Negative—The movie was well made, when it comes to photography, acting, etc. There were two places the movie goes really wrong. First there is a scene in which on the back wall of the office of Frank Cross (played by Bill Murray) there is a definition of a cross, reading “something you nail people too.” In another scene, the Lord’s name is taken in vain, many times. Exodus chapter 20, verse 7, shows it being unacceptable to do this.
My Ratings: [Extremely Offensive / 5]
