Analysis of Dogma

A female descendant of Christ named Bethany, along with two unlikely prophets, Jay and Silent Bob, are called upon by Metatron, an angel who is the Voice of God, to stop two angels who were cast out of heaven from completing a mission. The mission of the two angels, Bartleby and Loki, is to return to heaven by restoring their souls by entering a new church in New Jersey. Restoring a person’s soul by entering a new church is a part of the Catholic Dogma, and by doing this, the angels could reenter heaven and show that there is a loophole to return to heaven. This would prove that God was not perfect and upon proving this, all of God's work would immediately be erased. Throughout the film, the “good guys” end up fighting off a demon, Azrael, and his three assistants. Finally, Bartleby and Loki


I suppose that the film could be seen as a realistic portrayal of some of the people that practice Catholicism, but not all. For example, it is possible that a Cardinal of a church could try to begin an extreme campaign to bring Catholicism into the mainstream, but for the most part, most Cardinals will stick to the old, traditional beliefs. For the most part though, I thought the portrayal wasn’t too off-base.

There was definitely some license taken for the sake of the comedic story for entertainment’s sake. The producers mostly exaggerated the idea of the angels, demons, and such, rather than the Catholic religion. Without the license that was taken, the movie would have been a lot more boring and dull to watch. Most of the entertainment that I got from the film was based on the fact that it was so off the wall compare
