The God Who Wasn't There (2005)
The follow through wasn't there
He's not quite as pushy and annoying as Michael Moore, but the narrator of this film is on a mission nonetheless. I propose that we create a new genre of to distinguish biased documentaries: bocumentary? Not that I am faulting this "bocumentary" for it, nor do I believe that a documentary can be completely without bias.
The amazing first half of the film has a lot of interesting facts about the early days of Christianity, however the film devolves into almost a personal vendetta that the narrator has for the private Christian school he attended while growing up. The soundtrack is really hit or miss, at times heightening, others distracting. I don' think that you have to be Christian or atheist to enjoy this one. Fun to watch if you are still questioning...which we all should be.
