A Funny, Charming Fantasy

Dogma has plenty of funny religion-themed gags, but I was entertained by it mainly because I liked just about all of the characters and I enjoyed most of their dialogue.There's not a lot of substance behind what they're saying, unlike in, say, Tarantino's films, but the fact that it's all fairly low-brow and goofy is what makes it good. Jay and Bob are fantastic with their little stoner quips.The plot is fairly weak, but it's not supposed to be brilliant. It's easy to tell that Kevin Smith just enjoys playing around with Catholicism by poking and prodding at it.Also, George Carlin is what was his usual comedic self in his cameo.

Highly recommended for fans and future fans alike

Dogma is firmly rooted in Kevin Smith's View Askew world so fans of his other films will not be disappointed. However, it also expands on the direction he took in Chasing Amy by dealing with subject matter and concepts that are personal and thought provoking. Dogma goes beyond the "dick and fart jokes", which are reassuringly present, and gives the viewer something to think about.The film deals with thoughts on religion, Catholicism mainly, in a way that pokes fun at the institution but does not deride it. Dogma is by no stretch of the imagination an anti-Catholic movie. It embraces religion and points out the potential and actual problems that can occur within any religious institution. The film's comments and contents are definitely meant to be taken with a grain of salt.The cast is great and there are many instances of hilarious viewing, usually Jay and Silent Bob, as well as very sensitive and expressive moments from the various actors.In the end, Dogma is a thoroughly fun and thoughtful viewing experience that both old and new fans will enjoy. A movie outside the typical fare that is worth spending your money on seeing.

Good Work

I watched this movie with some expectations in the comedy department and I am glad to say that I am satisfied. This movie can make you laugh and think at the same time. The performance given by Alan Rickman and Chris Rock stands out. The director made sure that the concept wasn't overburdening to the viewers and also that it didn't hurt religious feelings of the viewers. This is one of the best executed comedy movies of all time,not just because of the acting, but also because of the scenario and story. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck does justice to their roles of the rogue angles. Damon was at his usual best,while Affleck did best to keep up and i can safely say that he succeeded.Hats off,to the cast and crew.
