Well, 60% of critics liked it...

It looks funny. Anybody see it/looking forward to it?

It looks funny to me. I am going to go see it tomorrow night. I'll tell you if it sucks or not!

I want to see it. Hopefully it comes here. Oh and this guy seems to hate the idea of it.

Interesting read, to be sure. From what I've read so far the movie is a satire on Christan fundementalism, obviously made by and for those whose thoughts are more to the left than to the right...it will certainly offend the sensibilities of Christian fundementalists of the mindset that homosexuality is a sin punishable under eternal suffering in hell.

But I'm SO surprised that the film is an indie and not getting wide release--it's playing nowhere near me! =(

I loved it! It was funny, smart and well done. It had a message and didn't beat you with it but the point was well made. Characters developed nicely. Macaulay Culkin really surprised me. I never liked him before this. But I think he's grown up and he was great. Go see it if it's near you! Don't go see it though if you are devout because you will be offended. It pans the right pretty hard.

I love how homosexuals throw the word "Tolerance" around like a catch phrase. Then, they show an equal amount of intolerance and verbal brutality to those people who disagree with them. Of course when the Religious speak their minds its intolerance and hate. When homosexuals and their supporters do it, its bravery and artistic expression. Hypocrites.
