rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author whyterabbit79 - I think this movie could have been way better than what it turned out to be. There were a lot of sloppy shots, and poor lines delivered.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author theresamomof3 - I have to say that I wasn't planning on seeing the movie.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mwisz - This movie basically takes an a cast of somewhat ho-hum actors and puts them behind a some what ho-hum script. The movie certainly has it's moments of sheer comedy. yet lacks in ways that just didn't capture my interests. Though I really enjoyed Bruce...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zairabear - Evan Almighty was a great movie. From my perspective, it rates a nine on a scale of one through ten(one being the worst). That may just be because I am an eleven year old girl who likes funny movies, but I recommend it. It's about a newsman...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mrkstvns - I could tell you that Evan Almighty is "the family feel-good movie of the 2007 summer season." But of course that would only be true if your family is the kind that really does feel good about seeing totally UN-funny comedies that are badly...

Mon, 25 Jun 2007 03:41:24 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Ed.Williamson - Evan Almighty is a feel-good movie the whole family will enjoy, yet it left me feeling strangely unmoved. It has a fairly decent story, but I felt like a number of things in it were fairly half-baked. Not exactly a plain-vanilla movie, it still...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SKAD13 - It really is a miracle. Evan Almighty is the best fantasy-comedy (and family film, for that matter) since The Santa Clause (1994). Let me preface by saying that I wasn't a fan of this movie's prequel, Bruce Almighty. A...
