Hollywood leftist Rob Reiner is promoting his new movie that trashes Christian nationalism.
Reiner’s movie, called “God & Country,” attempts to convince the American people that Christian nationalism is “a danger to our country.”
The actor and director was met with an immediate backlash when he announced the new film on Twitter/X.
He shared the trailer for the movie, which “explores right-wing religious extremism and the danger it poses to both the United States and Christianity itself,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
“Christian Nationalism is not only a danger to our Country, it’s a danger to Christianity itself,” Reiner posted via X.
“Our film will be coming to theaters In February.
“Watch the trailer here.”

But critics viewed the film as proof that Reiner “doth protest too much.”
Many argue that the “documentary” was just a convenient excuse for him to attack both Christians and conservatives in one fell swoop.
“Is this like a funny Spinal Tap mockumentary?” The Babylon Bee’s Kyle Mann replied on X.
“If so it’s brilliant.”

Students For Life President Kristan Hawkins noted that one of the film’s “villains” was Scott Smith.
Smith is the Virginia father who was arrested for “disrupting” a school board meeting in Loudoun County.
The school had failed to address the sexual assault of his daughter on school property.
“Showing the arrest of the dad at that school board meeting because his daughter was sexually assaulted, as if *HE* is the bad guy, is a WILD narrative choice,” she posted.

In a follow-up post, Mann added:
“Avowed atheist Rob Reiner: ‘I’m looking for Christians to interview in my documentary slamming Christians.’
“David French, Phil Vischer, Russell Moore: ‘Say no more, fam.’”

“It’s hilarious to me how terrified Leftists are of normal Christians who dare to take their faith outside the walls of the church,” Joel Berry said.

The Federalist’s Sean Davis weighed in as well.
“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” Davis asked.
“Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
“The answer to the last question, at least for David French and Russell Moore, appears to be ‘a cameo in a Meatball fever dream masquerading as a documentary.’”
