Reel Film Reviews' Larry Charles also thought the film was "entertaining," but felt its "repetitive nature" made it "tough to take."Reel Film Reviews: Religulous Review (2008) In a SpoutBlog review, Karina Longworth did not care for Maher's method of "using serious questioning" to "ridicule" subjects to a point of "unenlightening mockery."SpoutBlog: Religulous Review (September 6, 2008)Possible Controversy
