God Incorporated

Great concept and beautiful filming but it felt unbalanced and preachy. It really feels like the writer has a strong opinion on this issue and used this film as a way to get that opinion out into the world without wanting to explore any opposite point of view. As a result the characters felt thinly drawn and not real. A missed opportunity to add to the conversation about our relationship with religion which is a shame.

Just saw this through a sneak peek type site where we watch and rate. They called it by a different title but i found it here by the actors and no doubt it's the same movie. I didn't expect to like it but figured it would pass the time on a snowy night. I actually ended up really liking it.

I thought the idea was pretty original, there were some tropes like the morman kid getting drunk and learning to curse but tropes are tropes because they work so wasn't a bad thing. Seemed a bit lower budget then a blockbuster so thinking it might be a hulu or netflix type of movie. It's well done though, I watched straight through which is unusual for me. Kept me interested start to finish.

I didn't know any of the actors but they were all pretty good, believable. There was also a bit in the credits that I enjoyed.

Another example of the DIE religion at work. The film has an intriguing premise; too bad the director went with a cast straight out of a Benetton ad.

We really liked this movie, Tom Schanley did a great job! We didn't see "our friend Tom" up on the screen, we saw a college professor... great acting! The other actors did well too. It was funny, thought provoking and balanced. It ended with a nice premise of listening to others, particularly the ones we love, with respect in disagreement but with an eye on openness. People will like it. It isn't God bashing at all. If anything, it questioned and mocked humans and systems that limited questioning and thought. We should be asking questions even if the perfectly good answer is, "because it's my faith." ~ Tom Tabor
