Yeah, I heard Mormon cinema is famous for being way more chill than it's Protestant or Catholic counterparts and for being far more open to making fun of or even criticizing their own religion. Oh and a lot more creative, too. I remember Diamanda Hagan reviewing one called "Pirates of the Great Salt Lake" that I really need to watch someday as it looks fascinating, being a comedy, yet also something of an allegory for the struggles of gay people in the Mormon community. While also being about pirates.
For a second there I was tempted to ask if you were drunk when writing this, then I remembered Diamanda's show. Yup, sounds like something right up her ally. Also, wouldn't you just love to see another crossover between her and Snob? Their 'Myra Breckinridge' review was stellar.
@ CSharp The Little World of Don Camillo is Catholic, which means one of the best movies of all time is Catholic, it's also not really judgemental about the opposition. That being said the English translation is a bit inferior when compared to the original or some of the other translations.
As an italian, I want to say that the whole thing about us being loud and prone to argue about everything is just a stereotype... but my family was screaming and throwing plates just last launch :p
My Italian family had the cops called on us because we were having a loud dinner. They thought we were all in a fist fight. We were just eating and disagree, that's all.
Half of it has to do with the fact that it's mixed with the working class New York, New Jersey area the dialect and mannerisms. because the most famous Mobsters (who happened to be Italian) operated/operating out of the New York area.
I grew up in Utah. There are actually churches on every block. The Mormon Church by my house was where all the skaters hung out. Also sometimes dudes would get bjs and school fights would happen.
I'm not from Utah (or from America, for that matter) and what surprised me is that Mormons are still the outright majority of the population of Utah. I thought they would be a small religious minority of 5 or 10% at most, but no, they're something like 60% of the population.
It’s a sad state of affairs when I see the title and think, “is this a pureflix movie comparing mobsters to Mormons?” I don’t know why that would be a thing, But it says a lot about the religious films that get the snob treatment.
I completely thought the same thing except in my head it was going to be about mobsters and Mormons secretly working together to perpetrate some kind of crime or like Mormons being complicit with the mob in some kind of fraud or ponzi scheme situation. Which i guess is still comparing them, so nevermind. I guess I just meant to say me too.
A movie also though not only about that, that's still worth watching since it's one of the best movies of all time is "Little World of Don Camillo". Though if you are interested and happen to speak any major Westeuropean language besides english, you should go with that version since they all are superior to the English translation (preferably Italien of course, but I guess nobody really speaks that outside of Italy, I know that the French and German version are also good but more or less suffer the same problem, I'd suggest the Spanish translation but don't actually know it's quality).
Hey Brad, as one of the (assumingly) few LDS fans that keeps up with your shows as they come out I'd like to thank you. You handled this episode surprisingly well. Makes me happy to keep current with your material. Thank you Snob!
Not exactly; the Church had recently made requests as to how the Church itself is referred to, not necessarily the membership. Saying that these people are "Mormons" is (if I remember correctly) A-OK.
It's so refreshing to find a religious film that doesn't act like their religion is the only right religion. Just a nice film about people being good to others and loving their neighbors.
And what's most shocking about it is that it also made me legitimately _laugh_ at times. For example, I actually chuckled when Beans sprinted over at one of his neighbors trying to help him unpack his moving truck and just violently punched him in the face. I mean, it makes sense in context, but I still found it kinda funny.
I'll say this about the Mormons, they have much more of a sense of humor than Evangelical filmmakers. And that granola joke actually got me to snicker.
Aw Brad you shouldn't have! This is one of my favorite comedies. I'm glad Brad finds this refreshing compared to all the other films he's spotlighted. In fact this movie has the same message as Jesus Bro: just be a good person. I'm Mormom and I find this hilarious to watch. I'm glad others do too.
Im from utah and grew up catholic. Im suprised how much of this was pretty accurate x"D except one thing is that Mormons tend to be all nice and welcoming if YOU are also mormon and if you live in a white neighborhood. I live in the more hispanic/tongan/samoan area. The catholic church part is half true x"D if you go to the white church (or more PC the english chruch) than yea its never filled. Like most is 30-40 people. Sometimes less. If you go the the spanish church than its always filled. My church has mass saturday and sunday. Sunday church sometimes becomes so filled the doors are open because theres not enough room. But yea a lot of this was on the nose. It didnt show the dark side of the mormon church but i can only say what ive heard from my mormon friends. But again this treatment is usually twoards othet members. To the rest of us its just whatever. You meet nice people and you meet assholes.
While as far as I'm concerned, bobody will go to hell, it's certainly one of the few movies not made by hypocrites (the others being the 2 Carman movies reviewed here). And if Hell exist the hypocrites certainly do have a place reserved if I remember my Bible right.
