Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

tobias_nakat My absolute favorite film. Wanda Sykes as Rita delivers an Oscar worthy performance and the child actors are brilliant. The humour was fantastic and had me rolling in laughter. The story is heartwarming and Joel Coen (No Country For Old Men) writes another Oscar worthy screenplay.Recommend to Christians, movie lovers, and family's in need of a great laugh and a good time.

areatw I think most people would agree that 'Evan Almighty' isn't a patch on the original 'Bruce' film, but judging it on its own merits, this is a fairly average family movie and certainly not the disaster that some reviewers and critics have made it out to be. Okay, it's nothing special and it's nowhere near as funny or imaginative as its predecessor, but for entertainment value it isn't that bad.Steve Carrell is good as Evan, but he's certainly no Jim Carrey, who has an effortless ability to get laughs out of any material. The plot is original but also predictable and typical of a family film, with by far the best part of the film being its ending. It makes the very average first three-quarters of the film worthwhile with some brilliant special effects and cinematography. 'Evan Almighty' is an average family adventure film. It's certainly not as good as its predecessor but also not as bad as some would have you believe.

trblake First, the movie is OK, but not great in any way... butWhy are the Congressmen and Congresswomen in the cast citied as Congressperson(s). This is totally beyond me. Why is IMDb succumbing to political correctness? Only John Goodman is citied as a Congressman. I'm really surprised that they citied Morgan Freeman as GOD, since citing GOD is not politically correct in this day and age. IMDb is always touting guidelines for postings, but they themselves are being politically correct. When will they truly take a stand and cite the people for what they play as characters. The biggest joke of posting a comment is "Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimumlength for reviews is 10 lines of text". I should be able to write a review or statement without this requirement.

Neil Welch Evan Baxter, obnoxious TV newsman from Bruce Almighty, becomes a not-quite-so-obnoxious senator for no reason other than plot expediency, following which God - once more in the form of Morgan Freeman, merging gravitas with impishness - decides it's time to leave Jim Carrey alone, and have a go at Steve Carell instead. Turns out He wants Evan to build an ark in the old-fashioned Noah kind of way and, what's more, He imposes Biblical hair, beard and robes on the poor sap while he's doing it, not to mention increasing numbers of animals hanging around. This does not go down well with the Senators or, well, anyone: the consensus is that Evan has lost his marbles. However, God works in mysterious ways...This is an amiable family comedy with a little bit of (fairly obvious) heart to it. Carell handles this stuff well, the effects aren't bad, and the resolution is satisfactory. If you go into it expecting an adult movie then you may well be disappointed, because it simply isn't one. But, as a family film, it works perfectly well.
