Review of Religulous (2008) by Applek. — 03 Oct 2008

I won't review this film, much. Rather I will make some points others are not bringing up, it seems. 1) He has balls. To take ask questions and make a couple mild jokes in Jeruselum, attempting a logical argument "couldn't this holy stone have been a meteor?".

I only respect him for risking his life, to raise such questions in other countries in this film, with much more "fluid" ideas of freedom of speech, especially about religion. Other than that, I was pleasantly surprised that he did grant many of his interviews a respect for them personally, while just raising provocative, important, and sometimes funny questions.

This is a movie everyone should see, and hopefully be able to not take it as any sort of attack or bigotry. It is NOT. It is simply one intelligent comedian's, brave and uncompromising search for a real intelligent discourse on the final Taboo of Mankind.