I love this movie. All the over the top "OHs" he gives crack me up. I know the guy best as the voice of Jimmy Neutron's dad. This was a great review. It's fair and unbiased while making fun of what needs to be made fun of. Just like south park. Would love to see more LDS movie reviews. There's an entire library of material. If you want to cry your eyes out I would recommend watching 17 miracles. Also that larger hitman at the end, I met him in real life and he's super chill.
Guess what this movie has in common with "Zootopia?" They're both movies about not listening to stereotypes & accepting people as they are that somehow, without ANY irony at all, includes the most offensive Italian mobster stereotypes. I'm gonna go watch My Cousin Vinny on repeat now. At least it won't scream about "an offer I can't refuse" while using one hand to turn on an opera record and using the other to shovel spaghetti-pizza into it's mouth. Jesus.
The feature films for families aren't outright lds and don't really push lds or Christian values. They're not really the same as pure flix or halestorm.
They actually rip off the god father earlier in the movie too.when he's talking about the three little pigs he uses sunnys line when he's talking to Michael about killing the cop
12:43 THANK YOU! I have never seen anyone get so psychotic over food preferences as people who dislike pineapple on pizza. It’s like the The Last Jedi of food!
Wait, Halestorm makes movies, too? Huh... never would've taken 'em for Mormons, but alright. Their music's pretty heckin' sweet though, gotta say. Get some sleep, Brad :o
Apparently formed by two film students at BYU, but they're boring. Both of them have normal spellings for their first names (I was curious and googled it).
I live in Utah, and Scott Christopher came into the restaurant I work at. Booooy does he think he's the shit. He refused to even speak to me (I was literally just trying to take his order) and wouldn't look at me. His wife kept scoffing at me and trying to block my view of him cause you know, I totally am gonna make a scene about it, right? We also offer small free ice creams to all people who come in, and when I offered them some they acted like I was giving them special treatment. Their son looked sooo embarrassed, and thanked me for the ice cream very politely. I literally wasn't going to say anything to him, even though I recognized him (my family is Mormon and they watch these movies, so I've seen him), because I honestly don't care that much about him. But he thinks he's going to be mobbed by rabid fans everywhere he goes, apparently. His wife does all the talking for him while he hides behind her like a shy toddler. Great guy.
*Cinema Snob* @15:23 That wasn't the first Godfather referrence, that earlier scene where Beans was telling the wolf killing story and he says "Bada-bing, he blew its brains all over his nice ivy league suit" was straight from Sonny's reaction to Michael offering to kill McClusky and Sollozzo. :)
Judging by the title of this movie, I would've assumed this was a feature length "South Park" episode. I've seen reviews of all these "Christian-sploitation" movies (in particular the ones from "Pure Flicks"), but I never heard of a Mormon-sploitation movie before. Great episode, can't wait to see what's in store for this year's "Musical March in September".
Mobsters and Mormons is not as strange as you might think. Back when the mob ran Vegas they often hired Mormon accountants. Mormons were seen as honest dependable and most importantly loyal. Howard Hughes had a lot of Mormon accounts as well. In fact back in the day in Vegas a Mormon accountant was as iconic as a Scottish engineer in the Royal navy .
FBI: So, why exactly do they call you 'Beans'? Beans: Screw you fed, like I'd tell you they call me that 'cause I'm always spilling the beans or can't keep a secret. You must be crazy. My lips are as secure as one of them submarine screen doors I keep hearing about.
"You don't put pineapple on pizza!", well I guess now that my bro's roommate is not the only person that does not think that the two don't go together.
To be fair, pineapple and ham on pizza is a niche enough topping thing that if you're going to get it and you have someone over whose tastes you don't know, it really would be polite of you to get the toppings on only one half, and leave the other half plain.
I've watched this review a few times, and i have to say i love it. When i saw that you were reviewing a Mormon movie i figured you would be as brutal with it as any other film, and rightfully so. However despite some teasing I was happy to hear that you saw it as something far nicer than those other religious films. I know that religious groups lately haven't been representing themselves very well, so i was glad to see a movie made about members of my own faith to be a good representation of Christian Values. And if you feel like reviewing any other the other Hailstorm films in the future, that would be awesome :)
A weird side effect of binging Cinema Snob religious film reviews is that all your ads will be for religious entertainment(i.e. Pureflix, CloudTen Pictures, Big Idea Entertainment LLC).
Can witness protection movies/tv shows be counted as their own sub-genre (or some other category) now, or are there not enough for them to be a distinct classification?
Wait a minute. The main character starts off in the process of going to kill and dispose of a guy, then constantly tells everyone in the community he moves to that he basically kills people and chops up their bodies, quite openly, and they still all love him and accept him... What, is the sequel going to have Satanists move in and eat a baby at a BBQ and the Mormons just hand them napkins?

