The Resurrection of Gavin Stone

When you watch a Marvel movie, you expect certain cliches. Same here. But as many have pointed out, it's not over the top cheesy. I also like that it's a generic Christian film that doesn't try to ramrod denomination specific beliefs. The basics of starting over again, helping others, finding truth for yourself, etc.

Wow. Despite its predictable nature, this movie is remarkably well done.

Too many faith based films lay it on too thick or can be ham-fisted and not believable. That's not the case with this movie. All the characters have depth and remarkable charm, especially the leads. In a perfect world, Brett Dalton would receive award nomination consideration for his performance. Sounds completely odd saying that about any January release but he really was that good.

The set up in the first act plays out light and predictable but after a connection is made, the rest of the film is refreshing, complex and charming yet spiritual in the best way possible. The Gavin Stone character has a true arc and true development worthy of any big budget quality Hollywood production. They capture why faith is important in those "fly over" states mentioned in the movie.

True Christian ethics are on display and this is truly a worthy effort and the best feel good film that I've seen in years.

This is a Christian Propaganda movie and I'm an unbeliever. To be precise I made mine Captain Fantastic's lines where the children say 'We don't make fun of People … (Pause) … except Christians'.

This film was however nice. An Indie movie with an inspired plot and good lines. And art is art, no matter who makes it and what his certainties are. What matters is only the result and both Andrea Nasfell (Writer) and Dallas Jenkins (Director) are renowned artists, and all the Cast did well (Brett Dalton in particular).

So if you'd like to watch, sit down and breathe normally. Even though Christians will Try and Convert you, I've already been through it and made it trough the end unchanged. And so will you, I'm sure.

I only watched this because I respect Dallas' work from "the Chosen". I was SO HAPPY this movie was great: it was funny (poked fun at Christians), serious - showed the beauty of Christianity, it had great acting, and a fun plot line!

My husband and I love to critique movies, but we couldn't' think of anything bad about this movie. It wasn't cheesy or B-rated...just all around awesome.

I highly recommend this movie to anybody who wants a movie with no swearing or sex and just great entertainment!

Sure, a religious movie but just right combination of a good story and credible acting.
