Dogma (1999) ***1/2

I've been both revisiting and first-time watching Kevin Smith's filmography in the last several months. His "sacrilegious," "profane" religious satire Dogma (1999) holds up about the same as his other most-beloved works for me—meaning sometimes I find him too clever for his own good, sometimes his dialogue is really great, and sometimes his staging, action, pacing, and editing are pretty average. All of that applies to Dogma, which caused the most controversy of his career (even leading to death threats), but I still have a soft spot of sorts for the director and this film.