Kaefer1973 Thanks. I just looked it up on IMDb and read some reviews. People seem to really like it.
@ CSharp
No problem I'm always happy promoting one of my favourite movies.
As an italian, I want to say that the whole thing about us being loud and prone to argue about everything is just a stereotype... but my family was screaming and throwing plates just last launch :p
italians are a...passionate people.
My Italian family had the cops called on us because we were having a loud dinner. They thought we were all in a fist fight. We were just eating and disagree, that's all.
I’m Italian and my husband keeps saying I talk too loud.
I was going to say that the hand gestures seemed kind of affected and exaggerated, but... look, sometimes stereotypes have a grain of truth lol.
Half of it has to do with the fact that it's mixed with the working class New York, New Jersey area the dialect and mannerisms. because the most famous Mobsters (who happened to be Italian) operated/operating out of the New York area.
I grew up in Utah. There are actually churches on every block. The Mormon Church by my house was where all the skaters hung out. Also sometimes dudes would get bjs and school fights would happen.

Which i guess is still comparing them, so nevermind. I guess I just meant to say me too.
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a Mormon. Wait that’s not right.
Katie Baily Hahaha!
We woulda been great Mormons!
I find it truly ironic that this is the first religous themed movie i've ever seen that was just about people being nice to each other.
A movie also though not only about that, that's still worth watching since it's one of the best movies of all time is "Little World of Don Camillo". Though if you are interested and happen to speak any major Westeuropean language besides english, you should go with that version since they all are superior to the English translation (preferably Italien of course, but I guess nobody really speaks that outside of Italy, I know that the French and German version are also good but more or less suffer the same problem, I'd suggest the Spanish translation but don't actually know it's quality).
I thought Orgazmo was the first one
Hey Brad, as one of the (assumingly) few LDS fans that keeps up with your shows as they come out I'd like to thank you. You handled this episode surprisingly well. Makes me happy to keep current with your material. Thank you Snob!
Mormons are so nice that even the writers of South Park can't bring themselves to be too hard on them.
At first I thought the title was Mobsters and Morons.
Well...
Stefan Sharak 😂 i thought it said lobsters and morons
well. I first thought the title was Monsters and Mormons.
Thanks for pointing that out; I still thought it was that title before reading the comments!
I would watch a movie called that no matter how stupid. I am totally down
Snob, they would now prefer that you call this movie "Mobsters and Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints"
That's actually a really poor taste joke.
I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I find this movie offensive.
I don get it.
@@diggerfan9319 good you should, this movie is a p.o s.
Not exactly; the Church had recently made requests as to how the Church itself is referred to, not necessarily the membership. Saying that these people are "Mormons" is (if I remember correctly) A-OK.
Mobsters and Mormons would be weirder if it was a dating site a la Christian Mingle
Sounds like it's be more comedic
Would Creationist Cat make an account on that site?
Yeah, well, they have multiple wives. Not exactly smart.
It's so refreshing to find a religious film that doesn't act like their religion is the only right religion. Just a nice film about people being good to others and loving their neighbors.
Mormons are weird like that. They're just... Nice.
I know right
The film is not offensively bad, just bland and boring.
And what's most shocking about it is that it also made me legitimately _laugh_ at times. For example, I actually chuckled when Beans sprinted over at one of his neighbors trying to help him unpack his moving truck and just violently punched him in the face. I mean, it makes sense in context, but I still found it kinda funny.
And also about the good of the witness protection program. I think. XD
For those that don't know, the girl that plays piano in high school musical is also in this movie
Mobsters and religious people? What is this, a film about Congress and the White House?
Haha glad I'm not the only one that saw "Mobsters and Morons" as the title!
That was a pretty harmless religious film, something I never thought I would say in my life.
Never would’ve thought a movie with this title would be so wholesome and relatively decent.
I'll say this about the Mormons, they have much more of a sense of humor than Evangelical filmmakers.
And that granola joke actually got me to snicker.
"Laughter-Day Saints"? HAHA HA HA HA. . .
. . .What? I'm tired, too.
Aw Brad you shouldn't have! This is one of my favorite comedies.

