| I loved this movie. Its totally funny. The ending gave me goosebumps and portrays a thought provoking message of the "no matter what everlasting" love of God. Sean Penn especially was hilarious as was John C. Reilly's character and the moments these two share together. Overall a heartwarming and touching movie with funny bits thrown in. Not for someone looking to debate faith with logic in mind. |

| Save your money. Save your time. This movie makes Ishtar seem bearable. If you have not seen the original film of 'We're No Angels' - whose cast was better than this version's by the way, and the script far surpassed this dud, then find a copy of the original. It's got Humphrey Bogart and Peter Ustinov - two of the best reasons I know for watching a movie - along with the inimitably villainous Basil Rathbone and the bumbling likeable Leo G. Carroll (aka Mr. Waverly in 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.'). Sean Penn left comedy behind with Ridgmont High and can't seem to find that magic again. Robert DeNiro is certainly capable of comedy but first he needs a truly funny script. Everyone has something they don't want on their resume, and I'd guess that for both actors it's this movie. |

| I am not comparing movies, but like so many the original is
better. It would be nice to have the 1955 version in letter box released in DVD also. It is a wonderful movie and Humphrey
Bogart's last. Thanks |
| Rating | | | Date | March 31, 2004 | | Summary | the big movie now, is "The Passion of Christ" | Content
| this is the big movie now; but this movie; maybe one needs to be Roman Catholic to totally get it and in that way; some might brace themselves for some sacrilege but it really is not so; it is a very spiritual movie; Penn and Deniro both put out top ranking performances; I watched it on USA network quite a few times before I knew the title of this movie and that some years prior, Humprhey Bogart made a movie with the same title but that the plots are not exactly a like. We see, some redemptions in this movie; Hoyt Axton writer of a song that had some swearing and that is the song "The Pusher" plays his role as Monsignor (or what ever precisely he was in the movie), absolutely devoutly, jovial (like an Irishman which he may well be) and perfectly; I believe, the order of Monks of which they are, are like Benedictines; the nostalgia of the movie is great, the humor, where Penn sees the sign reading some quotation from Galatians or similar; in saving their necks and getting a ride from an elderly lady, after they break out of prison. Well, is that saying a lot? Didn't follow it? Well; Sean Penn's role finds redemption in his role, iut is very inspirational; Hoyt Axton seems to find redemption in the role; the deaf girl daughter of Demi Moore, is certainly saved and redeemed; Demi as well; really, it seems that only Robt. Deniro's role, lacks the redemption and he seems to continue his scalawag ways; Comedy, how grand on a scale, when, through miraculous "God works in strange ways" events, Demi Moore's daughter loses her status of deaf mute and the first thing she can say, is "Convicts" she recognizes Penn and Deniro as being the escaped convicts, but Deniro turns it around to that she said "Converts" and saves themselves there. Deniro is worldly, Penn experiences a spiritual awakening; that ending could bring tears to the eyes of some, at least me; A+ plus plus is this movie for me. |
