Dogma - 016

Divine Cinema

Dogma is a welcome change of pace for the films usually reviewed on Divine Cinema. Jeff, Dylan and Adam all agree that this movie was fun to watch. It is a good hearted film wrapped in a health dose of adolescent humor and Biblical mythology. In addition, it has an amazing cast of actors; Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, the always amazing Alan Rickman (RIP), Chris Rock and Salma Hayek. Of course the real question is where does this movie stack up on the pieces of silver scale? Listen and find out if Jeff, Dylan and Adam think murderous angels, Alanis Morissette as God and a poop demon make Dogma worth the price of eternal damnation or not.
