	SPLICEDwire: "Holy Man" review
		I walked out on "Holy Man," the new Eddie Murphy movie in which he plays a vaguely spiritual apostle who becomes the product-hocking hit of a TV shopping network.
		"Holy Man" is lifeless to the point of inducing narcolepsy.
		It didn't, and in all of "Holy Man" (well, in the hour I saw) not one scene has even an inkling of energy, spirit or laughs.

	Hexapedia - Priest (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab1.cs.virginia.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A priest or priestess is a holy man or woman who takes an officiating role in worship of any religion, with the distinguishing characteristic of offering sacrifices.
		Celibacy is not required of priests in the Orthodox, Anglican or Episcopalian Churches, but Orthodox priests are not allowed to marry after their ordinations, for example if their wife dies.
		The most significant liturgical acts reserved to priests are the administration of the Sacraments, including the celebration of the Mass (see also Eucharist), Holy Baptism and the Sacrament of Reconciliation, a rite of Repentance, also called "Confession".

	Holy Man Movie Review by Anthony Leong
		Instead, "Holy Man" is a poignant feel-good tale about a man allowing himself to be ruled by his heart, instead of his head.
		Which, of course, brings him to the inevitable dilemma of choosing between what is best for his career, and what is best for his new friend, G. As I mentioned earlier, "Holy Man" starts off as one movie, and ends up being a better one.
		Finally, what is perhaps the greatest problem with "Holy Man"-- as a comedy, it is not very funny.

	"Holy Man" / a review from Christian Spotlight on the Movies
		Holy Man contains some profanity; however, I found this film to be an interesting reflection of the world's changing value system.
		...."Holy Man" simply espouses the New Age Religion, and it wraps that religion in humor, happiness, and help for all your troubles.
		The New Age religion is portrayed as a panecea for all of your woes.

	Cranky Critic® Movie Reviews: Holy Man
		In the case of Holy Man, Murphy also demonstrates the ability to work and play well with others, in this case with Jeff Goldblum, who is the real star of the movie and delivers a performance as close to broad comedy as anything Cranky can remember of Goldblum's career.
		It isn't that the man can't play big (he's held his ground with dinosaurs, fer cryin' out loud) it's just that the basic character we've seen him build roles on usually has a very dry (some would call it totally oblivious) humor.
		Murphy so underplays this role as a "holy man on a journey" (to only God knows where) that he is merely the enabler of a number of situations that are funny as individual gags.

	The Snake and the Holy Man - Andre Heuer
		And the power of the holy man caused the snake to crawl to the path and to the feet of the holy man.
		The snake was subdued by this unusual response and was overpowered by the gentleness of the holy man...
		There are multiple practical applications of The Snake and the Holy Man. I have primarily explored the issues of violence, dealing with difficult people and situations, and assertiveness.

	'Holy Man'
		Funny, no. The best thing I can report about "Holy Man" is that it is a warm-hearted and kind of cute love story that reminds us that people who need people are the luckiest people in the world.
		It's obvious what the greeting-card simplistic "Holy Man" is trying to say, but it's less clear what it's trying to be.
		At this point, "Holy Man" seems as if it wants to imitate "Network" or "The Truman Show" and say something about consumerism as religion or television as ersatz reality, but its satiric bite is toothless and random, nipping hither and yon at modern society but drawing no blood.

		Sure, there are plenty of laughs, yet "Holy Man" is a comedy of substance.
		He's great in "Holy Man." Ricky Hayman is a character that fits him well.
		Murphy, with his shaved head and joyous, good nature, is wonderful as G. When G is walking down a highway median and is hit by a cup full of soda, you believe Murphy when he thanks the culprits for not throwing a can.

	Buddhist Tales: Vol. 2 - The Phoney Holy Man (Hypocrisy)
		Once upon a time there was a man who looked and acted just like a holy man. He wore nothing but rags, had long matted hair, and relied on a little village to support him.
		He thought this holy man with matted hair was sincere and good, one who would not do anything unwholesome.
		But holy ones who have given up the world are not supposed to become too attached to one village or supporter.

		To those who know Hinduism's holy men to be unworldly sages and ascetics, this may seem a bit strange.
		This industrialist holy man has been truly industrious - for the villagers living near his ashram, he has provided running water and improved public hygiene facilities.

		Holy Man is touted as a comedic vehicle for the cinematically challenged Eddie Murphy.
		Holy Man, now out on video, is the story of a man (Eddie Murphy) on his own personal pilgrimage who interrupts his journey to help a slick sales executive (Jeff Goldblum)currently experiencing a downslide in his career with a home shopping network.
		Goldblum reprises his neurotic performances of the past, but is allowed, in Holy Man, to move and grow with this roll.

		Some would argue that the holy man wearing a saffron robe in Elephanta does not accurately describe Ramdas in that he was invariably dressed in white.
		The holy man suggested that it might be beneficial for my mentor to seek out the same teacher, which in fact my mentor did.
		Third, he HAD to meet that specific holy man (Ramdas) in the temple at Madura so he could be sent to see the Maharshi inorder that his Enlightenment would transpire.

