Yet another film I liked more the second time. Had some great writing. The "shit demon" scene brings it down a bit and Fiorentino could of done better. However Rickman, Affleck and Damon were all great. Jay and Silent Bob were funny as usual. Some minor let downs but a great movie none-the-less.

Affleck and Damon are a pleasure to watch as embittered angels, while Fiorentino generally sucks out all the exuberant and irreverant energy by her presence. The rest of the movie has its moments.

Kevin Smith attempts to make an educational, yet funny film about Catholicism and fails in both departments. The humour and the knowledge of religion are completely separated, meaning that scenes are either boring or unfunny. Smith is able to show in this film only a sense of the talented writer-director that he has proven in the Clerks films, but here it comes off as wonky and lazy; this can especially be noticed in the underwhelming fight/action sequences.

WARNING: You must be comfortable with your feelings on religion to be able to enjy this movie. That being said, this is my second favorite Kevin Smith film, right behind Clerks. Damon and Affleck are fantastic. Fiorentino's work is very good as the very confused Last Scion. My only real complaint with the movie is the prominance of Jay and Silent Bob (even though they are crucial to the plot). Even the casting of Alanis Morrisette is clever. Favorite Silent Bob line, "No tickets." - c

Kevin Smith at his best. This controversial comedy is a brutally honest look at religion. It's got Smith's flare for pop culture, and his clever dialogue is snappy and hilarious. It's not a serious film, but you can still watch it and talk about it like it is. If you have a thing against making fun of a religion a little, well... don't see it, or quit being a baby and see it anyway. Really good!

Arguably Smith's most ambitious effort to date in the irreverent fun he is having with theological concepts and contradictions is a fascinating if overstuffed exercise; while he can't quite reconcile his penchant for freewheeling dialogue against the "seriousness" of his subject matter, the film still works as a cheerful piece of entertainment, with a game cast (highlighted by Affleck and Damon's double-act) bringing a life and energy whenever the philosophical digressions threaten to overwhelm.

Maybe not quite as great as I remember, but still an impressive achievement from Smith. Other than the occasionally slow pacing and having too much Jay and Silent Bob it's a film that meshes storytelling, dialogue and world crafting into varied and highly effective comedy. It's also a reminder that yes, Smith was a capable director at one point.

Going in expecting religious satire is a great mistake, one which is immediately revealed as the totally transparent attempt to pass juvenile humour by tacking it on to religion becomes apparent. Despite the interesting premise Dogma undermines itself at every turn, eventually leading it into a total cinematic limbo, only accompanied by the dull finale and a demon made of excrement. Ironically, the latter actually manages to briefly raise the tone of the movie. A completely trivial experience.

My favourite Keven Smith movie, although I think to fully appreciate it you need to have a pretty indepth knowledge of the Catholic Church, as well as a sense of humour. Every character in this is hilarious. The only part I didn't like is the "shit demon" which just felt tacked on and silly. Aside from that I was laughing from start to finish.

There are plenty of highs and interesting points in this film. For instance, is it morally permissible for a Christian to allow a brain dead person (living only by virtue of life support) to die if keeping him alive means the end all existence? There are a number of weak points too, but it's excellent overall. See it for the airport, Mooby, and "Catholicism, WOW!" scenes if nothing else.

Kevin Smith shows how he's grown as a director and screenwriter, but he's still Kevin Smith, and Kevin Smith makes movies for Kevin Smith first and foremost. In this case, Smith questions his Catholic faith, if only superficially; the movie doesn't ask any questions that can't be answered via, well, dogma.

In “Dogma” (1999), fallen angels Bartleby and Loki plan to exploit a loophole in Catholic doctrine to return to Heaven, sparking a celestial crisis. With irreverent humor and satire, the film explores faith, morality, and existential themes while delivering a darkly hilarious and action-packed adventure within the View Askewniverse.

Tell me all you want about this movie's rough edges. In my heart it will always remain a precise, cathartic, unrelenting middle finger to the titular idea within Christianity. As poignant as it is hilarious, as epic as it is intimate, as pro-god as it is anti-church, This is Kevin Smith's satire at its finest. Flawlessly casted and endlessly quotable, Dogma is a must-see for anyone who's felt chained to antiquated, arbitrary ideologies. In other words, everyone needs to see this movie.

