I was looking for reviews of a new movie "Snow Angels" and I found this. It makes me so angry when people that have the ability to reach millions make such statements. I want to mail him but all I can think of at the moment is to say "You're so stupid".

Not a very brilliant retort... smash

Despite some foreshadowing in the opening scene, the film's change of key in the second half feels like a betrayal. Layered characters become billboards for trite ideas. When somebody starts talking about Jesus Christ as his savior, you know you're in for a dire time of it.

"eejit" is the term you were looking for, what did Kyle think the movie was about? I don't go to an Eddie Murphy concert for religious conversion or to Toy'R'Us for a new Buick.

He is buying into that whole "you can't talk about Jesus" agenda that the muslims and the far left have going.

I sent a letter to the editor asking for an apology. laugh I probably won't get one, but at least I made my distaste known.

I understand why he said it, but honestly, it has absolutely no bearing. If every movie were to have the same, sappy, Jesus-loves-me ending, yea then I can really see where the guy is coming from. However, and do realize I'm saying this without seeing the movie as he could always be right in some way, there are rarely any movies these days with a Christian, not just Jesus, ending.
