Based on the hilarious and popular FunnyorDie.com web series, the film charts the rise and fall of America's worst Christian pop band! Pastor Jerry gets possibly awful medical news and is determined to reach his rebellious teen while he still can. Jerry forms Cross My Heart, a Christian band, to keep his son on a "righteous" path. He finds four young musicians with varying levels of talent and the first single Save The World! takes off on multiple (and some unexpected) radio formats. But the band starts to unravel!

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Man, I didn't think this movie was just ragging on Christians, at all. I grew up as a Christian and am still serious about my faith, and I loved this movie. It was hilarious! The humor didn't feel vitriolic or spiteful to me, at all. It reminded me of the way Napoleon Dynamite lampooned Junior High dorkdom - I don't think N.D.'s point was to trash middle schoolers; whenever I've heard people laugh about it, it's them seeing parts of themselves or their friends in it. Same with this movie - it reminded me of certain foibles of Evangelical Christianity, but I laughed affectionately, not mockingly. Maybe I'm off, perhaps the filmmakers really do despise Christians, but I'd really be surprised if that were the case. Just watch, laugh, and enjoy.Also, having lived in Nashville for a while… Yeah, they nailed it.

It is pathetic to see a movie (if you can call it that) have as it's sole purpose to ridicule and denigrate and misrepresent Christians.It is based on stereotypes. don't waste your time watching this garbage. check out Chris Mullins movie "Ragamuffin" instead. Why does Hollywood see the need to malign Christians time after time? What ever happened to the days when Hollywood would make movies that did not depict Christians in a negative light? Islam would never suffer from this type of stereotyping.Was this movie funny? not in the least.Who actually paid to have this made? There are scenes in the movie that depict Christians attending a concert and have their arms up as if they are just plain zombies.Go to a real Christian concert and you will see why people raise their arms .It is to praise God. Shame on the producers and actors who made this junk.
