Unfortunately, the trailer leaves out the most intriguing part of the storyline for this movie. I don't want to give it away completely, so I'll just say...there is a very humanist/unbeliever-friendly message subtly (or maybe not-so-subtly) contained within the plot, which served as the cherry on top of an already sweet little comedy co-written and directed by Ricky Gervais. In other words, if you'd like to see Biblical comedy turned on its head a bit, this is a great movie to watch. I really enjoyed it and definitely recommend it.
Quote of the Day:
"No man who has ever lived knows more about the hereafter...than you and I; and all religion...is simply evolved out of chicanery, fear, greed, imagination, and poetry."
