Masterful Movie
... View MoreIt's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
... View MoreToo much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
... View MoreThis is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
... View MoreI think this is one of the most well made Christian films I've ever seen. The acting is really good, and the photography is beautiful. Overall it's well directed, well edited, and the music and musical performances are a real treat. If you're looking for an inspiring, entertaining movie that's edifying without being cheesy, this is one you should check out. In my opinion this film is a notch above most other faith-based movies. Personally, I'd like to see far more high-quality faith-based movies like this one be made.
... View MoreI do not usually do on-line reviews but just had to give one for this awesome film. Good Christian films and that have talented acting and a great story line are few and far between, but this film has both. It is the biblical story of David and Bathsheba and their son Solomon, yet is done with real people who struggle with real life problems that we can all relate to and still triumph in the end. I applaud Kyle Idelman for producing the film and the casting director who picked the right actors who could pull off the story line. The acting was very well done by all the actors involved in the project, even though I was not familiar with these actors and any of their other projects. While I am not a fan of country music I felt the music was also well done and touching. Ignore any negative reviews and see this great picture. There are so few movies made that touch your heart and leave you with a good feeling and have a good cast and great directing. Take a chance and see this film. You will not regret it!
... View MoreI hesitated to watch this movie since it was made by Samuel Goldwyn and not by a Christian Studio. However, to my surprise, I liked it! The main character and his wife are very happy until the husband falls for the oldest trick in the book (by no doubt a very pretty and unscrupulous female). If you don't have a babysitter for your children, please see IMDb's Parent's Guide for movie's cautions, to see if this film is safe for your child to see. The movie is about a Singer, so expect some singing; about six or more partial (not full length) songs. The romance is when the main character and his wife go on a date or two and get married (the wedding night consists of one kiss, in a medium to almost dark bedroom) No sex is seen or heard. No Nudity (I don't count a man without a shirt as nudity). A Drama film with a few intense scenes and a very wise message to whoever gets this movie. We did.
... View MoreRaw, real, & romantic. A must see. Best film with a musical soul of the decade. Cineamatography is beautifully executed. Acting is well done. Masterful storytellung. A movie that promises to be a benchmark and set a new standard for faith based films. This one will disturb the co fortsble and comfort the disturbed. The music was like a character in the film. The musical performances were well polished and professional. Grapples real temptations of life on the road while giving an example of redemption and hope. The film is the sexy, sleek, and unsanitized. Many chrisitans may bash the film while secular audiences may likely flock to support the film. The secual chemistry between the lead actors is palatable enough to strike terror in legalistic church goers while peaking interest in the souls that have strayed from the faith. It's siren call may just be a lighthouse on the shore for those looking for a lifeline for love.
