The Inheritance

So Many Factors go into being a Critic .but but one that is Paramount is being able to Divorce Yourself from the subject matter and be objective .but human beings are not objective ,let's face it . And a lot of times just say an actor did a bad job acting just because the critic doesn't agree with the actors political beliefs . And if the makers of the movie have political ideals that are negative ,that energy will spill over onto the audience and the critics . I have yet to see an objective review of a movie quite frankly . I have seen enough of the political experience that I know critics and Movie Makers are like are too affected by it to be truly reliable critics . Based on that, read at your own risk . First of all, these days , there are a thousand versions of the Bible so-called . Many of them are designed to not offend people . So first of all if you're going to make a movie, you're probably being paid just to express your opinion ,so you might as well be honest ,and the respect level just might be raised a little .you should not care what anyone thinks while you're making your movie .your movie is made for whoever it's made for and not for others who do not feel they agree with your politics .there's a movie for everyone . You really can feel that the makers of this movie have political beliefs that Clash what's the idea of Love Thy Neighbor . You feel that's a casting director and the head of the making of this movie would never allow for a certain relationship dynamic between whatever characters these actors played , simply because they hired the actors that they hired . And that hate energy does take away from this movie . A lot of energy except from this movie because of that hate Factor and the incessant need to reinterpret the Bible to appease themselves . The only thing that may draw you to this movie is the box office appeal of the actors , which is why they are photographed on the front of the Marquee . It is quite the traitorous thing to hire actors now you subliminally have a problem with .

Like virtually every faith-based film, this one is heavy-handed on message, and poorly written. The plot takes four disparate siblings back to their childhood-home to scatter their mother's ashes and learn of their inheritance. But the mother---being the kook that she evidently was---doesn't make it easy. Instead, she designs a bible-based scavenger hunt to force her children to unite while they search for the will. Sound promising? It is---but weak story lines, redundant bible verse, banal language, and slow pacing, bury it.

The film's redemption is delivered in the casting; Jaleel White (Mr. Shepard,) Cameron Kelly (Kasey Stryker,) and Mychala Lee (Emily,) take us from laughter to tears and remind us what it means to be part of a family. It's impossible to watch the dynamic between Kasey, Emily and Rachel---(played by Mena Suvari)---and not recognize our own family ties.

Despite the fatal writing flaws, I give this movie nine stars because of the cast, and because I'm a fan of the genre. Faith-based films are safe for the entire family, and rich in messages that we can all use---especially these days. If only they could include decent writing.

Sounds like a good movie right? Wrong! It's basically a lifetime movie with the guise of a Bible thumper. Very subpar acting all around from the whole cast. Writing was horrendous. The camerawork even has early punch outs and punch ins, atleast the reflections in the mirrors don't show the crew. The movie is loaded with bible verses especially ones that don't even go along with the plot. I couldn't even tell you a character name from the movie because they were so forgettable. It has the Indiana Jones loophole. If the family didn't show up at all nothing would have changed.

The plot is kind of fun, but the acting and script is so SO bad. Really. Awful. Offensively bad.

I say this as a Christian, but this film could have been ok without the religious angle. The sheer volume of Bible verses flung at the audience is overwhelming, particularly when they don't make any sense in the context. There was honestly nothing positive about this film.

It started off as comically weird, graduated to uncomfortable weird, then annoyingly weird and then became fully laughable ridiculous. I stuck it out for as long as I could, but realised not only was it bad, I just didn't care about the characters of what happened to them...
