Such a great movie...the story follows teens with real life issues, very relatable, easy to follow and at times very emotional. I Highly recommend watching this film, especially with your teens!! There are a lot of coachable moments that can be used to help your teen through real life struggles and challenges. The issues also relate to adults though and how you can best work through challenges that your teen may be having. This film is not a high budget film but is still extremely well done. The story is top notch, great directing and even though the actors are not big names they still do a great job. Check out this film!!
I loved this movie it was very well written and all the actors were amazing. It has a great story and love the way that the writer included GOD in this movies. DCTF are simply the best movies. I believe this film should be seen in theaters there is a need for more movies like this nowadays. All the actors were great they did awesome work.
I'm glad I have a copy of this movie in my library. I feel that this movie should be shown to high school kids so they can make better choices.
I love DCTF they are the best movies. Please consider making it available for everyone to watch it has a great impact.

Once again the director of this movie brought issues from real life into this picture and into your home. At first I thought these girls should be in juvenile hall and receive some tough love. But instead they are left to God. To see these girls go from one extreme to another was truly very emotional. It shows the miracles God can do if you just believe and put your faith and life in to God. As always the faith in God shows that the director truly loves God and is putting the word out that all you have to do is believe. As always this directors movies are in my collection. I have shared all of them with family and friends.
No, this film did not operate on a big budget or have nationally known talent in the film. Yes, this film has real people facing real challenges and dealing with real issues in life. You will see some really "stand out" talent, very well done cinematography, a story that communicates well the struggles people face and how they receive deliverance and hope in their lives. No one is so low that God cannot bring them up and out of the darkness. It's a really good film that the family can see and benefit from. On an added note it would also be a really good movie for youth groups to see as there are wonderful lessons that can be learned from "A Second Chance".
Three girls are given a second chance at being productive members of society by the very person they 'wronged'.
Coming from challenging home situations, each of the three girls overcame the stigma of being arrested and went forward with their lives to appreciate forgiveness and learned to forgive.
Candy Beard and Daniel Beard once again prove themselves to be wonderful writers and directors.
Working with local authorities to make each scene realistic and believable just adds to the integrity of the storyline.
The cast and crew give of their talents to make this a most memorable and rewarding experience that makes all who see it appreciate the opportunity to re-do mistakes and improve the quality of life for all those around them.
