Classic Friday : Dogma (1999) 8/10

Starring : Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Linda Fiorentino, Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith, Chris Rock, Alan Rickman, Jason Lee, Salma Hayek
Director : Kevin Smith
Running Time : 124 mins

Two fallen angels, Bartleby (Affleck) and Loki (Damon), discover a loophole that can get them back into Heaven. Unfortunately doing so will undo the very fabric of the Universe, so two prophets, Jay (Mewes) and Silent Bob (Smith) are sent to get the help of an abortion clinic worker named Bethany Sloane (Fiorentino) to stop the Angels from destroying everything.

Although controversy has surrounded this movie, it is a great flick in it’s own right. It’s got everything you could want in a movie, and more. In spite of the fact that Affleck and Damon lead the cast, this movie doesn’t suffer from their mediocre acting capabilities and thankfully the brilliant script by Kevin Smith makes this at the very least his most thought provoking movie to date.
