I Can't Breathe (God Forgive Them)

We all watch indie films and expect there to be technical flaws, confusing or unpolished subplots and poor acting...especially when the budget is under $100k but ya know what, this film impressed me. It was made with heart and based on an actual event with a real message to the public and not just entertainment. Entertaining is what Hollywood is there for. The main event in this film is similar to a nationally televised and recognized tragedy and titled as such. While this may offend some people I feel it's important to understand that this unfortunate ordeal isn't copyrighted to anyone. If it's happened elsewhere it should also be fair game for a film such as this one. Good job!

I'm sorry, I really wanted to give this flick a chance, seeing that it was produced locally. But really? Titling your film "I Can't Breathe" in the wake of the George Floyd tragedy? I understand that this film was meant to be an analogy for the story of Job, but it seems like a glaring oversight on so many fronts.

This movie was very gripping and disturbing at the same time. I felt such empathy and sadness for the victim for all he had to endure, and such disdain for the ignorance of the police officers involved, May God forgive them. I hope every law enforcement agency would require cadets to see this movie prior to joining the force. The sad part about it is that there are still police officers that behave this way in every city in every state. All my prayers and support to the victim and his family and pray that they may have a blessed life from here on in. I can't wait to see the final outcome I just see that justice is restored.

I like the way the movie starts out with action, and I have seen the ambulance reports, saying they needed to bring emergency life support system and hospital reports saying he was admitted to ICU. The man has been posting those reports on Linkedin and Facebook, along with deposition from the security guard on duty that night, stating the guard heard Mr Laresca screaming I CANT BREATHE, YOUR KILLING ME, and I AM DYING. He also showed police reports that say they called the ambulance because an officer hurt his wrist, pretty big contradiction with ambulance reports right there. So if I were put into intensive care by the police, and hired lawyer after lawyer without the police being questioned, I wouldn't let it go either. He also wrote a book about it in 2009, worked as a trader on Wall Street for 25 years, never guilty of a crime in his life, why weren't those police questioned? Sounds like the exclusive development in Boca Raton where this happened did not want this story out. Also why would the man offer 100K for the police to finally talk? If they weren't guilty why not talk, I would talk about anything if I was innocent, especially for 100K.

Thinking about this heart breaking movie brings tears to my eyes! Police brutality is getting worse in this country every day! My heart goes out to my big brother Tommy who I love as blood family in Christ! The thought of being attacked by law enforcement when you are innocent scares me to know end. In my hometown of Cincinnati Ohio, there have been some very bad cops over the decades. In Chillicothe Ohio, there has been corruption in law enforcement as well. Tommy is blessed to have survived this brutal senseless attack. These corrupt police better repent and get saved and lead better lives because Jesus is soon to return. I know Tommy online and I am so proud to call him my brother. Kevin Sorbo is one of my favorite actors. This Christian movie should win awards. My heart goes out to Tommy and I consider him a modern day Superman! I have plans of joining his church in NYC Statin Island. God bless this true super hero and God bless his wife, kids and family. The movie cast is full of superior actors and actresses. I want to buy the book and a copy of this movie. This is hands down one of the best christian movies of the 21st century! I highly recommend!
