While on one level it's pure irreverently comedic entertainment, what Linda Fiorentino's character experiences and works through touches most of us in some way - if you have ever looked to the Heavens and thought 'God - if You really love me - WHY IS THIS HAP PENING TO ME?!' you can relate to her character, and she does a great job with the role. The irreverence quotient on this movie tops the charts, so if you don't have a sense of humor - do NOT, repeat, DO NOT buy this movie! There is about NOTHING more rewarding for me - as a Unitarian who teaches at a Catholic school - than to turn on 'recovering Catholics' to this movie. The dynamic between Ben Afflect and Matt Damon is in turn hilarious and extremely serious/intense. The cast is stellar, and their performances are great. I rented this movie a few summers back and thoroughly enjoyed it. Totally worth it - even if you're NOT Catholic! Smith's controversial (and very funny) film is powered by his trademark dialogue, ripe with observations on pop culture, religion, and bodily functions. Before long, all hell breaks loose (literally), and God (Alanis Morrisette) has to put in an appearance of her own.

She finds help in muses, prophets (Jay and Silent Bob), and the forgotten 13th apostle, Rufus (Chris Rock). As they make their way to New Jersey to receive a plenary indulgence, God dispatches a seraphim (Alan Rickman) to recruit lapsed-Catholic Bethany (Linda Fiorentino) to stop the angels.

It concerns banished angels, Loki (Matt Damon) and Bartleby (Ben Affleck) who, after a few millennia in Wisconsin, discover a loophole in Catholic doctrine that would allow them back into heaven-but prove the fallibility of God and destroy the universe. Imaginative theology and a bigger-than-usual budget make Kevin Smith's (CHASING AMY, CLERKS) fourth film a kind of post-Catholic fantasy that only a comic-book enthusiast of his caliber could dream up.
