Let There Be Light

I've seen worse movies. That being said 'Let There Be Light' wasn't written by a theologian and probably won't win any awards, but it is coherent and has a positive message. In this particular film, an Atheist has a life changing experience and as a result becomes a believer in Jesus Christ. He becomes a changed person.

Why do American christians have to portray atheists as unhappy and lost? What absolute rubbish! We're happy, fulfilled, we live our lives to the fullest because we're only here once, we do good things and we help others regardless of their beliefs. We're also great parents, raising wonderful children to be amazing adults, but oh no...an American Christian movie always portrays an atheist parent as a bad parent. This movie makes an atheist look miserable. Garbage brainwashing or a pitiful attempt to validate their own religion, but it's pathetic to what lengths christians will go to in order to feel better about themselves. This movie and it's message is pumped up arrogance. Religion doesn't teach people to be decent. Everyone I know is kind, decent and caring for family and strangers, yet by the comments I see apparently christians believe we're not. Meanwhile, evangelists have one sex scandal after another. No wonder people find American christians annoying, such arrogance and ignorance about others.

Reading the negative reviews I almost skipped the movie when it popped up on Amazon Prime. But with Sorbo, who I enjoyed in other movies, I gave it a chance. Glad I did. Good story, good acting, and well produced. Yes, it is a movie about faith and overcoming, but more than that it's worth watching and quite enjoyable.

watching this maudlin, very predictable, tedious movie bored me. Absolutely no spoiler is necessary. As soon as I got hold of the main character (Kevin Sorbo,) I knew what was going to happen. The acting was sort of mixed mediocre with the children looking like "Hey, I'm acting!" I enjoy feel good movies but this was soap opera quality.

After watching this, I really am questioning Christianity. What a horrible show. Bad things happen, move on. Don't banter about it for almost 2 hours. The stereotype of the drunken atheist "bad person", who is reformed by Christianity is so over the top here it's unbelievable. Then to have sean hannity get involved, uugh, now I'm thinking Christians are the "bad guys". Glad it was only 1h 40 mins. Please stop making this junk.
