We Still Say Grace

While the 2020 movie "We Still Say Grace" from writers and directors Brad Helmink and John Rauschelbach was a watchable movie and entertaining enough for what it was, it just wasn't an outstanding movie. Now, don't get me wrong here, because "We Still Say Grace" wasn't a bad movie, but it just turned out to be another run-of-the-mill religious fanatic movie that has been seen and done before.

But it should be said that "We Still Say Grace" is definitely worth sitting down to watch. But at the same time, it should also be said that the movie is the type of movie you watch once and never again, as the movie just doesn't have the contents to support more than a single viewing.

The storyline in "We Still Say Grace" is pretty straight forward, and actually well enough written, but it was just a tad too generic and given the fact that the movie didn't really offer anything in terms of plot twists and surprises, it made for a rather linear experience.

There were some fairly toe-curling and cringeworthy scenes throughout the course of the movie. Not because they were scary or anything, but because they were just so morally wrong and kudos to the writers for managing to pull that off.

The acting in the movie was good, and I must say that Bruce Davison really dominated the movie with his performance. He is actually a rather diverse and talented actor, and his performance in "We Still Say Grace" alone makes it worth watching the movie.

Ultimately "We Still Say Grace" is a movie that didn't leave much of a lasting impression on me. The movie came and went without much of a noticeable mentioning. My rating of this 2020 thriller lands on a mediocre five out of ten stars.

Strong acting, interesting storyline and suspenseful. The movie held my attention throughout. It felt real, like it just might actually be possible.

The only downside is that it's a story that's been told before. But to be honest , this version is one of the better ones. Definitely recommended.

It's as though there were two different production companies with two separate crews, one team working to make a decent horror film, the other intent on making a cheesy one. It was like watching a pair of Siamese twins fight each other for 90 minutes. The story was decent, Bruce Davison and Holly Taylor are great, just about everything else was schlock. Okay, Bruce Davison was awesome. I think the current 5.4 is a good rating.

Decent acting, but just another religious fanatic raising his family in isolation so he can play God and lord it over them. Had a few creepy twists, but I just really could NOT suspend my disbelief with the actions of the characters who arrive and the ignorance of the females. My eyes kept rolling up in my skull. That tub scene just made me wanna HURL!!

I don't know what others were expecting, but this is a solid movie with excellent acting by all of the cast and a story that keeps you interested.

Well worth watching.