The underwear return the suit joke is pretty funny.
Will you review "Meet the Feebles" to tie in the release of "The Happytime Murders"???
YES YES YES AND YES! I WANT TO SEE THIS!
Why would you want to associate a terrible, unfunny failure of a movie with a classic like "Meet the Feebles"?
Both are R Rated Puppet Movies... plus feebles is a cult classic, brad is good for those!
"Leave the gun. Take the granola."
Did... Did I just laugh? At a religious movie?
Are Mormons just better filmmakers than Christians?
Yes
Mormons know their comedy.
Yes. Yes we are.
You do realize Mormons ARE Christians, right? lol
Not really
This one is one of the better comedies
Ironically, this is one of the only religious movies on this show that isn't made by a filmmaker going to Hell.
While as far as I'm concerned, bobody will go to hell, it's certainly one of the few movies not made by hypocrites (the others being the 2 Carman movies reviewed here). And if Hell exist the hypocrites certainly do have a place reserved if I remember my Bible right.
I lost it with the "I told you, we shot the wolf in the head". Great review :D
OHH MUY GOOD!!! that one guys name is Nathan and he was my teacher in high school. East Hollywood high. I shit my pants
I love this movie. All the over the top "OHs" he gives crack me up. I know the guy best as the voice of Jimmy Neutron's dad.

I always thought Napoleon Dynamite was a Mormon movie that somehow got mainstream attention.
Hipster Elephant That was a decent film. However, The Sasquash Gang (made by the same people) was godawful!
If only mormons were this nice irl too. You know, without all the hate and shunning they do when someone leaves the church.
if Carmine converted to mormonism he would start the Kolob Mob
Do you think the Ku Klux Klan would go after Mormons?
Why don’t you ask them? Storm front is a thing.
I don't know

There weren't any Italians in Zootopia. Just shrews.
@@theAngryscotman ah, bravo! fantastico!

Ah great. Now I have to say it.
Alec Berrrrrrrrrrrrg! Mistah Berrrrrrrrrrg!
omg I had that same thought the moment he mentioned Seinfeld... xD
The Buttercream Gang movies were made by Mormons. Doesn't that count?
Nah. They're not overtly Mormon, so it doesn't count.
The feature films for families aren't outright lds and don't really push lds or Christian values. They're not really the same as pure flix or halestorm.
Wait, there was more than one?
Two. the second one partly ripped off Indiana Jones.
They actually rip off the god father earlier in the movie too.when he's talking about the three little pigs he uses sunnys line when he's talking to Michael about killing the cop
Daniel Boger Ah, you caight that "Bada-bing..." Li e too? I nust commented the same thing. I should've known somone beat me to it :)
That's an homage, not a rip off. Learn the difference.
Any chance of you spotlighting "KISS meets the Phanom of the Park" one of these Septembers?
Also, I admire your work ethic.
This is a comment from the future. Your wish has come true.

Not enough D
Isn’t Carmine the name of Zorak’s little throat brain when he gets the handsome man voice on Brak?

Apparently formed by two film students at BYU, but they're boring. Both of them have normal spellings for their first names (I was curious and googled it).
Man that car explosion was fucking epic. A pretty damn good-looking piece of special effects and editing for such a low-budget film.
How did I miss this episode? So good
Thought the title said " Monsters and Morons" and I was like, Oh! A movie about Hollywood already?
I live in Utah, and Scott Christopher came into the restaurant I work at. Booooy does he think he's the shit. He refused to even speak to me (I was literally just trying to take his order) and wouldn't look at me. His wife kept scoffing at me and trying to block my view of him cause you know, I totally am gonna make a scene about it, right?

