Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown give fully committed performances in “Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.,” so why does the film so lack faith in itself?
If the title doesn't grab your attention, the film's two co-stars should. The always great (and in this case perfectly cast) Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown play a megachurch power couple in this weekend's "Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul." It marks the directorial debut for Adamma Ebo who gives us a biting and often hilarious critique of pseudo-Christianity and megachurch corruption. It's a snarky satire that uses a mockumentary style to lambaste the lavish self-serving absurdity at the heart of these rackets.