		Holy Man could have been a stellar satire in the tradition of Frank Capra, George Stevens, or Preston Sturges.
		Their good intentions shine through, however, and while it's easy to appreciate Eddie Murphy's attempt to shift his career in a more substantial direction, Holy Man delivers some pointed criticism of commercialism and its deadening effect on spiritual well-being.
		To its credit, Holy Man occasionally achieves a delicate balance of comedy and commentary, and receptive viewers will be grateful, at a time when crude comedies rule the box office, that someone bothered to try.

	Holy Man . Memphis Flyer . 10-19-98
		His appearance in Holy Man (performance seems an inaccurate word choice) strongly suggests that this outing was a sort of breather in his busy shooting schedule, a leisurely walk to the bank.
		Like most of Holy Man’s shallow concepts and anemically developed ideas of Holy Man, the character of G is a fuzzy platitude, little more than TV sitcom fodder.
		Ricky’s eye is uncritically focused on the medium and oblivious to the message, the sensations of his brief attention span fueled by ratings and ten-minute segments, his values determined by expedience and the bottom-line.

		``Holy Man'' is a love story about two people with no apparent chemistry, whose lives are changed by a stranger who remains an uninteresting enigma.
		He quickly becomes a superstar salesman and gets his own show, inevitably named ``The G Spot.'' Stephen Herek, the director of ``Holy Man,'' and editor Trudy Ship fall into a tiresome editing pattern in showing ``G'' on the air.
		``You are wasting your time,'' the holy man tells her, ``because there are just too many starfish.'' The girl holds up the starfish she is holding.

	Holy Man. A Hollywood Jesus Visual Film Review.
		Anonymous- I was pleasantly surprised by Holy Man. When I saw an Eddie murphy movie rated PG, I was shocked.
		I am not a man of religion,but have sold all of my material things and put the money to good benefits.If today's society would stop concentrating on "getting, getting, getting" and start giving to those who really need it, we could strive for not a Utopia, but a better world, if nothing else.
		I honestly thought that "Holy Man" was one of the worst films of the year.

	HOLY MAN
		EDDIE MURPHY plays a happy, generous and charismatic man whose spiritual pilgrimage is temporarily interrupted by his meeting Ricky and Kate.
		A lightweight, but enjoyable enough diversion, "Holy Man" offers some decent laughs and occasional touching moments, but isn't the laugh-fest most are probably expecting after seeing the film's promotional commercials.
		While one can't fault the film for not living up to its advertising campaign (different creative entities usually handle the two), it's certainly not as funny as it should be or could have been given the premise.

		Without ever once leaving his hill The Heavy Holy Man has sampled fast food from all over western Europe: Wimpyburgers from London, Wonderburgers from Dublin, And his favorite, Hitburgers from Paris, Which he ate whenever he had some free time.
		This particular day, however, The Heavy Holy Man travelled to Amsterdam, To Febo's, Where he put one and a half guilders in the slot, Opened the little door, And pulled out his Feboburger and Febonapkin, All without ever leaving the hill.

	The Place of Holy Relics in the Orthodox Church
		The holiness of the Saints does not hold forth only in their souls, but it necessarily extends to their bodies; so it is that both the body and the soul of a saint are sanctified.
		Thus, by the touch of the holy relics of the Prophet Elisea, a dead man was resurrected.
		Saint Damascene, summarizing the life-giving teaching of Holy Scripture and Holy Tradition concerning the pious veneration of holy relics, preaches in a Cherubic manner from the altar of his God-bearing and Christ-like soul: "The Saints have become according to grace that which the Lord Christ is according to nature.

	CAP Report MAR02098, HOLY MAN (1998)
		Holy Man received a CAP final score right square inside the range of scores earned by PG movies between 1995 and 1996.
		Holy Man was still a PG movie in every sense with the usual dumping of ignominy on that which is proper and wholesome.
		As required of the Holy Scriptures, unless God's name is used with reverence to His glory and praise, its use is considered in vain, whether literal or euphemistic.

		Instead of crafting a creative cross-section full of parodies and hilarious scenarios, "Holy Man"'s screenwriter Tom Shuman wrestles and deflates the raw talents of the film's powerhouse cast.

		Otherwise, "Holy Man" offers minimal mindless humor in exchange for two hours of your time.

		To be a working man between visits to his daughter is not heavy dues.

		Ah, but G has made a connection with the audience, and before you know it, Hayman is re-hired, G is on the air once again, and the network's sales shoot through the roof as people tune in to listen and buy from their new home-shopping televangelist...

		Unfortunately, Holy Man is neither, and for the most part it definitely does not work.

	Chapter 2 Holy Man, Hoax or Fiend
		From Quarles’ perspective, Turner was not a practical man; he did not know how to prepare for an "insurrection." Waiting for a "sign from on high" was not how a reasonable leader should have directed his energies.
		Gross and Bender, from a literary point of view, stood hardly in awe that Turner raised himself up from the pits of hell that was slavery against great opposition to a pinnacle of renown and a measure of respect for his Christian manhood.
		Was he insurrectionist, revolutionary, fiend, or holy man? To respond adequately to this question, we must follow his development in its religious context.
