FEATURED REVIEWS FOR An Act of God

Even ‘God’ hates Donald Trump
8 / 10

What if God was one of us? Occasionally characters say something so right that you can't help but nod in complete agreement. The line's so in sync with what's inside your head that you're convinced your brain's been plugged into a la 'The Matrix.'

Review: ‘An Act of God’ Is Back, With Sean Hayes
8 / 10

Technically speaking, Mr. Hayes is not portraying God. In his boundless mystery, God has chosen to come before us in the guise of Mr. Hayes. 'For lo, I have endowed him with a winning, likable personality and know of a certainty that your apprehension of my depthless profundities will by aided by his offbeat charm,' as God-in-the-person-of-Mr.-Hayes says. God later adds, 'He has no idea he's here.' The Almighty is not wrong about Mr. Hayes's appeal. (How could an all-knowing being be wrong?) Just as Mr. Parsons made for an endearingly cuddly deity, so does Mr. Hayes. He almost looks like a grown-up cherub - albeit one who's been on the Atkins Diet - and he channels the same fresh-faced boyishness and impish zest that made the character Jack a constantscene-stealer on 'Will and Grace.'
