Christians, no doubt. Look no further than Christian rock. And while virtually every legit critic in America ripped "Evan Almighty," James Dobson loved it:
"We perceived Evan Almighty as a very entertaining movie which, although 'over the top' at times in its slapstick humor, will delight most viewers. It has many laudable features, including a strong presentation of family values and a [Ed. note: spoiler alert!] 'feel good' ending. The storyline includes no illicit sex or violence and was better—far better—than the usual Hollywood fare."
So did the Christian Broacasting Network:
"The movie not only offers an entertaining story, but it provides some heart-warming glimpses of how God often works in our lives. While the plot appeals to adults, the film's physical comedy and silly animal antics provide ample fodder to keep the young ones entertained as well. Load up the kids and climb aboard for a fun adventure!"
Crosswalk.com raves:
"Does Evan Almighty deliver laughs? It does. Not the side-clutching, gut-busting guffaws of the best comedies, but a gentle amusement, with several chuckles along the way. It's a summer blockbuster for the under-10 set, as well as teens and adults."
