Maher attacks religion and the result is terrific. The mocking
of the faithful might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but if seeing a Jesus
mascot at a Christian amusement park get crucified on a daily basis like a
Disneyland parade and listening to a Born-again talk about Jonah being
swallowed by a fish not a whale is funny to you then this is the film to
see. My only problem with the film is that they didn’t go far
enough. I loved the personal touches like Maher talking with his mother
about his growing up, but I feel like there was so much more out there for him
to investigate. Maybe he’ll make a sequel. At the same
time how many ways can you say the same thing? Mainly religion is a
joke. Grade: B+
My Grading System
A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).
Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.
