Lord, Save Us from Your Followers (2008)
Not very good
I was hoping to see a Documentary film about a very divisive issue in our culture. Instead I came away feeling like I saw a fluff piece or J Leno's man on the street skit. The title is very misleading. The few times it touched on some of the more outrageous claims made by prominent Televangelist, It seemed to just gloss over them. Why were these Televangelists not interviewed? It had several decent interviews with obscure theologians which were the highlight of the movie. However I had never heard of any of them. It did have clips of interviews with prominent, progressive religious leaders but again no in depth interviews with these leaders. The only time it seemed to get it's hands a little dirty was on the issue of Homosexuality and the church, even then though it just had a fluffy feel to it. Nothing new and insightful in this movie. Wait for the DVD or skip it all together.
