For its moments of interest, this does not really have anything really insightful to say by Christianity. Its also dated badly within the last 20 or so years; only cheesy action and horror films can still get away with 80s rock guitar, not a Cannes festival winner with this mood and tone.

An example of a Jesus-like person in modern times. A better example of modern Phariseeism. Both fun and deeply dramatic.

Very funny, yet also an interesting story of religion and the role it plays in modern society

A playful film that is certainly entertaining - it's visually and aurally stimulating from start to finish - but which I think fails to achieve what I suspect Arcand was trying to achieve, that is 'reveal' the falsity of traditional religion and rampant consumerism. The critique of consumerism is simplistic and I emerged with more faith (not less) in some of the fundamentals of the Abrahamic religions (in particular Catholicism). I am also not convinced it presents any insights into acting.
