke all manner of spectral effects, but to no avail.
		Nevertheless, she places Cody in a Catholic school for the mentally challenged, where the Heaven-sent babe begins to demonstrate magic powers like spinning plates and healing doves.
		He is, after all, a former child actor, and we all know that growing up Brady is a living hell.

		With the illustrations are the words to the song "God Bless the Child." The song becomes a beautiful story brought to life with these detailed, expressive images.
		Taking the words to Billie Holiday's and Arthur Herzog Jr.'s bluesy "God Bless the Child" as his text and inspiration, Pinkney depicts a family's move in the 1930s from the rural South to the industrialized North in what was known as the Great Migration.
		As Pinkney notes in an afterword, "At the time "God Bless the Child" was written, education was largely a privilege of the wealthy.

		At the same time, a series of child murders are sweeping the city--murders conducted by a mysterious cult with supernatural matters on their mind.
		The problem is this; "Bless the Child" looks as if it wants to satisfiy the audience at the sacrifice of coherence and probability.
		This is not a horror movie; it's more like a horror action movie, and you should make a new category for "Bless the Child." I enjoyed watching it, but I really doubt the actors are happy to see their efforts turned into a concocted chain of instant excitement.

		I'm not a huge fan of Religious Horror, the subcategory this film falls into, and Bless the Child came out in a period when we saw a lot of its type released (including Stigmata, End of Days, and Lost Souls), so I didn't feel entirely obligated to go see it.
		When her sister takes off, Maggie decides to raise the child herself, even though it is discovered that she is autistic, and even worse, has red hair.
		It was sort of the opposite of The Omen, with a child so pure and sweet that she can change/save the world.
