kyeseven This movie has the perfect serious/ridiculous balance. It conveys serious social messages, such as the hypocrisies and contradictions inherent in religion. It's very funny and edgy. It's a brilliant, poignant satire with some over the top villains of the bigoted, fanatical Christian, zealot type, and, perhaps most importantly, it contains several extremely likable, three-dimensional protagonists. It's rare to find a satire that contains three-dimensional characters that possess depth and likeability. It's one of my favourite films ever. I have watched it many times and I don't get bored of it.
Tony I was christened, baptised and confirmed as a Catholic, taught righteousness by nuns at school. Then at a certain age I started asking why, or more importantly withdrew my blind faith. If God wants to punish me then fine, you're not my kind of God anyway. That's basically the central theme in this film, how all mainstream religions are nothing like the ideals set out by the leading texts they're founded on. This film is irreverent only in the satirical way, you can't preach morals if you make and break them at will.There is an interesting section of the film when the virgin birth is sort of questioned. Earlier examples would be how many Greek heroes were the sons of Zeus as his mortal father had been away fighting the past year. It's just a fun film, so if you are religious you can watch and laugh at so many apostates condemning themselves to eternal hell.Is it funny or strange how religions always have this sadistic element to them.
mehendricks Normally, I would hardly ever give ANY film 10 stars. I would reserve that sort of distinction for a film like the 'Godfather' or some other truly epic flick.However, I rated this film a 10 because I am sure that many Christians rated it poorly, thereby skewing the ratings. I think this film does a good job of showing the idiocy of Bible-Thumpers.I do NOT, however, appreciate the fact that the film conflates gun rights with Jeezo-Jerks. I am not a Christian, I am gay and I support a woman's right to decide on abortion. One might say that I am a liberal, but I do not support the campaign against the Second Amendment.
Nick Damian Saved is the compelling story of a Catholic school girl who seeks the admiration and desire that her heart beckons and the quest for inner peace.She comes to terms with being an emerging woman and the adventures that follow are certainly to entertain.Her hi-jinks, if you will; follow her escapades into a world which revolves around her being one with God. She captivates her cast with all the charisma and skill that a young thespian with such skills and glowing talent offers the screen.A diverse introspective detailed life of a character torn, inspired with moments of passion and an elegant portrayal of a girl in her own - becoming the person she has evolved into. Blossoming with a glowing understanding as she reaches new realms and portrays a fresh, yearning, eager woman who boasts the ability to reign in her new empire as a loyal, dedicated and honorable student would and should do.Outspoken, unmatched and a truthful follow-up to her define her character and personality in a true to life account of a women on the verge of growth, mentally, physically and spiritually! A masterpiece for all ages and a definite film which sparkles the emotion and psychological stigmata and sheds light to the very essence of being! Simply remarkable!
