And for the sake of excluding all those who take pride in being civilized, and genteel, and tame. This movie is the instinct of warfare, except that the enemy begins to be defined as all that which binds men to the shackles of their own civilization. Its makers say that it is a dark comedy, and those who take it seriously don't get the joke. But its viewers will shuffle away feeling that its makers have a darker side than most religious people would care to consider. Self-help groups of all types are held up to parody and ridicule in this movie.
Religion is considered just another form.
If viewed by believers, this movie will undoubtedly disturb many. Mr. Salfen is pastor of Westminster Presbyterian Church in Dallas, Texas. Feel free to comment on this article or sign our guest book.
