Like, Chasing Amy, he commits to the drama and its damn fucking good.
Mallrats is goofball comedy, through and through. Love it.
Dogma tries to split the difference. I think its like, the underlying themes which kind of, take me out of the comedy of it all? Or maybe that it “feels” like its trying to say something deep about catholisism, redemption, identity, but the goofball comedy is kind of pausing the suspension of disbelief? And what the hell is it you are trying to say Kevin? What is the redeeming lesson the church is supposed to be offering me here? That they’ve got incoherent dogma?
