This is a good film, maybe even a very good film. Very entertaining if you 'get it'- the script is a cartoon. If you take the story too seriously, you will find much to object to here- mainly the warped vigilante sense of justice, which admittedly is way over-the top ( the movie was condemned by the Catholic church). The comedic elements are deftly executed- in the hands of a lesser director the attempts at humor would have fallen flat; the overall effect would have been ridiculous but here they work very well- it is a razors edge between being funny and not funny that was navigated excellently. 7.4 stars.
