congregation from a chant of "Seek! Hail!" into "Sieg heil!"? A touch this bold might well appeal to the same executives who evidently regarded "The Blues Brothers" and "Where the Buffalo Roam" as the iconoclastic berries.” Peter Ackroyd of The Spectator described the film as "an agreeable, under-stated little comedy which, like all such affairs, runs out of steam before the close." John M. Whalen in a revisionist review defended the film: “It’s hard to believe how critics back in 1980 dismissed “In God We Trust” as a total failure… The movie deserved a better reception.” Film critic Kathy Fennessy remarked of the film's Blu-ray release: “When approaching Marty Feldman's religious satire four decades after the fact, it's hard to understand why the film didn't meet with a more positive reception.” References External links 1980 films 1980 comedy films Films critical of Christianity and Christians Films directed by Marty Feldman Religious comedy films 1980s English-language films Films shot in San Diego
