Alexander Walker London Evening Standard 05/20/2022
The only thing this crude, much-cut piece of flamboyant profanity has in its favour is topicality. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey 48 Hills 03/15/2023
[A] narrative feature that variously parodies televangelism... Go to Full Review
John Coleman Observer (UK) 05/20/2022
At least three pop videos are buried somewhere in this event, with all the pointless surrealism that entails. Go to Full Review

09/09/2010 I could not recomend this movie See more 01/24/2008 Viggo and Exene, very interesting to see them together. See more 12/01/2007 The only reason you would even be looking for this review is because it was Viggo Mortensen 3rd Screen film and Exene's first. If your just wanting to get a look at them back then then go ahead and buy this. (In my opinion Exene is still beautiful, a great music artist and hasn't changed) They were in another movie together but you don't get but a second of seeing them. As for a movie yes,it's pretty rediculous, although it will set new light to evangelism. It left me saying hmm. So much for Tammy Faye. lol See more 11/25/2007 this movie is weird and badly acted. I mean, the premise is a good one - that people get sucked into these fake TV evangelists. But, it felt like it was just a bunch of people on acid. Behind the camera and in front. bleh. See more 09/26/2007 no good, thumbs down. The plot of this movie sucks to, it is down the drain. I don't know how a plot like this is suppose to give Faith when it's plot is so crappy. See more 04/14/2007 Ick, Viggo's a greasy slimeball, and the movie is rather odd, but it's interesting to see Viggo acting with his ex-wife, Exene, and Stephen McHattie, who he will work with again in A History of Violence many years later...
