Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

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

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

district544 Not a terrible movie. Catching Faith presented a positive message of owning up to your choices in life, even if they are hard. It also taught the lesson of being okay with the life you lead. The issue I had with the movie was in the film making process. There were a huge amount of continuity errors, especially during the football games. Beaus friend is QB the entire game, until 40 seconds left in the championship game and all of the sudden him and Beau just disappear from the field. I get that you shot a lot of B roll but make sure the same number is on the field. Also they show a close up of the centers hand a few times with a glove on and then when they zoom out, he has no glove. Simply attention to detail and maybe a few better actors would have gone miles.

dkc-87765 Catching Faith is a movie that should be enjoyed with your family if you're trying to watch a spiritual football movie. Directed by John K.D. Graham and also written by Graham and Alexandria Doyle. The stars of this movie are the Taylor family who are Alexa played by Lorena York, Beau played by Garret Weston, Ravyn played by Bethany Johnson and John Taylor played by Dariush Moslemi. The Taylors are kind of the "Perfect Family" they have the somewhat wealthy parents with the genius for a daughter and the star football star for a son. The son Beau and his team were having a good season and after a win he went out to a party with his friends. His family went out for ice cream and then Alexa got a call from her mother he she said that her father had gotten a heart attack. They went to go pick up Beau but when they see him at the house he was getting dropped off by the cops. His problems were put to the side because their grandpa died of his heart attack. The family was heartbroken but had to move on. After her father's death Alexa went to this group which was like a type of bible study with a group of 5 women that spoke about their troubles. The big problem that was still in the air was Beau getting in trouble with the cops and drinking. His parents made him turn himself in but the town was upset because he was going to be the one to bring them a championship. Eventually after the backlash of Beau and his teammates and fans being upset about him not playing he was able to move on from the situation and things got better. He was eventually able to come back on the team and help them win again. The main scenes in this movie are the different lessons that are being taught. Things such as God always being there to help you when you are in need of assistance. Knowing that God is there is hard to comprehend but eventually that were able to understand and push through. My personal opinion this movie was an 8/10 it gave a good storyline and gave many references to God which is what I like the most. My only issue with the film was it wasn't many football scenes in the movie but overall was still a good movie. But I was able to get through the movie being able to say that I learned something very important. If you are looking for an action packed movie with a lot of drama and all that stuff this is not the movie for you. But if you looking for a great storyline with some spiritual moments within the movie then this is the movie for you. I would recommend that people would show this movie at church or at a bible study to show to let it interpret the message that God is real and he is there to help.

bensfiction I'm not a Christian, but I can understand that a good part of this country is. I think that Christians, however, are doing themselves a disservice with this recent rash of films they've made. Hear me out on this. The filmmakers seem to have one thing in common: none of them have studied film. The cinematography is flat, the editing is filled with jump cuts, and the dialogue seems contrived and unnatural. It seems to me that if the filmmakers would put a little more time into their work they could actually pull off something pretty awesome and a little further reaching. Unfortunately, the films seem to be shot on a shoe-string budget with only the interest of the movie studios making money off of a certain demographic. I'm OK if you're Christian, but you should still have discernibility in your tastes of film. These films are flimsy and don't hold.

movieweasel-43562 I love indie films! "Catching Faith" might be a faith-based spiritual movie, but don't let the catchy title fool you. It has a relevant message for everyone of any faith or belief system. What is most important to you? We are all the same in this world with daily temptations, doubts, and fears that can change your future forever, depending upon your integrity and what you decide to do. The well-written story gives us so many compelling examples of choices we all face and the consequences of our actions. Without throwing in any spoilers, I empathized and fell in love with this family and their friends as they grew in so many ways.I loved the setting of this movie because it was shot in northwestern Wisconsin, showcasing the small-town beauty of not only the communities that make up the "Chippewa Valley" area, but also the lovely people. It is amazing to learn of so many talented locals being used in this professional production, and then seeing every single person listed in the credits! "Catching Faith" is a feel-good family movie shot in what I consider a gorgeous all-American setting. I hope this indie movie gets a wide release, as it has a wide appeal!
