01/08/2016 This movie doesn't know whether it wants to be a comedy or a drama. It lacks any real tension or drive. The dialogue is extremely heavy-handed, and the jokes fall flat. See more 11/16/2012 Odd casting choices and a contrived plot to center the uninspired comedy around. See more 08/08/2012 Delightful. One of the better Mormon movies. See more 03/27/2011 Surprisingly better than the other LDS movies. It wasn't as good as "Saints and Soldiers" but it was still and enjoyable flick that deserves it's "Fresh" Rating. And even if you aren't a Church member, the witty relate-able jokes are sweet and fun for the whole family. See more 08/01/2009 One of the new genre of light-hearted humorous Mormon-friendly flicks that portrays contemporary LDS life with positive but honest self-deprecation. If you've ever been to Utah--which is where these Mobsters find themselves--you quickly discover that you have but three options: rebel, conform, or leave. The Catholic family in this film did all three, in that order. The order I chose was a little different but I exercised my free will while experimenting with all three choices. Mobsters and Mormons is a bit cheesy but provides enough entertainment for a mindless Saturday afternoon of avoiding paying bills or other such drab necessities of modern American life. Mormons will appreciate the way the film tells their story. Gentiles, as non-Mormons are called by members of this church, will better understand the method and the meaning behind much of what appears to be simple madness. And those of us labeled apostates, or even worse, Sons of Perdition, get just under two hours of therapy for the flat rate charged by NetFlix.

It raises a great question - can everyone be welcome at Church? See more Read all reviews
