In conclusion, The Book of Clarence offers enough worthwhile content to make it a must-see, but it falters at times, preventing it from achieving classic status. Unfortunately, the conclusion takes a deep and serious turn, causing a drastic mood shift that dulls the movie and leaves the ending feeling flat. The inclusion of an '80s/'90s retro dance sequence adds to the enjoyment. Memorable scenes like the "get out" and "virgin" conversations, slap scenes, and baptism provide comedic gold. The comedic elements are brilliant, reminiscent of a biblical Half Baked. The authentic attire and settings, along with stellar performances from the cast, contribute to the film's charm. This movie has a fantastic premise and a captivating start, especially in the first three quarters. Directed by Jeymes Samuel (The Harder They Fall), the film stars LaKeith Stanfield (Knives Out), RJ Cyler (White Boy Rick), Alfre Woodard (12 Years a Slave), James McAvoy (Split), Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), and Teyana Taylor (A Thousand and One). The storyline follows two weed dealers in Jerusalem during the time of Christ, facing financial hardships and attempting to become apostles or create their own Messiah to solve their problems.
