Don't get it wrong

It is true there are a lot of negative things to be said about this film, but it was also very well done for what they had to work with. Yes, maybe some of the actors weren't the best and maybe it was a little corny, but aren't we all? Yes, the main character makes some very immoral decisions, but if anyone knew anything about any kind of plot it is that the purpose of conflicts like these are to see how the character resolves them. No one is perfect and this film shows how we can repent after a mistake. If anyone thinks the point of the film was to show how immoral this girl is, they are wrong. The message is what matters for this film.

Nice try and that's all...

We saw this film hoping that its technical problems would not be so noticable because the story would draw us in. We did not enjoy this movie at all. A few amusing moments, but nothing more. Some scenes, inparticular the scene with the mother and daughter in the kitchen were very poorly staged. It seemed like a bad rehearsal that was stuck into the movie. I'm sure it won't be so bad on video, but definitely not a movie to see on the big screen. Who wants to see a close up on a face that is over-lit and out of focus on a fifty foot screen? Ryan Little's efforts as the DP in The Singles Ward was much more rewarding. Mormon movies can be good, but this one wasn't.

Out of 701 People one "person" didn't like it!

I saw "Out of Step" in a large theater with about 700 people. (Trolley Corners in SLC) From the reaction I was seeing, I can't believe everyone didn't like it. (They must have been the one or two people who posted the negative comments for their review) Even some of my closest LDS and non-LDS friends saw the movie, and they thought it was really good.especially the music in the film. Even the Salt Lake Tribune gave it 3 stars out of 4. (Not bad for the local non-LDS newspaper)

I guess if re-runs of "Leave it to Beaver" are your favorite "shows" to watch, then you better not go see this film.

I thought this movie could have had two titles. "Out of Step" or "I Almost Married a Mormon"

This movie has a great message for people of any religious of group. The only thing that stinks about this movie is that it's not out on DVD yet!

Great Movie!

There needs to be more movies like this one. We need to have positive experiences put to film which leave us with a sense of well being. The American public does not want a constant barrage of hardness. There should be an alternative. This movie is a refreshing change and one that I enjoyed very much.

Out of Step is Out of Place

I saw Out of Step with my family this weekend (mainly because I know the lead actress). All I can say is that this movie makes The Singles Ward look like Academy Award Winner material. The lines were so bad and full of cliches that I think someone in a high school TV Productions class could do better. The acting was pretty weak and the editing and cinematography was probably done by someone who has never taken a film class.

I hated this movie in so many ways. I want to scream just thinking about it. Please please if we must make movies about Mormon culture, let them at least be watchable.

Anecdotes
Jenny's dance double, who performs in one of the opening scenes, was three months pregnant at the time of filming. She didn't happen to mention it to the director until after the shoot.

When Jenny drops her purse, David helps her by picking up five items that she left behind. In the next shot David only gives her one item.

Keisha: They've got screwed up beliefs.
Jenny Thomas: Oh Keisha.
Keisha: Oh, I'm sorry, do you have friends out there? But I studied up on it, it's a cult. They don't believe in grace, they don't believe in the true Jesus -
Jenny Thomas: Did you know I'm Mormon?
Keisha: [Embarrassed] I feel stupid now. I didn't mean to be so harsh. But Jenny do you really believe all that stuff?
Jenny Thomas: Yeah I do.
Keisha: You need to step back and take a look at this.
Jenny Thomas: Wait, a minute ago we were talking about protecting other people's faiths and now it seems you're trying to tearing down mine, do you see what a double standard that is?
Keisha: My goal is to help people and Jenny, Jesus is the only way to heaven.
Jenny Thomas: I believe that.
Keisha: Well from what I read you don't.
Jenny Thomas: Well I think I know what I believe and don't.
Keisha: We'll just have to agree or disagree about this, but thanks for coming Jenny.
