I Still Believe

I am a huge fan of Britt Robertson - mainly as a result of her performance in Mr Church. In spite of my regard for her however, I was a little reluctant to see this movie, due to its association as a religious movie. In the end my regard for Britt won over and I took the plunge. I need not have been concerned as the religious content was very subtle and was perfectly within the context of the story. This is easily Britt Robertson's best performance to date and the way she interacted with K.J.Apa was remarkable. You could really feel the bond between them which by all accounts was genuine and it showed in the excellent performances from both of them. This is a very moving film and anyone who doesn't shed a tear of two could only be made of stone. Beautifully shot and directed and interlaced with some really nice music. Definitely one of the better movies of recent times and highly recommended. My seven star rating might seem a little low in view of my approval but I am a harsh judge and my rating is very much in line with IMdB's. I guess everyone is aware that the movie is based on actual events. I have no idea how accurately it depicts them but it would seem that it hasn't strayed too far from the truth.

I read all the reviews before seeing the movie without spoilers. I thought it was much better than I expected definitely much better than a "Lifetime Movie" that some reviewers compared it to. Some reviews gave it a low rating probably because the movie is Christian based. I felt it was not overbearing with Christianity but mostly telling the story about Jermy Camp. I never heard of him before the film. I would rate the movie a 7.5/10

Seeing this movie was my introduction to Jeremy Camp who I now know if a very successful singer and songwriter. Originally from Lafayette, Indiana, at 18 he took a bus to Southern California to attend a bible college. There he met a singer that would help transform his life, and a girl that would become his wife.

K.J. Apa, of Archie fame in the TV show "Riverdale", is a good choice to sing and play guitar in the lead role as Jeremy Camp. And equally good choice is Britt Robertson as Melissa. The story has its share of tragedy but overall is one of hope and redemption. Good movie.

My wife and I watched it at home on DVD from, our public library.

Typically I'm not a fan of faith based films. I find them to be a little over the top and cheesy. But this movie honestly blew me away! KJ APA and Britt Robertson were amazing and had great chemistry! I believed from the moment they met on screen that they had fallen for each other, which made the story so much more engaging. There were many moments when I couldn't hold back my tears, but at the same time I felt uplifted. This movie was more about how to overcome extremely difficult circumstances that many of us will face in our lifetime, than about pushing an evangelical message; but don't get me wrong, the message of hope was clear, and it's a message that I encourage everyone to hear! This is truly one of my favorite movies of the year. The Erwin brothers are terrific directors and storytellers, and I look forward to seeing more of their work in the years to come!

To be honest this is my first review ever, i did this review because this movie has really touched my soul, I've never in my life saw a movie that really made my tears drop but today 28/march/2020 i marked my favourite movie ever, the movie that made me cry, the movie that made me realise that i should be thankful for everything i got from friends and family, the movie that will change my perspective of life.

This movie has many meanings that can be translated into one meaning that is to have a strong faith in god and always be sure that miracles can and will happen just keep believing in god and have a strong faith.

What else can i say cant and will not describe my feelings now, i just dont have the right words...

Thanks for reading this review...
