Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

grovetussen This movie was sold to me under false pretenses. I thought it was a romantic comedy, but it's just a religious promotional film. The characters and acting isn't all bad, but the story is weak at best.What I got out of this was: "We're Christians, we are good because of our faith in god, and everyone that don't believe in god are immoral, horrible people." As a person that believe in science and facts, and take fairy tales as what they are, fairy tales, this was a 1h45min waste of time for me. If they had toned down the Jesus part and focused more on romance and comedy, it would have been watchable, but as now, it's not, unless you're extremely religious, but then you don't need to watch it, since you have already bought into the propaganda.

pamcox I had never heard of this movie and happened upon it. I was strangely drawn to it and found it very sweet and endearing. I enjoyed the storyline and was moved by the fact that, although the characters are all different and at times argumentative, they learn to accept one another and their differences. As a Chrsitian, I enjoyed the fact that we can embrace our differences; we have the same common goal. I thought it was definitely watchable and hope to see it again and share it with others. It is very refreshing to see a movie written by a young man, that contains this sort of content. I also appreciated that he didn't write the characters to seem perfect, yet flawed as they are, they are lovable.

Slug-3 This is a real disappointment for a film with such a fine cast. Despite the attempt to promote religious tolerance, understanding and disapproval of religious pretentiousness, it still comes across as an attempt to promote Anglo-American Christianity by using skeptics, who are, of course, presented as somewhat immoral characters.The film seems to be promoting a message that says "It's okay to accept others who are different then you, but only as long as they're devout, Anglo-American Christians", which, I suppose, is okay if you want to show the film in an Anglo-American church, but besides being somewhat pretentious, it's also just a boring subject.If I could re-write the script, I would re-write it so that the point it makes is that Christians aren't good people because they're Christians, but rather that good people are Christians because they're good people. This point seems to get lost in this film.

bedfords I laughed and was inspired as I watched this sensitive portrayal of a complex relationship between Joey, a young Roman Catholic, and a born-again young lady named Mary. The central characters were complex, not the one-dimensional types often seen in this kind of story. (I am tired of seeing born-again Christians portrayed as either "holier-than-thou" or hypocrites.) Additional characters were somewhat zany and made this a really funny movie to watch. I especially enjoyed the contrast between the two families, although they were too stereotypical. The most appealing feature of the movie is the development of the dynamic relationship between Joey and Mary and also the growth of Joey's character. The script was written by Vincent Pagano, the actor who played Joey, and I would like to see more from him.
