One of my Favorite Movies of all Time

I think Dogma is one of my favorite movies of all time. I do not agree with some of the statements made in the movie, but I love the flick. All the performances are wonderful except for the lead actor, Linda Fiorentino. She was terrible. All the speeches, esp Bartleby's speech to Loki after they were thrown from the train. I am trying to think of my favorite movies, and why this one is my favorite, or one of my favorites. It flys in the face of contemporary christianity and it's naive train of thought. Anyway, this is a movie that I could watch at anytime. It is quite a bit corse.

Oh yea, I love all t actors in the movie. I think they are all really good. (And such!) It has a lot to say about God and theology

Alan Rickman plays Metatron, the angel who serves as the Voice of God and has to make a most challenging visit to earth when humanity is threatened.
Ben Affleck stars as Bartleby, a fallen angel looking for a way home.
George Carlin appears as Cardinal Glick, founder of the movement Catholicism Wow, who unwittingly opens up a celestial loophole that could end the human race.
Matt Damon is Loki, the exiled angel of death looking for a way home.
Linda Fiorentino portrays DOGMA's heroine, Bethany, who attempts to save the human race by going on a pilgrimage to New Jersey
Salma Hayek is the heavenly muse Serendipity who inspires passion, poetry and art . . . when she's in the mood.
Jason Lee is a hotheaded demon with an appetite for indoor air conditioning.
Jason Mewes is the New Jersey prophet Jay, whose purpose is mysterious, even to himself.
Chris Rock is a 13th Apostle: the disgruntled and outspoken Rufus.

I friggin love Alan Rickman.

I highly recomend the flick.

All I have to say is YESSS! Kevin Smith is my hero, and I'm glad I could share this and his other movies with you.
