Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

regy1990 This is a hilarious movie. Kirby Heyborne (the actor who plays the main character) is so fun. You just have to watch it to understand the funniness. This is a movie you can watch with little kids or adults, and even though it's a comedy, you don't have to worry about dirty jokes. It's clean and even if you don't know much about 'mormons' you will still like it. And apparently I am supposed to have a certain number of lines for them to post this, so I am just going to keep typing until I have enough to qualify. as good as this movie is, I can't say much more than it will make you laugh. A lot. So kids, don't do drugs and about where babies come from. You see, when a man and a women really love each other... I have enough lines now, so watch the movie and be happy!

rionm There might be some people that think this movie was bad. However, being LDS I found this movie quite entertaining, and no I am not in Utah. I have never actually lived in Utah. That's beside the point, this movie was rather funny, and if you have ever served a mission, and experienced life afterwards it pretty much hit the nail on the head with how it feels. The story although a little far fetched is not distracting and some of the Mormon stereotypes are hilarious. All-in-all this movie is a good one to add to your collection especially if you are LDS. And by the way I thought that Wally Joyner was probably the funniest person in the whole movie. The only thing funnier was the cameo appearance of Donald Trump's hair. For those of you that have not seen it, watch the movie again and look at Wally Joyner's head as Jared (Kirby H.) finds out that he doesn't have a job anymore. Although it is dyed from the normal blonde hue, you can totally tell it is Trump's toupee.7 out of 10

rptmaestro Being in the theatre and film industry myself, I've generally been critical of cheesy LDS comedies, but The RM was not cheesy. Almost all of the humor is based on exaggeration, some of it more exaggerated than others. The contrast between Relief Society and Elder's Quorum meetings, however, was almost right on the mark, right down to the doily on top of R.S. radio and the E.Q. instructor's plea to have someone read the first 6 pages of the lesson. Having grown up in the Idaho-Utah LDS culture myself, I found much of the humor about LDS culture delightful; though I expect that members of the church from other states may miss the humor that is aimed almost exclusively at the Idaho-Utah culture.The RM fits into the farce genre, which does not require realism, depth of character, or a poignant moral, so if the viewer goes into the theatre expecting any of these, he or she is going to be disappointed.My one criticism is that the film, perhaps in its attempt to portray the humorous elements of LDS society, comes across as cynical in many scenes, and the more critical LDS viewer may find this offensive. For example, contrary to the film's depiction, Elder's Quorums do have many elders who bring their manuals, who diligently prepare lessons, and who faithfully perform their home teaching--even in Idaho and Utah. It is doubtful this perceived cynicism is intended, and it is more likely that it is merely the byproduct of the film's attempt to maximize humor.My wife and I found the film delightful. We found it far more entertaining than most of the comedies that prevail in movies theaters today--most of which are also farces, but that, despite their multi-million dollar casts, maximize humor with cheap sexual references, foul language, and cynical views of the America and the family and leave us feeling that we need to scrub our eyes and ears with a Brillo pad. Watch The RM. It's well worth your time.

drgibson Not as "good" as Singles Ward, which although amateurish, was able to weave a plot and make knowing audiences laugh at the parody. But The R.M. is pathetic. There's virtually no plot. The jokes are stale. The characters are even more of a cliche than in Singles Ward. It's very unrealistic as the RM's family manages to adopt a brother, close a house sale and move without ever telling the RM. Right. Like other "Mormon" films, characters fall in love in two minutes through sappy montages (they did that in Charlie, too). The acting is atrocious, most particularly some sad sack who plays the prosecutor late in the film. One more thing: The film is way too long. They should have trimmed it to about 70 minutes. I give it two stars because there are only two jokes in the film.
