Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

esklepios Hard to believe that as I write, this is 9 years old. I was pointed to it by Avi Tuschman's book: Our Political Nature: The Evolutionary Origins of What Divides Us and bought the DVD.A satire on organized religion (but not amoral or without compassion), a satire on Kantian ethics, and the way some women and some men choose partners I found this deeply uncomfortable to watch - AND WELL WORTH IT. Not surprised some people left the cinema, I ended up watching much of it in 5 - 15 minute chunks mainly because of the cringe factor.The opening part of the film is definitely the funniest as people calmly offer their real thoughts and actions rather than polite platitudes. After that the film gets down to serious business and there are few laugh out loud moments. While the first lie emerges as a counter to job loss and potential eviction, we soon see lying being used to help the troubled, the homeless and street poor. The potential for happy myths to do real harm is touched on but not really explored, while the potential of happy myths to do some good is explored in a little more depth.For the most part the acting is excellent, though the Gervais monologue at his mother's headstone could have gone on the editor's floor. The music and choice of songs suited well and I certainly had no problem with the cinematography.If you can cope with some discomfort you will have some laughs, and certainly be left with something to think about and talk about.

stanislashildebrandt The idea of the film is not meant for a film that's longer than 5 minutes, and in fact there is about 5 minutes if not less, of funny material in the whole film. It is generally a waste of time. I wasn't expecting much from Ricky Gervais, who really thinks he is funnier than he actually is, but this was even below my expectations. Louis C.K. does a good job with his secondary role and there isn't enough of him. This movie should be showed in film school as an example of a bad movie.

Smoreni Zmaj IMDb says comedy/fantasy/romance... it has elements of all 3, that's a fact, but it is not what determine this movie. I would say entertaining and occasionally funny satire of humanity, that hits some painful spots and makes you think about world we live in. It is not real comedy and definitely isn't real love movie. You can not say it is romance movie only because there are some people who fall in love in it. Still, like many times before, I think this is one fantastic idea wasted on mediocre movie. It could've been done much much better and I hope someone will try to make improved remake, cause it would be shame if this idea remains in this movie only. As much as I am amazed with the essence of the story, because of lousy realization I'll rate it 7/10.

Hossam Alaa I think the concept is extremely smart. The cast is great and I really enjoyed watching the movie. Also the movie focused on two important parts the we see everyday:1-Judging other people from how they look. (Loser, fat, successful, bad husband ... etc) 2-How dangerous religion (whatever the religion is) can be, when it's not something personal. It discusses how you can be controlled and manipulated your whole life by someone who MIGHT be lying. **IMPORTANT** Just to be honest, if you feel offended by watching sarcastic scenes about religions, then I wouldn't recommend this movie for you.
