Cinema and Religion

Film and religious entertainment media are promoting the emergence of new and innovative spiritual and religious phenomena in our modern (and past) culture.

Indeed, the 2013 Superman movie is one of modern superheroes and science fiction epic, proving interest and religious themes again for action movies.

Some writers acknowledge the quality of religious color movies despite ignoring it because there is no depth compared to "real" religion. In this approach, I do not take measurement evaluation of movies (or general pop culture) seriously. This book aims to solve this problem by developing a way to understand the religious function of the movie.
