This screenplay is the best that I have ever read. Kevin Smith does a masterful job of weaving religous fact and fiction into a story that's both funny and thought provoking. It is my opinion that "Dogma" is Kevin Smith's best work yet. The dialogue is great, and even though a lot of the more dense stuff ended up on the cutting room floor, it still didn't clutter up the screenplay at all. I wish that they would have kept Jay and Silent Bob singing the theme from "Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids" in though. Oh well, maybe in the special edition DVD. This is a great read for Kevin Smith fans, aspiring screenwriters, or just fans of movies in general. Hats off to Kevin Smith for writing one of the great screenplays of all time.
