Saturday's Warrior

A Christian ambush piece that nobody's gonna see but other evangelical Christians--well almost nobody. I stuck it out for 30 minutes but I couldn't keep my jaw closed, so I bolted. The "actors" must have gone to some retro golden age of 30's era faux overacting school. Yes, "freedom is knowing who you are", but what does that have to do with this? Just the opposite. No way this is a 7.9 without ballot stuffing. Oh, and the music is probably why so many people think of heaven as hell. 0/10 The bot is telling me I don't have enough lines but what can you say when if you say anything more it would be like piling on. When the horse lies dead in the street, how shall the oats pass through for the sparrows. Keep kicking it I guess. There.

I went to see this movie last night not having seen the original production. If the original was anywhere near as enjoyable as this version I am sad that I have been missing out. Kenny Holland is truly a great up and coming actor that will surely be a star. The piano solo during the end credits was so moving and passionate. This movie made me laugh with some very well timed and placed comical scenes and it made me cry more than once (don't tell my wife). Nothing but possative things to say about this great production and I look forward to seeing Kenny rise into more outstanding roles through his career. The entire cast really have out done themselves with a great story for all to enjoy.

Even with the technical errors seen on the music dubbing and some minor overacting in places, this was a heartwarming, funny, emotional, entertaining movie with a great positive story line that makes you feel good at the end! The music was absolutely beautiful and done so well with such talented actors and actresses. Overall, it was very worth seeing, and I would definitely see again. In fact, next time will be with my family members. These are the kinds of movies that leave you feeling so good, and we need more of them these days. The original stage version from many years ago was good, but this screen version was an added enjoyment. I was very pleased.

It must be a technical challenge to get it right, but the bad dubbing/lip- syncing made this movie uncomfortable. I wanted to like it, but that soon changed to wanting to pull my eye balls out (and just listen.) That is why the original was better.

I cannot figure out why other posters liked the performance of Jimmy/Kenny Holland. I thought he was awkward and flat. On the other hand, Julie/Monica Moore Smith was poised and engaging!

The new plot was great and the acting good overall. It is still a little goofy which is OK. The emotions of the story are real and save this film. Go see it but just brace yourself against the technical issues.

I watched Saturdays Warrior for the first time last night. Kenny Holland was outstanding in his acting and singing performance. This film actually made me laugh, cry, and feel so many other emotions. The entire cast did a great job and I will definitely see this movie again. My wife and kids also loved this film and want to see it again as soon as possible. Thank you to the entire cast and crew for making my family movie night a wonderful experience that my kids will cherish and remember throughout their lives. I hope that more people get to experience and share how wonderful this production of Saturdays Warrior really is. I realize this is an LDS based film but even non LDS viewers will enjoy what this film has to offer. Please share this movie with anyone you care about so the story can be told and told the right way.
