bad mormon film!
14 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
The Book of Mormon Movie is a bad attempt to show religious values. This is a low budget film with unrealistic costumes and sets.

The biggest problem faced by this movie is that the writers put in too much information, "beating a dead horse" with a strongly didactic message. By trying too hard, I left the film rooting for Laman, instead of the protagonist because Nephi was an arrogant man who made zero mistakes.

I was completely removed during the dialogue because characters would randomly jump from modern colloquial language to scriptural language. PICK ONE and stick with it. The acting and/or writing was horrible because the characters were not "real", but were a fictitious rendering of iconic people. I hope that any future endeavors will learn from the many mistakes in this film.
