Featured review
Double interpretation.
I enjoyed this movie much and - living in Italy and being Italian - I was surprised by it being "somewhat" anti-religious and expecially anti-catholic, although there's an alternate, possible interpretation (see below).
The movie is undoubtly critical (and highly sarcastic) versus the privileged position enjoyed by religious institutions (expecially the catholic ones) in Italy, starting with their tax-free status which further enhances their wealth.
At the beginning, it says (more or less) "If you think this story is unlikely, please remember how unlikely are the stories by all religions". This surely IS an anti-religion statement.
But - and it's a big "but" - the movie ends with a "controversial" end that can be interpreted both as a sarcastic take on religion or a way to say "religion is powerful nevertheless" (I won't say more, to avoid spoilering).
You can see it as you please. Surely, bigots won't love it. And this could be a big "plus" by itself.
