Featured reviews
A really beautiful movie, excellent script, awesome casting, great directing & OUTSTANDING music. A stellar performance by the lead actress, Karen Abercrombie, makes this well worth the watch. I also really loved the teenagers - portrayed very believably & really moving dialogues for each of them. This is easily my most favorite movie from PureFlix so far. I cried twice!! Highly recommend for a quiet Sunday afternoon. The title song, "Discarded Things" by Ian Grey, is LOVELY. I'm going to look for it on ITunes. Very enjoyable.
This was an uplifting movie. However, as a recovering addict myself, they made rehab look like a cakewalk, and see if she just walked in was sick a few days and magically was fixed and got out. That is absolutely not the way it works. Granted, she had money and could go to a nice facility where she had a private room and all, but they did not show the facility giving her anything at all to help with her withdrawal, which can actually result in death if they don't give you something. Also showed no group meetings, none of the work that is necessary or happens in a decent rehab. Not a good movie for people who need to go to rehab.
Guaranteed to have you talking to the screen and ready to defend the main character throughout the movie.
This was one of the most beautiful movies i have ever watched in my entire life. Im am 26 years old. This movie is so good i had to leave a review. Hope faith and grace is within this movie. It is so so so beautiful. Cried a few times but tears of love and joy. The love of christ is displayed in this film. This should be in homes and theaters everywhere. More people should know about this film. I actually began watching on accident and it caught my eye how good it was. From start to finish, plot twists and it was very easy to it to keep my attention. Deserves an Oscar which it may never receive. The best movies are made by independent film makers. God bless everyone who participated in this work of soulful art. Amazing acting and real life situations that inspire and sew a seed of God within you.
I thought this film was just alright. I have to admit, it had some good characters. I felt for the characters' struggles and understood their issues; therefore, the writing was effective in portraying relatable characters.
However, some of the performances weren't so great. The delivery of dialogue felt unconvincing at times, and didn't have the realism it could have had.
Also, the emotional impact of certain situations were lessened by the fast-paced plot; it didn't take long before the main events were set into place.
However, the cinematography did add to the realistic feel of the film by portraying certain scenes using shots to make it feel realistic to the audience.
Overall, I have mixed feelings about this film, but this still is a pretty good movie.
