Rust

I wasn't expecting much when I saw the IMDB rating, but I like Corbin as an actor, so I gave it a try.

I was pleasantly surprised!

You know where the plot is heading throughout much of the movie, but it keeps you glued to the television nine the less. It is a believable, inspiring and emotional flick that will leave you asking, "where am I at in my journey?" This would be a great movie for a church youth group or family night if you have teens or preteens. I'm still asking myself how this movie has been out for 13 years, yet I've never seen or heard of it.

I highly recommend this movie for anyone struggling with their purpose; strong in their faith; or unbelievers looking for a good family movie!

What a wonderful movie. A real down to earth story. The actors added so much to the story. My dad was born on a farm, so it brought fond memories back to me. I love that the story was about faith in God without being all gussie.. People need to have more of it. I hope more people watch RUST. I didn't know Corbin could write too. Anyone of any faith should watch it. It will warm your heart. Thank you, Corbin and Amazon for making available.

I have a few films in my collection that i will always recommend to people to watch. This is one to be added to that list. The film is a wonderful tonic in todays rat race. The setting is nicely different and the characters are great. It has the feel of viewing a home movie in it's intimacy. The film deals with a Preachers loss of faith and a community struggling with a house fire which killed a family and a local idiot who was guilty of arson. No film is that simple and the beauty of this film is in the inter-twining of the stories. A local back water, non-glamorous, ordinary town and an ordinary Preacher with his troubles lead to a cracking alternative to the dross coming out of California. Sit back, relax and turn the phone off. It will be worth it.

I must say this movie was a pleasant surprise and the film makers really cheated themselves by not releasing this to theatres. With all the recent success of faith based movies like Fireproof, Courageous, and The Grace Card, this movie has better acting than a lot of mainstream Christian movies today. Corbin Bernsen is the kind of actor who has relegated himself to doing low budget, straight to DVD movies, in fact the last major movie in a theatre he was in was Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. In the movie, he plays a minister who has lost his faith and returns to his hometown. There is a mystery here involving a house fire and his once good friend who has now been committed to a psych ward. Lloyd Warner stands out as Travis, the once good friend of Bernsen's character. Throughout the film, I found myself wanting to know the back story behind the two characters and exactly why they both seem to have ended up on opposite sides of life. Everything is shown to us and it's done very well. There is no profanity in this movie, but there are some other themes which in my opinion should have up the movie's rating to a PG-13 based on the elements of suicide, depression, and violence. Either way I recommend this film to anyone and would allow my kids to watch it as well.

In a world of fake reality TV and impossible movie plots, this movie surprises with absolute reality. This must be the reason for its only slightly above mid score. While there is a place for unrealistic entertainment, you will not find it in this movie. What you will find is an absolutely astounding and realistic story. The acting is surprisingly good while not going overboard or being amateurish. After recently seeing "The Shack", I would rate this movie higher. I am truly surprised this movie didn't make more of an impact. It's not full of suspense, but there's enough to keep you watching. The last 15 minuets are outstanding. If you have teens, this is an ideal family movie. They may be a little bored with the movie, but the lessons learned at the end are well worth the wait.
