A very enjoyable movie and a great conversation starter

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2006)

This is a good, fun movie. It does what it says on the tin and does it well. It has lots of laughs with Jim Carey as his usual funny self, and Steve Correll as the comedic icing on the cake. Morgan Freeman is great as God.
Yes, it is slightly clichéd in parts (see the stereotpyically stupid street gang) but, hey, it doesn't claim to be Shakespeare!
It is also a great discussion starter on matters of faith as it deals with a number of Christian themes: why does God allow suffering, free will, God's providence, our fallen state, being content with the gifts you have been given, to name but a few.
