Not blasphemous, not bad

Rating: 7/10 (26 May 2003)

I went expecting to be outraged at the "fun and goofs" they were going to have at God's expense, but I was pleasantly surprised. Not only was it not blasphemous, it actually could strengthen one's faith in the higher power. There were several scenes that were very deep in spiritual meaning, even if delivered thru the most annoyingly silly actor in Hollywood. Now granted, Jim Carrey is way over the top in this one sometimes (even by Jim Carrey standards), but move past it, laugh at some toilet humor, and be sure and catch the deeper meaning!
If you're going just to laugh at someone talking out of their butt or hitting themselves in the head with a hammer, then you've chosen the wrong picture. But if you appreciate a little thinking man's humor (yes I said "Jim Carrey" and "thinking man" in the same paragraph), then come off the hip and see this one!
