Editorial Reviews

Description When Steve Myers is told the lightning that struck and obliterated his fishing boat was an Act of God and not a penny shall he receive, he decides that this excuse is not good enough. And so he sues God. Steve Myers is the protagonist in the feisty, frighteningly relevant romantic comedy THE MAN WHO SUED GOD. Billy Connolly stars as Steve Myers, bringing humour as well as the kind of depth and realness to his character with which he touched audiences around the world in Mrs Brown. Judy Davis is Anna Redmond, a well known but jaded media personality who inspires Steve to teach the insurance companies a lesson. THE MAN WHO SUED GOD is a film about the universal experience of hypocrisy and injustice fought by an ordinary person who takes on the corporate sharks.

This review is from: The Man Who Sued God [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Sweden ] (DVD)

I first saw this film in Australia about 3 years ago,and again in the U.S durring an Australian Film Festival.From start to finish,this film is hilarious and absoloutely brilliant!Billy Connelly is amongst my favorite comedic actors,and he puts just the right ammount of flavor into this film.It couldn't have been done right by anyone else.I dare not give away anythng about this film,you'd hunt me down to sue also.The title itself is well worth watching...it is so proposterous in nature.Just thinking about it gives me the giggles.The bad guys get what they deserve,and even in the end Billy walks away with a clean slate.If I could award this film with six stars or more I would.It is amongst my favorite Australian comedies,you can't go wrong seeing this film,let alone owning it.It's one to keep for years and is family friendly for the most part,as long as you have a sense of humor and aren't terribly offended by God and religion being sued.Come to think of it,it's actually not such a bad idea?
