An action-packed slog

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

With all the negative comments posted I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents. If you want a comedy with big laughs all the way, then this is not for you. And the production etc. is obviously not much to speak of. But if you're in for a little satire on religion, then you might as well watch this. It doesn't go after any of the known religions, but rather after mass hysteria, preachers as well as greed and egoism. There are some unfulfilled premises, like what happens with the short-sellers, and the traditional religions in the end. The acting is so-so, but Gerald Orange is for sure a very believable preacher. It's not one to buy, but if it's on TV, then have a look.

This was just about one of the worst movies I have seen! It is about a guy who is fired from his job and while very drunk is supposedly visited and told by God to start a new religion. He decides to start a self-satisfaction religion causing a huge uproar. It was, in my opinion, 81 minutes of pure torture. Sandra Bullock is advertised blatantly on the cover but she has only a very small role. She does well in her role, but it is too small to help the movie any. The movie honestly has no plot, and pretty bad acting. The end is quite bad, showing Sandra Bullock's character getting back with her lazy, jerky boyfriend. In reality, he deserved to be dumped- considering his made-up religion gets her beat-up and hospitalized. I would not recommend watching, renting, or buying this movie unless you are into movies with bad acting and no plot. If you do happen to watch this movie, I suggest you get into a vegetative state as this is the only way you will get through the entire movie.

I've seen this movie many times and it's very funny from start to finish.Who would have thought that forming your own religion that promotes greed and selfishness would be so funny. It really gets rolling when the cast of leaders is chosen, especially the custodian. And it just snowballs from there. George Plimpton puts on a spectacular performance. The scary thing is that the plot could work in real life.Religion, Inc, is to religion what Spinal Tap is to musicians.Definitely not to be missed.Highly recommended.

This is the worst movie I have seen in a long time. I watched it all the way through hoping for some redeeming ending but there was none. I was very glad to see that this is only the second movie for Sandra Bullock.
