It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

I watched this movie based on the reviews I've seen here. Unfortunately, I am now completely convinced that my personal tastes are a literal light year and a fathom away from the tastes of other viewers.This movie was just painful. The story moves on at a torturous pace, and is filled with dialog that is funny at first, but gets old very quickly. The characters are absolutely just bizarre, and a few of them make no sense at all. The protagonist, Mr. Shepherd, has the intelligence of a "dumb and dumber" type hero, and much of the film centers around him describing the world from his point of view. In light of that, I highly suggest you remove your brain before watching. Perhaps leave it in a jar by your bed. You know, someplace you won't lose it, and won't feel guilty for not having it on you for the evening.Danny Trejo is as good as he can be with what he was given, but that's still no reason to put his face on the cover with a baseball bat. It's very misleading, because this movie is not about him.I'm rating this movie at a 5. It was not the worst movie I've ever seen and did have one or two good moments. The best parts are the over-generalizations of the TV evangelists who are used-car-salesman type preachers. Fun to watch, but still just a play on a stereotype. Not very original. Production value was quite good, it was only difficult to watch because of it's content, not because of it's plot cohesion or filming.All in all, I did not enjoy it. But to each their own, apparently some others did.

By far the worst movie I have ever seen and being a movie buff I have endured a lot of terrible movies. The main character seems incapable of showing any real emotions or having any coherent thought; with a different actor this movie could have actually taken off to be somewhat of a success. The supporting characters were good, and acted relatively well. Watching this movie felt more torturous than having to mow my lawn with scissors and cutting every single blade to the exact same length. Watch this movie at your own risk, you have been warned. This extra line is to make the minimum 10 lines to publish this review.

This film is sure to become the next great cult classic. It's the kind of movie you want to share with friends and watch over and over again. I haven't laughed that hard in a movie in a long time! If you've ever watched late night televangelists and laughed out loud, then this is the movie for you! But there's so much more to it than a simple satire of televangelism. I was surprised at the heartwarming story that made you come to love Pastor Sheperd! Wow!! What a great character! Pastor Sheperd is reminiscent of a classic SNL character, however I enjoyed this movie far more than any movie spawned from an SNL character I've ever seen! The comedic timing is brilliant! And then there's Danny Trejo, "the world's greatest bad-ass", playing the warm and friendly neighbor. How can you miss out on that! It was a pleasant surprise to watch a movie that was that funny and yet was so clean. It seems like comedies today are in a contest to see who can be the most vulgar. Movies like Pastor Sheperd and Napoleon Dynamite have proved that that isn't necessary. Its well cast, well written and perfectly executed!!

If you are looking for comedy with a hint of adventure and romance, you may find it all in Pastor Shepherd. This isn't a movie to make you suddenly laugh out loud, it's a movie that will make you quietly chuckle, then chuckle some more, and before you know it - you can't stop laughing as the scenes and characters take you along on the journey. An interesting story, intriguing characters, and funny actors are essential elements to the film. The talents and skills of the entire crew cumulate in a wildly witty and smart comedy. I was intrigued by the beautiful location background scenery from the Texas Hill country as a few strangely familiar scenes and characters reminded me of actual people, places and events that have flashed across the big screen of my very common life. This movie is worth a second viewing to catch the many subtle comedic innuendos.
