Overrated and overhyped

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I give Christian films a hard time! When i first was introduced to this film i thought..Christian..Rom-com are you sure?! When i sat down to watch this my expectations were very low, however after the first 5 minutes i was pleasantly surprised. The production was well put together, good lighting, good camera composition. The story line was typical to that of a Rom-Com, boy meets girl, boy looses girl, they end up getting better together! But that's the beauty of Rom-Coms, it sells millions for a reason. The dialogue was above expected, the performances from the actors was pretty good. It was entertaining and watchable. They followed the story structure which works well in film. There was some nice moments and it delivered. I would recommend.See my video review on this film and other Christian films on my finalcallproductions YouTube channel.Jermaine Wong

It is easy to see that this is a very low budget film that comes with some of the faults that low budget films have. If you can accept that and watch it with an open mind, you will enjoy it.The story is predictable and the bad boy isn't really that bad, but this is a Christian film.Acting is excellent and it was refreshing to see a movie that is about human relationships instead of the formulamatic nonsense that you see in most movies these days.

Ignore the low ratings of the meta-score; they simply show the Christian intolerance that is alive and well in Hollywood. I am part of the Christian community, so I see every Christian movie that comes out. I look forward to them and even though this genre seems to be stalled in its adolescence, even in their awkwardness I find them uplifting and reflective. This film is the best of this genre that I have seen, hands down. The movie portrays a former child star, as a washed up adult, who gets into trouble often enough that he has a choice of doing community service at a church, or spend time in jail. He ends up washing floors in a church and stumbles into the lead role for an Easter play at the church. Longing for his past celebrity adulation, he has to overcome his arrogance and ego to function in the play. It is a rocky road he follows.Brett Dalton and Anjelah Johnson-Reyes are impressive as the two lead roles. Their performance seems heartfelt but not overdone. Dalton, frankly, was amazing. The supporting characters all carried their weight. The plot was a bit predictable, but that did not detract from the story at all. Don't miss it, even non-believers should make their way to this one.
