Not Another Church Movie

This is a 0 rating.

I've seen better movies on Tubi - no shade! There is no way that this "spoof" should have made it through a review process to even be on the big screen. Bad acting even from known vet actors/actresses. Flat punchlines! This movie could have clearly been on YouTube or not released at all. My family and I decided to leave after about 30 ish minutes. Literally nothing funny. We headed straight to customer service for a refund and was provided free passes on the next visit. I take accountability because I should have watched the trailers and read reviews because this was a major FLOP. Whoever created the movie must like to waste money.

Humour is subjective, yes, but this movie was so unfunny that I couldn't be bothered to sit trough all of it. I stopped watching around the 30 minute mark during some kind of picnic scene, after a guy caught on fire and more terrible jokes. I watched this because I felt in the mood for spoof/comedy movies, and Not Another Church Movie killed it. I do not know what is going on in the background, apparently this parody was made to spite another director because he had fired a writer for not being funny enough. If said writer is behind this movie, I'm siding with the director that didn't find him funny. I recognized the character that played God and I have to wonder why would he sign up for this, he's a really famous person that was in Spider-Man movies, has he fallen off?

We all seen em, we may have even laughed because of the jokes in em...but the world has to realize, that the majority of the Madea movies are some of the worst things to happen to cinema since the old blacksploitation films of he 1960s and 1970s.

But thye are supposed to be comedy, so the irony i that its supposed to be ok when a movie is low brow, low quality, and just overall low class. That being said...This "church" movie, though occasionally funny at ties...paled in comparison to the Madea stuff.

But again, ti reiterate...they are basically the same. This film simply uses PURE parody to tell it like it is, and point out all the nonsense in Tyler Perry's films. And its not the first film to try to do so, because clearly there are tons of people out there that either never liked the films, liked them at one point but began to hate them, liked some of them but hated the rest, or whatever...

End of the day, we need parody when a big film series gets too big for its britches. This was maybe a 4/10 at best, which, though a low rating...is sill close to the average 5.5/10 rating for the BETTER Madea films. Lol Honestly dont get how Tyler Perry became so successful with selling his soul lol.

I've seen Founder's Day. I've seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3. I've seen Mea Culpa. I've even seen Thankskilling 3. All of those movies are masterpieces of cinema compared to the incoherent train wreck that is Not Another Church Movie. This movie is chock full of atrocious direction, editing, and writing in this 90 minute dumpster fire with nary a laugh to be had. Jamie Foxx clearly shot his scenes in a day, Mickey Rourke shot his horribly rendered green screen scenes in probably an hour, and everyone else in the movie just downright stinks. 45 minutes in, I literally had no idea what was going on with the characters and plot lines. It's just a series of random scenes, non-sequiters, and general nonsense. Even the worst Tyler Perry movie is better than this dreck. Hands down, the worst movie of the decade so far, and it's not even close. I have no idea how this made it to cinemas.

I just don't know what to say. It's just.....so bad! Some of the actors sounded like they were reading. I definitely understood what it was SUPPOSED to be, but, it wasn't giving at all. I went to sleep the first night I tried to watch, and struggled through, the next. When it came out, and it was for rent, something told me to just wait.... I'm glad I did. I tried my best to support, and if you are looking for something to just pass the time while you clean, or, for some background noise, this is the movie for you. I hope everyone who participated, were paid well, because i literally watched this movie with a straight face.
