Catching Faith

The only two redeeming characters in this movie are the dad and the daughter. The mother is just ridiculous and whoever chose the wardrobe for the Bible study leader.......🙄 Shallow football film with even more shallow plot. He is a pouty little brat kind of like his mom. Don't waste your time.

I am a Christian and love a good faith based movie but this was not one of them. I HATED this movie. The acting is awful and awkward. The way the movie was written is very un- natural, over-dramatic, labored and too deliberate. It is actually rather painful to watch it was done so poorly. The editing is very poorly done as well and there are many inconsistencies. Also the movie is not based in reality. People don't act in real life at all like they do in this movie. The movie suggests that life is perfect and everything has to be done perfectly which is not realistic at all. I could' even finish it and only got about 3/4 through it. If you want a good faith based movie try Gods not dead or do you believe or war room but stay far far away from this one!!! It is easily one of the worst movies I ever saw!

I will admit that the acting was simply horrible; no Oscar performances here. The story was a good one even though it felt rushed. It's hard to capture someone's walk with God in a 88 minute film and yes, some of what took place was overdone, but in the end it didnt matter to me. This movie is about realizing that your walk with God has been lukewarm and it's time to amp thing up, regardless of what that may mean. In this case it meant teaching your child to do the right thing even when it meant not liking the consequences or taking the chance that others weren't going to like it either. This is what it means to be a Christian.

A pretty happy housewife seems to have a good life. Then her Dad dies, her football star boy gets busted for underage drinking. Her valedictorian girl cheats at a test.

Not a major set of crises but more realistic that way. Things that could affect regular people. See how she deals with her setbacks through faith.

I love indie films! "Catching Faith" might be a faith-based spiritual movie, but don't let the catchy title fool you. It has a relevant message for everyone of any faith or belief system. What is most important to you? We are all the same in this world with daily temptations, doubts, and fears that can change your future forever, depending upon your integrity and what you decide to do. The well-written story gives us so many compelling examples of choices we all face and the consequences of our actions. Without throwing in any spoilers, I empathized and fell in love with this family and their friends as they grew in so many ways.

I loved the setting of this movie because it was shot in northwestern Wisconsin, showcasing the small-town beauty of not only the communities that make up the "Chippewa Valley" area, but also the lovely people. It is amazing to learn of so many talented locals being used in this professional production, and then seeing every single person listed in the credits! "Catching Faith" is a feel-good family movie shot in what I consider a gorgeous all-American setting. I hope this indie movie gets a wide release, as it has a wide appeal!