I just found it annoying. The entire film is one continuous schtick about how some angels are half-assed cynical superbeings. They develop the entire idea in the first 10 minutes and from there the presentation just repeats itself. There is an underlying theme of karma that's morally gratifying but is delivered with such pretentiousness that it's difficult to fully appreciate.

Never quite know how to rate Kevin Smith films. Clearly, I take issue with his existential paradigm, but damn, he really writes a compelling human drama. I often feel his comedy trends overly sadistic, and his characters trend misogynistic, petty, venal & lowbrow, but as such, he captures certain people perfectly, in ways that make them more obviously absurd than disappointing. Dogma is a departure from his lowkey, taciturn style. More flamboyant & over the top than usual. I think I enjoyed it.

Believe it or not, there was a time when critics had expectations for Kevin Smith films, and he delivered his most ambitious film yet: an epic satire of contemporary American religiosity that pokes fun at fundamentalism from the perspective of a true believer with a dirty mind. Its mix of low brow humour and pseudo-philosophical dialogue is amusing at first, but it quickly gets old, and Smith lacks the technical skills necessary to lend the material a real sense of grandeur.

Top badass moment? Bethany saves all of existence. Not quite as impressive as my dealing with the trauma of having a wisdom tooth removed yesterday, but it's still pretty badass. 1 decapitation, no cats or chainsaws. (Well it's an exploding head really, but let's not quarrel over semantics.) I think there's also at least one headless body too, but technically that's not a decapitation; well okay it is, but it's not what we're looking for here exactly as we don't get to see it happen, although...

Provocative and audacious, Dogma is an uneven but thoughtful religious satire that's both respectful and irreverent.

Dogma is the only Kevin Smith film I like. The whole thing is completely ridiculous, but it's interesting and audacious none the less. The laughs are hit and miss though and the same can be said for the cast. Rickman steals the show. Jay & Silent Bob are dumb but comical. And although I'm not the biggest fan of Damon and Affleck, they're a humorous pairing. But Fiorentino, Hayek, Rock and Lee all do absolutely nothing for me. Audacious and interesting, but all round very average at best.

Dogma should be Kevin's brightest film, but it might actually be his dumbest. Overstuffed with uninteresting characters and jokes that have aged really bad -- execept for Buddy Christ, which would be a great concept for the current revolution being held by the new Pope --, the director's light, but analytical take on faith seems toi thin to either fully entertain or provoke. And, well, how can one like it when there is a Shit Demon and a silent Alanis who calls the shots as God, huh?

I enjoyed this movie quite a bit. The thing that surprised me is some pretty damn good and funny performances from a star studded cast. Affleck and Damon were great, Rickman commanded the screen when he was on, and same with Chris Rock. Easily my favourite Kevin Smith movie so far. It had me laughing out loud through a bunch of it, so right there will make it great in my mind.

I thought this was enjoyable. I found it funny in parts, but felt that sometimes it took itself a little bit too seriously. It's an interesting idea with some good performances from Damon, Affleck, and Rickman. I don't really have an opinion on the religious satire or whatever.

There are a lot of movies about the Apocalypse, but few are as unfunny as this one. Furthermore, it seems to fancy itself an edgy theological satire. Its edgy plot revolves around the issue of plenary indulgences, the hottest religious issue of the early 16th century. Its satire revolves around ceaselessly affirming the most average, wishy-washy, meaningless, unchallenging, babbling lowest-common-denominator version of cream-cheese comfort-food "spirituality" to be found in 1999 America.

I don't know why, but even though sense tells me that this is a movie I should not like, I still do. It has a nasty sense of humour that still knows its limits, shows Afflec in a badass role that suits him much better than all the softie ones before and has a refreshing way of looking at Christianity. Minus points for really weird looking wings...

I thought this movie was brilliant as a teen, but I was a teenager and even the stupid toilet jokes were high humor to me. I still think it does a good job satirizing religion for the most part (Buddy Christ and Alanis as God are still brilliant) but why is there a poop monster?
