Don't Believe the Hype

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The acting in this movie is really good.

The film shows some of the complete hoax that is Christianity. Namely the fact that preachers, pastors, parsons, and so on are con artists who stand up and lie to their congregations every week. There is no "God", god is a character in the fictional book the Bible. So they talk nonsense about an imaginary characters plan for those in the audience. Stupid comes up and asks how does one know what gods plan is for them? Exactly the point, there is no god, there is therefore no plan from god. It's complete garage and it doesn't do anyone any good to believe in such nonsense. Of course the Christians are in complete self delusion and lap up this nonsense that is preached to them. It's just such garbage, it's fake, it's phony, it's the cause of self-righteous judgmental thinking that they are holier than thou. That they are somehow "saved" and must inflict their delusional thinking onto others that they may be saved. I wish I'd not bothered watching this movie as it's a bore, it's not funny, it goes the way of drama and artificial redemption. What it is is a drama film about some guys scamming a charity. Then they have a change of heart. What looks like it's pointing fun at the ridiculousness of this religion is actually a story about said guys having a change of ways. The implication is that the power of god while they were on tour is the cause of this change of heart. So as in my title, it's a Christian movie as it shows the power of god at work in the lives of these sinners. It's enough to make you puke but at least Christianity is being phased out in the NWO.

So, is this movie set in 1998 or earlier? Because if it's set in modern times, then these four lads wouldn't have had a prayer of convincing anyone of their Christian and charitable intentions. It's interesting that none of the Christians or college students pulled out their smart phones to use Google or Facebook or Twitter. I guess they couldn't because the movie would have ended right then and there. Just one Facebook photo of these a-holes at a frat party drinking, chasing girls and beating up pledges would have killed their whole "Christian" fakery.But of course Christians and college students do use social media, so the whole premise of this film is silly. No million-dollar tour--and particularly not a Christian evangelical tour--would use an untested group of four as the center of their presentation. These guys would be scrutinized and vetted seven different ways from Sunday. (Oh, I forgot, the tour manager did see them one time at some cheap college frat party and kind of liked their lame presentation, totally copied from another lame presentation.) Imagine the scandal if one of these dudes tried to seduce little Mary Lou Holypants while high on Jesus. It would destroy the tour. (To its credit the film did raise this point when the tour manager told the music director that a pastor was a little too loose in the pants a few years earlier and almost destroyed their entire mission.)But then again, why let the truth get in the way of a bad story?

Believe Me had an awesome trailer and I was very much looking forward to this movie. I must say that I am very surprised at the excellent production value of the movie.The humor in the movie is classy and isn't cheesy.The movie doesn't force you any Christianity but instead is 90 minutes of excellent plot & great direction.This is the first Christian movie that I have thoroughly enjoyed and wanted to watch for a second time just so that I can revisit the wonderful & witty humor.Excellent acting by the 4 guys combined with never seen before Christian satire makes this movie one of my favorites in recent years!

This movie was SO funny! I absolutely enjoyed watching it! I love the way it pokes fun at religion and makes you think about it. It was entertaining and thought provoking. For sure one of my new favorite movies. The cast is also incredible. Nick Offerman is one of my all time favorite actors and to see him in this made it that much better. And the fact that Alex Russell is in it doesn't hurt. He plays his character flawlessly and his looks aren't bad either. The cast, director and writers did a phenomenal job on this film. I highly recommend it to people of all walks of life. I don't know anyone who wouldn't find this move entertaining. GO SEE BELIEVE ME!
