Team
That's What She Said is proud to select in the
Comedy category, the Kevin Smith classic
Dogma.
This is one of my absolute fave Kevin Smith movies - touching as it does on a subject capable of inspiring some of the worst and best in humanity....religion. With an all-star cast, some excellent writing and even a little hockey flavour, this movie is a must-see for the uninitated.
YouTube goodies:
The trailer...
Meet Jesus "Buddy" Christ
Bethany meets the Metatron
Idolators.....Damon & Affleck are awesome here...
And the requisite Jay & Silent Bob appearance
Roger Ebert described it best perhaps in his review of the film:
"Kevin Smith has made a movie that reflects the spirit in which many Catholics regard their church. He has positioned his comedy on the balance line between theological rigidity and secular reality, which is where so many Catholics find themselves. He deals with eternal questions in terms of flawed characters who live now, today, in an imperfect world.
Those whose approach to religion is spiritual will have little trouble with "Dogma," because they will understand the characters as imperfect, sincere, clumsy seekers trying to do the right thing. Those who see religion more as a team, a club, a hobby or a pressure group are going to be upset. This movie takes theological matters out of the hands of "spokesmen" and entrusts them to--well, the unwashed. And goes so far as to suggest that God loves them. And is a Canadian."
