“Confession” (** out of four) was a tiresome thriller about a wounded man (Stephen Moyer) who shows up at a church and takes a priest hostage (Colm Meaney) and wants to confess the truth about his life before it is too late but what seems like a random encounter is not as it turns out the two have interlocking pasts that are uncovered throughout the night. Two strong performances from the two leads give this as much emotional fire as possible but story becomes undeniably tedious and talky after a while and fizzles out. This may have worked better as a two-character play.
