Peace River

This movie was very special. Well written, beautifully acted, heart wrenching, and redemptive, it's a must-see! Faith based movies tend to be underwhelming, but Benjamin Jones wrote an amazing, realistic, gripping, and beautiful script. It was believable, and dealt with topics like faith, prayer, honor, patriotism, betrayal, shame, loss, and redemption unlike any movie I've seen. I cried like a baby. But the message was filled with love, forgiveness, suffering, and the practical application of love even when it seems impossible. I wish every veteran could see this movie because the horrors of war are clear, and so was a message that anyone can have peace in their soul when we turn to God in our anguish. Watch it-you won't be sorry.

These cowboy filmmakers milked every cow to the last drop in terms of resources. The film felt more like a true story than fiction which truly proves the importance of the universal human conditions portrayed in the film. With a great script, acting, and true to life locations, the story really resonates. About 2/3rds of the way through I literally said out loud "I can't wait to watch this again!" The cinematography was impressive, fans of Terrance Mallick (Tree Of Life, A Hidden Life, Thin Red Line) will appreciate the camerawork throughout the film that conveys the true beauty of life throughout the film. An instant classic for the audience it finds. Watched the night of its premiere on Pure Flix.

One of the best movies I have seen in a long time! There is no trashy parts no bad language which is always a plus for me! Great story and very powerful! I'm assuming a lot of the negative reviews are because this is a Godly movie with strong positive values. A lot of people don't like that these days. The setting and filmography is outstanding. This movie will make you really think about how much soldiers sacrifice for our country. A great love story as well. I would watch it again and again! I hope this review will encourage more people to watch and spread the word about this film. Watch it! You won't regret it!

10 STAR RATING from me!!!

ABSOLUTELY a Must See! Very well filmed. Beautiful Cinematography! Inspiring story! Very well written script. Story comes full circle. Great quality acting.

I will definitely watch this film again and recommend it to everyone. I will be searching for more films Produced by all who were involved in creating this.

PEACE RIVER covers so many different aspects of life within the dimensions of Cowboy life, of Love, of War, of God's Love, Wisdom and Grace.

I was in the Film Industry for 20 years.

This is the quality of filmmaking that needs to be in Theaters today!

THANKS for bringing this story to UP TV.

Overall, I really liked this movie. I loved the plot, I loved the character development and I loved the settings. The horses and land are just beautiful. The story line broaches some heavy topics like infidelity, death, PTSD, violence in a very real but delicate way. I love the faith aspects and loved seeing a romance without any of the vulgar or inappropriate aspects of mainstream TV. One star less than perfect because it is a little lower production quality than mainstream TV level production, for example the rodeo scenes you can tell there weren't enough extras to fill the arena so the shots are a little odd, also some of the props seemed out of place. It seems about on par with a lot of Christian movies in that way. If you can get past that it really is a beautiful story of ranching, faith, family and love.
