What would Jesus buy? An excellent thought provoking question that puts many of us in our place. The commercialism of Christmas has reached a new level and the film shows this effectively. The unbelievable stats and captured experiences of consumers show the viewer how it is and keep him or her contemplating. The footage was creatively inter-cut with graphic visuals that effectively contrasted Christmas in its nativity sense with Christmas as a buying fest. Although the message is there, the film lacks a strong journey for the viewer. The facts were there and I was able to see the holiday in a new perspective, but I didn't feel like I took the journey with the subjects of the movie. Many of the moments were repetitive and dull, but there were several entertaining comments and incidents.
