Best movie of this year hands down!

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I liked this movie. I had no idea that they had sub genre's in faith-based movies!!! I have yet to find a christian that wasnt filled with bad acting and even bad directing. It may have something to do with the fact that it's not easy to find rich people to fund something that's probably not going to be bringing in a whole lot of money. I've recently started watching them and I try to over look it as much as I can because it's always been a genre known for this issue. Even though Im a christian I'm a newbie and even I see the cheesiness and the overdoing of emotionals scenes. It God isnt your thing, I dont know why you'd watch.

Got off to a slow start and almost gave up watching. But wanted to see how story incorporated "faith based" into the plot and it was basically using the same tropes seen over and over. I wasn't sure if this was a traditional drama almost like the old "ABC Afterschool Specials" of the 70's. But then it dove into this tension- filled, suspenseful section that almost alluded to a supernatural element to the plot (trying to not give any spoilers). So was a bit confused. I think directors/producers wanted to go for a faith-based story with more meat to it but it falls short. Actors performances lacked depth and didn't rise above material. Some of the writing was trite and very "on the nose" - a screen writing no-no. BUT good points: well shot. Good cinematography and liked small town America location.

The acting in this film is terrible, but it is possible that the actors are doing their best with what has to be one of the worst scripts I have ever encountered. The hack who wrote this ought to be ashamed of themselves. Nobody in the film speaks like an actual human being, and it relies on a constant droning voice over narration which is hardly necessary and could be made entirely obsolete with the most minor of script adjustments. The only thing I can give the writer credit for is the fact that it was at least 15 minutes into the movie before it became abundantly clear that it was a soft sell Christian sermon disguised as a mystery.Of course it wasn't a very good mystery either. The only mystery was what the mystery actually was, as it danced around that issue for way too long. That failed to be intriguing at all, possibly due to the ridiculous narration and the constant suggestions that the answers might be found at church.Don't waste your time.

The film was recommended by Netflix as part of thriller Friday... not entirely sure why.The film gets off to a slow start and never really picks up and speed. It's starts with a random half story of the male lead which is loosely referee back to at points. All of a sudden it gets to the female lead with no introduction or back story.It's a very safe film and somehow they manage to solve a 12 year old missing person case when we all know from cold case about the hard evidence you need before you can make any arrests.It was all very miraculous, possibly aimed at Christian youth ministry movie nights, with plenty of moral story and no sign of ethnic minorities, no alcohol, swearing or even the faintest suggestion of sex.
