José Cristo

About This Movie

José Cristo is this quirky 2018 comedy that dives into the absurdity of evasion and belief. The main character, JC, is this slacker type, super relatable in his laziness. He stumbles into creating a cult as a dodge from the draft, which leads to some hilariously chaotic moments. The pacing has a nice flow, never drags, just enough absurdity to keep you chuckling but also some surprising depth about faith and manipulation. There's a rawness in the performances, especially from the lead, that feels genuine. Practical effects? Nothing over-the-top, just enough to ground the humor in reality. A real oddball flick that stands out, not just for its premise but for how it reflects on our sometimes skewed sense of purpose.
