Lord of the Beans

[The Only Real Estel]

Then of course there was the sickly sweet moralizing. I expected it, seeing as how VeggieTales is designed largely to be a Christian alternative to secular cartoons, and each episode is all about the Lesson, but that didn't make me enjoy it. For a parody of a story whose author stressed how he didn't want it to be a straight allegory or moralizing tale, Lord of the Beans hits the audience over the head with the Lessons well and often.

Surely you're not insinuating that finding a good use for your gift is "Christian."

All in all an interesting review to read. I thought the first half hour or so of the movie was funny (well, maybe 'humorous' is a better word for it) but the more it forges off on its own story plot the less worth watching it got...
