Good, but kind of Stupid

Religulous was a good movie, hilarious, but parts of the movie left me feeling a bit offended.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not religious by any means, but there was some jokes that Bill Maher presented that left me flabbergasted. Watching this film with my boyfriend, who was 100% atheist, was almost a bad idea. Since I believed in freedom of religion, and he called most religious people stupid, we ended up getting in a huge argument over the film. It was just crazy.

That being said, as much as I liked the documentary, there was points where I didn't. Overall, Religulous was one of the better documentaries that I've watched, but there was better ways to go around presenting information like that.

Religion Is Rediculous!

Non-believers (like me) rejoice! The truth may not set those free who cling to thier religions so tightly, but I hope it makes them think twice. There could not have been a better subject for documentation than religions impact on society and the world. Thank you Bill, you are my saint.

Losing My Religion

I probably shouldn't go to any movie when I stay up until 3:30 the night before! How could I not doze here and there? So I'm not sure I can give "Religulous" a fair rating.

However, based upon what I saw of it, it wasn't necessarily a great film, rather a film driven by a great concept. In his skepticism about organized religion, Bill Maher somehow comes off as a genuinely curious investigator, not a bombastic attacker like Michael Moore.

He's not even the comedian here; the people he interviews are funny enough on their own. And hysterically so. You can't write that stuff!

I'm tempted to compare this to "Jesus Camp", but where that was terrifying, "Religulous" is merely amusing.
