|  | "...a brilliant day all round" |  |
Steve Meyers has got some really awful luck. He is a retired attorney in Australia and he has decided to cash in all his money to live a happy peaceful life upon his boat. Unfortunately his boat is destroyed in a strong thunder storm. He figures, no problem I'll talk to my insurance fella and get this cleared up. If you ever had your insurance claim denied you will relate when he is told that it was an act of God. So he decides to sue God to recoup his losses. To sue God, you sue his trusty earthly servants, the only way that they can win the case is to prove that God doesn't exist? There is a very uncomfortable problem.
The movie does not make fun of the church or God. His real beef is with insurnace companies using God as a loophole. It's clever, and witty. Judy Davis is great as Anna, and Billy Connolly is always a good time. Is this the best ever legal movie, no. It doesn't claim to be either, it's fun, watch with a light heart.
October 3, 2008 |  | Connolly is brilliant, as usual. |  |
This is another example of the great work that Billy Connolly is capable of. I highly recomend this.
September 9, 2008 |  | A painful, inept film - the film makers should be sued! |  |
"The Man Who Sued God" is a one-joke Australian film - and the joke isn't all that funny. A man (Billy Connolly) sues you-know-who for an Act of God and much non-merriment ensues. Ineptness in every department (acting, script, direction) do this one in. Judy Davis must have been absolutely desperate. Somebody should be sued for foisting this on the public.

I am a fan of Billy Connelly and was delighted to buy this DVD. It was funny and irreverent. The language is a bit on the "adult" side at times but then I bought it for me not the kids.
August 29, 2008Have the film since released and extremely pleased with service and presentation of product. Will keep using service.
