There is a healthy release to be had in this address of our shared, so-often-facile Hallmark-card reverence. Humor can be the best weapon after all.

Silverman fails at what she does not because she says dirty things, but because that's all she says, and she's not very good at it.

Silverman's raunchy pretend comedy act can't sustain its energy and humor.

A montagem é caótica e as seqüências extra-palco são, em sua maioria, fraquíssimas. Ainda assim, a forma aparentemente inocente com que Silverman interpreta seu texto politicamente incorreto compensam estas falhas.

Here, in her own vehicle, Silverman veers from the faux-naive mockery of minorities into an oncoming collision with white liberal guilt and condescension . . . stand-up [that] makes you sit and think.

Whether you think it's awesome or awful, there's no denying that 'Jesus is Magic' is sheer Silverman, a portrait of the artist as a young maniac.

Silverman is clearly in the line of such fearless comedy forebears as Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor. As she says at the end of this mostly hilarious movie, 'I don't care if you think I'm racist. I just want you to think I'm thin.'

... her jokes ... are often obliteratingly funny in themselves, they are compounded and deepened by the disconnect between the blackness of their substance and the pretty mouth that utters them

If 'Jesus is Magic then God is, without a doubt, a Woman: Sarah Silverman.

(Silverman) finds what's funny about an uncomfortable situation, then plunges past the point of good taste to end on shocking instead of entertaining.

Jesus Is Magic is full-scale offensive; don't say you weren't warned.

She's like a child who's discovered that adults can be disturbed by dirty words and runs through her repertoire at Mommy's cocktail party.

Barely 70 minutes, but any more of her routine might drive audiences either to the showers or to church.

I wouldn't take my mother, but this stand-up movie is pretty funny.

As expected, whether you find any of this funny depends on your tolerance for outrageously and politically incorrect humor.

It's [Silverman's] hysterically wrongheaded standup persona, showcased in the one-woman show Jesus Is Magic, that's been twisting politically correct writers into descriptive knots.

Silverman comes across as a racist, callous diva in Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic.
