Play the Flute

It is a very inspiring movie. Certainty as a Christian movie it presents good conservative moral values. The actors play a very strong and convincing role. Maybe the scenery and the script is simple but the message is strong and it reaches the heart and tha attention during the full movie. It would have been interesting that the stories narrated by the main character could be dramatized this would be for me the only lack in the movie. Very recommended for a reflection in these days of so squeeze moral values. A strong call for the relevance of speaking the truth and being trustworthy. Bible is also enhanced as the trustful word of God.

Spider Man faded - I cried. They shot Ole Yellow - I cried End of Toy Story - I didn't cry Generally, I rate a movie experience by the impact it has on me emotionally. Some make me mad that I wasted my time (Caddy Shack 2), others leave me pumped up and ready to take on the world (Braveheart). I movie that can bring me to tears is a 10. Let me just say that the crisis in this movie is all too real. It speaks to every person. Whether you are a Christian or not you will find this movie thought provoking, entertaining and you may even catch yourself wiping away a few tears as you identify with one or more of the well developed characters.

What a beautiful movie!

I am left with this teaching, from minute 24:28 that tells his students, not to let money lead the way, and it reminded me of St. Augustine's phrase: "Right is right even if no one does it, wrong is wrong even if everyone does it".

Elegance has nothing to do with sophistication or extravagance, but with refinement and simplicity: "Less is more". Refined has nothing to do with what we think it is, it's just something of beautiful simplicity, uplifting to the spirit. I like films that are relaxed and unpretentious, and this one achieves that. I liked its costumes, makeup and locations, I felt good watching it. I am not a Christian, I have my own spiritual beliefs, but I have a lot of respect for these brothers and all the work they do. I have consumed throughout my life a lot of Christian cinema, from movies from the 70s, 80s and 90s. And I started watching them again about 5 years ago, I have seen that Christian cinema has become very good and worth watching. Hallie, Miracle Maker, The letter writer, Charly, 2002, etc. They have become elegant in their films and refined in their messages. This movie made me cry and you empathize with all the characters. Very good.

Play the Flute is less intending to entertain as challenge the viewer. It is well written, well paced and well developed. In general the main character is designed to be modeled rather than be relatable, but the everyday struggles faced by the teenagers are where the relatability can be found. I, as a general rule prefer that strong, selfless lead character (ex Captain America) over the troubled, relatable heroes that find redemption in their own strength (ex Iron Man), because such redemption is based on a lie. God is glorified through Play the Flute first and foremost, and it is refreshing to find people investing in movies that have more of a purpose than to make a quick buck. I highly recommend this movie for teens and adults and caution for younger kids based on the content of the films main conflict. It was handled very tastefully but inquisitive young minds will likely be asking questions trying to delve into conversations you may not have wanted to discuss yet.

I wish I could buy this movie! Hopefully that will be an option sometime in the future. I would give it 15 stars if i could. I watched it several nights ago at a nearby church & I was blown away! It is so awesome! I havent seen a movie that touched me like this one did, in decades. My hat is off to all involved! I would say more, but I don't want to give anything away. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience! In a world that has become so full of darkness, this was a fantastic glimpse of God's grace that so many people need to find. Thank you Jesus! 🙏
