4/10
Good message, bad execution

You know it is actually possible to be pro gay-marriage and be vocal about it without insulting the Bible harshly. This 3-minute musical short film is nothing more than blasphemy. Another weakness is that it's all in your face and the people in here need a lesson on subtlety. Badly. Still I cannot deny it was fun to see John C. Reilly in here. Neil Patrick Harris wasn't bad either and I can see why he was in here with his background as this issue especially concerns him. Jack Black was truly embarrassing. I always thought that he was a bad actor, but here he takes it to new lows. And then Maya Rudolph. Oh well, what can I say about her... She is not attractive, not a good actress and completely annoying in basically everything she is in even if Hollywood has tried to convince us differently for a long long time. Literally, she made a career out of being together with one of the best directors of our time, but she has no talent, no versatility herself. really nothing. The director here is Adam Shankman and I am a huge fan of his "A Walk to Remember". One of my favorite films of all time. The writer is Marc Shaiman, who received 5 Oscar nominations already in the music categories. Still what the duo came up with here is not funny, it's a die in my opinion. Not recommended.
