Dogma, Blu-rayReview created: 05/13/08
by:
The move is controversial, the jokes are far and between, but when it works, it works. Stellar cast. Excellent transfer, but the regular DVD would get the job done just as well.

Kevin Smith's 1999 film Dogma starts out before the credits roll with several disclaimers saying "We're sorry if the movie you are about to see is offensive, but we were just out to make a piece of funny fantasy, blah-blah-blah...." That in itself is enough to serve you notice that whoever put this movie together knew that somebody was going to be Almightily offended. In that, they succeeded. A few years ago I read a book on writing jokes and humor, and the book said that when you were being funny, you could laugh at certain things but certain things were no-nos. Among the things you weren't..

With Kevin Smith, you either love him or hate him. There really is no middle ground. Which is why I've always been a little outcast in the area; I think he's great at times and definitely has his moments, but I'm not a die-hard fan. For anyone reviewing Dogma (and it is quite an honor to be the 465th person to do so, this should bring in some big bucks!) it should be required that they list how they stand on the subject of Kevin Smith films. This way, you'll know where the reviewer is coming from, and if you are likely (or not) to agree with his/her opinion of the film. So, then, I loved...

My review title was one of the movie Dogma s taglines back in 1999 and an apt one that promises comedy, soul searching and some theological commentary. Kevin Smith, a practicing Catholic schooled by nuns, writes, co-directs, co-produces and co-stars as Silent Bob in a movie some radical, humorless Catholics have deemed offensive. Most people do not, although may find the running sarcasm of some Catholic beliefs to be tasteless. In the beginning, not that Beginning, silly, but in this movie, we see a homeless man bushwhacked beside a beach by grim-faced hockey players. Suddenly we re...
