To me, this movie is perfection.

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

The first must-see film of the year.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Shades of the Family and the house at C Street! This could have been (may have been!)an inspirational film for Those-Who-Won't-Be-Named in the right-wing elite. The basic premise is "make money while justifying anything you want to do." Taken as a straight film, it's atrocious - the reproduction is bad, the sound is bad, the writing is sophomoric, the acting ... (you get the idea) But as a piece of satire it's precious. The most troubling aspect is how precisely it portrays the greed and self-centered nature of so much of religion, business, and politics. The film makers couldn't take it to the end without a change of conscience. Now, that's a real fairy tale!

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 DVD has a picture of Sandra Bullock in the foreground on the cover. they try to make you think She is a big part of the movie,She had at best a cameo in this movie.Don't buy it, don't waste your time watching it and don't let your children or pets see it, it is that pathetic. When I bought it I was misled by the picture on the cover, I have never seen a bad Sandra Bullock movie till I bought this one.This is every bit as bad as some of the notorious "B" Movies of the 50's.This is a very low budget production that should never have been made. The cover has a big picture of Sandra Bullock and her name bold across the top giving the impression she is the lead actor, Don't fall for it! she basically has a cameo nothing more.After watching this Movie I was deeply disappointed, I am a big Sandra Bullock fan and I hope she never signs on to a movie that is so beneath her acting abilities again.

Sandra Bullock, bless her heart, is on screen for mere fleeting moments in this dunghill of bad writing, bad production values, bad concept, bad acting, this agglomeration of remorseless stupidity that should never have been made. Everything that Bullock has done from this movie forward is undoubtedly partly done to put this movie farther and farther behind her. In this film, a talentless loser is visited by God who tells him to start a corporation, but neglects to say what sort of company. Talentless loser decides that it would be a clever idea to start a new religion, with greed and self interest as the cornerstones. "The worst of capitalism and the best of Christianity" is the general idea. Wow! How imaginative! Big surprise, the idea works, the TL is raking in the dough, and then, surprise! he Sees The Light, declares himself and the religion a bad idea, a fraud, and gives it all up. In the end, for the final Huge Surprise, TL and Sandra Bullock are reunited on a tropical island paradise (well, we don't know that, we only see the inside of the plane terminal), he declares his love, she accepts him for some unfathomable reason, and they walk off down the hallway in blissful togetherness, probably grateful to have this wretched stinkball of a movie behind them. This film is actually worse than Governor Arnie's The Villain, which is really bad.
