This movie started out normal, but spiraled increasingly out of control. First of all, if Mimi Rogers' character is into foursomes with strangers I don't think she's going to be so quick as to strike up a conversation with some Jehovah's Witnesses ... and then immediately want to "find God" and "be clean". I understand it's an indie film so there's no budget and they have to condense the movie, but it's just not believable. Plus, all of a sudden Sharon starts talking about "the child" and "the pearl" ... where did those even come from? and why are they never even explained? And for someone who is just recently converted, she sure does have ALL the answers. Even at the end of the movie, when her daughter is asking her all the questions about loving God and heaven and how long she has to stay in Hell .. I don't think she should know. Finally, the last half hour .. I swear the director was on acid. One minute we're in the real word and then it's just this big dream/fantasy sequence and, personally, I know there's a message but I was far too distracted by cheesy visions of reapers and sickles and the horsemen of the apocalypse.
I know this movie COULD HAVE had a great message, but the way it went about portraying it was erratic and annoying.
p.s. The one redeeming quality was that I got to see David Duchovny's naked a**.
