Instead of confronting real problems radiating from the world's major religions Mr. Maher and Mr. Charles opt for Borat redux, making fun of silly little yokels.

Religulous has an unholy fervor that should start many bonfires.

Over-extended but nonetheless thought provoking and humorous documentary.

Rather disconcertingly, the film builds towards a vision of the apocalypse, the destructive fate that religious conflicts have in store for us -- a version of the future any hellfire preacher would be proud of.

I think this is an important movie, challenging, many beliefs that many of us seem unwilling to talk about. Mainly, though, you'll laugh...a lot.

Borat/Bruno meets Michael Moore in this funny and thought provoking attack on religion.

Maher sets out not after answers but cheap laughs that preach, so to speak, to the converted.

So if you are not already on-side with [Maher's] particular leanings, the pickings in Religulous are very slim indeed.

About half of the movie works in its snide, hit-and-run way. The other half throws more and more darts at the same balloon, long after it pops.

The Passion of the Maher
September 17, 2010
Bill Maher admittedly dresses a one-sided anti-religion diatribe in documentary linens and the hypocrites he finds make great punchlines. But he also addresses the historically proven truth of faith perverted for power and the danger posed to us all.

Maher is essentially and professionally a comic, and the measure of this movie is not just the thoughts it provokes but the laughs it generates.
