A very predictable Christian movie with bad acting but a good message. Not bad, but nothing to rush and see. I say C
Straight form Luke
The film is not as bad as some have reviewed it. Some pretty good acting from Drew Waters and Chad Halbrook. The rest of the characters, ok, acting is not their A-game. For once some believable sports performance from the actors and stand-ins, with sufficient direction to make it believable. The plot is never staid, but told almost religiously as recited in the New Testament, with a modern spin. Work in David and Goliath, Samson and Delilah, and you have a Christian movie working hard to provide some entertainment in a heavy-handed parable. A recommended film for the Christian family on a Saturday night, which will leave plenty of room for discussion afterward. For the rest, better a skip.