But he thinks he's going to be mobbed by rabid fans everywhere he goes, apparently. His wife does all the talking for him while he hides behind her like a shy toddler. Great guy.
That's like thinking you're famous because you're in local TV ads. They do realise almost no one watches these movies, don't they?
Apparently, they don't. I've met actual famous people who are way nicer.
*Cinema Snob* @15:23 That wasn't the first Godfather referrence, that earlier scene where Beans was telling the wolf killing story and he says "Bada-bing, he blew its brains all over his nice ivy league suit" was straight from Sonny's reaction to Michael offering to kill McClusky and Sollozzo. :)
Speaking as a Mormon, this is the most tolerable Mormon movie out there.
I just love it when you find a way to fit in the "Will it fit" guy into your reviews.
How was there not one single My Blue Heaven reference in this entire review? Anyway, fun review Snob, I love when you do a movie I never expect.
I can't remember legitimately laughing so much at the jokes in the movie Brad's reviewing.
This review gives me the warm, religiously-tolerant fuzzies.
Never seen anything mormon related unless Matt Stone and Trey Parker are involved
did you see Mitt Romney?
Judging by the title of this movie, I would've assumed this was a feature length "South Park" episode. I've seen reviews of all these "Christian-sploitation" movies (in particular the ones from "Pure Flicks"), but I never heard of a Mormon-sploitation movie before. Great episode, can't wait to see what's in store for this year's "Musical March in September".
You wanna see what happens when mobsters meet Mormons, Jimbo?
"This whole movie makes me want mayonnaise." -- I may start saying this and letting people figure out what I mean.
Confession: "More like the Church of 'Laughter' Day Saints!" was a line that made me laugh until I choked.
The "I'm TIRED!" Had me laughing hard.
I’m probably a lot more psyched than I should be about Musical March (In September).
4:08 did not age well
Every congregation has a Helen Lovejoy :D

You mean it's possible to have a kind of heart felt movie about religion that isn't hateful and skewed beyond belief?
My reality is shattered.
Yes! Brad has finally gotten to Provowood movies! I grew having to watch these movies...
Yessss I was hoping you'd do this one!
“People these days, they got no appreciation for the penal experience”
"You don't put pineapple on pizza!", well I guess now that my bro's roommate is not the only person that does not think that the two don't go together.
Can totally relate at time stamp 5:30, also just got back from that same con.
Worth it though because Snob was there ;)
Oh shit. That line at the very end was funny. "There used to be an alter boy, but he left for college"
To be fair, pineapple and ham on pizza is a niche enough topping thing that if you're going to get it and you have someone over whose tastes you don't know, it really would be polite of you to get the toppings on only one half, and leave the other half plain.
Looks like Brad is gonna get bushwhacked in the thumbnail
*sees title card*
Is this a porn episode?
So there's Hollywood, Bollywood, and now uh SLCwood no thats not right. Is anyone else in the mood for jello?
Only if it's green.
Let's call it Cedarwood, since there's a Cedar City, Utah
Shot in glorious God Vision. Simple angles, basic framing, no demonic artistic styling. Just like the Lord and Savior wanted.
Finally the review I’ve been waiting for.
LOL now I can't stop thinking about that Seinfeld episode ... thanks Snob! xD
The title sounds like the weirdest tabletop RPG ever.
There's actually a large catholic population in utah. I'm sure they're happy to be represented by empty pews.
Rule of Funny
To be fair, it could have been worse.
But it was a joke......
Well this was surprisingly wholesome.
@7:18 Nice shoes, man who I'm supposed to believe is a mobster. They look like uggs with a Native American twist.
I've watched this review a few times, and i have to say i love it.

Now, let’s all hope that this week’s review doesn’t get taken down.
15:28 They already referenced The Godfather at 9:28...
Can witness protection movies/tv shows be counted as their own sub-genre (or some other category) now, or are there not enough for them to be a distinct classification?
Omg i need a gif or meme of him saying the" Aces os Bases, young mc and pull up your coulattes" line. Lolol
Didn't Steve Martin already do this in My Blue Heaven?
@ 9:00. Why "Antonio, Giuseppe, and Fredo" when "Michael, Sonny and Fredo" is right there? A rare miss.
Wait a minute. The main character starts off in the process of going to kill and dispose of a guy, then constantly tells everyone in the community he moves to that he basically kills people and chops up their bodies, quite openly, and they still all love him and accept him... What, is the sequel going to have Satanists move in and eat a baby at a BBQ and the Mormons just hand them napkins?
I'd say you're getting carried away, but since I'm late commenting, you're probably long gone already
1:45 Alec Berg is a nice John Houseman name
Cheeseman? Like the guy Rose's boyfriend was hiding from in Golden girls?! It all makes sense now.
During the storytime with the children, he referenced The Godfather when killing the Big Bad Wolf.
"He rats on the current bishop and has to live with a family of baptists, this cycle never ends!"
