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.

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.

This is one of the best and enjoyable Christian movies that I have seen in a long time applying an 'everyday life' theme - well done guys! This film gives a very good and heavy example of someone who - yes he lied about his believe in Jesus - but Jesus changed his life through the believers in the play. Great chemistry in the Spirit with everyone. Kudos to the play and excellent story line and I pray that the Lord opens more opportunities for this group. What's next?

We enjoed this movie as a family. The plot is quite clichéd and esay to forsee. But the acting is good and there is some nice slapstick dialogue and a good natured humor which - if you are familiar with church culture - makes you laugh about yourself/your church culture in a refreshing way. It is a clearly faith based film centred around the message of love, forgiveness, grace and getting a second chance. Entertaining and family friendly. Not very compelling but not too cheesey.

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!
