The Book of Clarence

7.6 - An enigma. It takes risks everywhere: camera work, music, genre & art bending & blending, & most notably in its writing & biblical adaptation. Unsure if it’s more righteous or blasphemous. I grew up religious & now am not, so I connected with this in interesting ways.

“nigga what?”

An odd take on the bible. It's unclear what the final message is supposed to be as they kind of contradict themselves the entire film. They have scenes where they say atheism means you will never be loved by God or Jesus, then the next they literally show God or Jesus loving him

8.5/10

I went in to this skeptical of potential mockery of Christianity. Instead I thought it was a brilliantly creative story. Comedy sprinkled throughout, an interesting take on different Bible characters and a really good redemption story all while remaining fairly respectful
