What Would Jesus Buy

Reviewed by: Jerry, 16

Director: Morgan Spurlock

Your Rating: It was amazing!


This is a documentary film based around the life of Reverend Billy. Unlike other clergy, he preaches to get people to stop buying or spend less through comedic tones. Many people may have taken his words as joke, but the issue that he expressed truly show how corrupt our society is and also how our society had misunderstood the true purpose of Christmas.
The film took place few weeks before Christmas with Reverend Billy campaigning around several shopping centers, telling people to stop consuming. He is trying to tell people that buying gifts for each other is not what Christmas is about; it is about expressing true love, one that will bring the family closer together.
The film focused on many of our society's issues. Trying not to spoil the whole film, I only provided one of the example as seen above.
This film is probably the best I had seen so far. It is both sarcastic and educational at the same time.
I would recommend this to: thinkers
