Ja Rule and Adrienne Houghton in I'm in Love with a Church Girl (2013)
Miles Montego (Ja Rule) has it all - cars, boats, good looks, mansion, money, women, but more importantly, he has a past. Miles is a retired high level drug trafficker who is now completely legitimate. Even though Miles has turned over a new leaf, the DEA can't seem to let him out of their sights. Miles' only downfall is that he is extremely loyal to his circle of friends and former colleagues who are not retired from the lucrative business. Struggling to keep on the right side of the law, Miles meets the one girl of his dreams but she's not the usual type of girl that he's used to dating. Vanessa (Adrienne Bailon) is a church girl in every sense of the word. They are tested to their last ounce of faith and strength in God and each other. God continues to chip away at Miles through struggles from his past, having to live up to his reputation, feelings of unworthiness, the death of his mother, federal charges, his friends being indicted, the strain on his relationship with Vanessa, almost losing her in a near fatal car accident, and finally the spiritual breakdown and one on one with God that brings Miles to his knees.

    I can't even believe I bared to finish it!

    Worst movie I have EVER seen and I've seen some bad next door neighbor independent film movies! The acting and over acting oh my goodness I can't...

    so bad

    This movie was so silly and full of nonesense. church girl was with him for his money, his character was piece of crap and all of the movie is about money talks idiom . I don't know but I got GTA san andreas vibes from main character

    Bad acting but I'll watch cus ja rule

    Bad script well maybe wouldn't be that bad if the acting was better. I'm bored so I'm watching it

    Strictly for God-fearing church-going super-religious people!

    Gangster meets a church-girl and goes good didn't sound too shabby for a movie, and Ja Rule's name is a sure-shot to boost up the street-cred but... And I do mean but... This is one of the preachiest movies I have ever seen in my whole life... Granted, it's a Gospel movie company that did it BUT does that mean that they have to refer to God or the bible in 75% of all the scenes in the movie? They even gave God a executive producer spot for the movie lol... And there are no gangsterish scenes to be talked about either, Ja Rule is out of the gangster-life already when the movie starts so it's not as much of a "coming of age"-story as I expected either... Acting-wise Ja Rule is actually pretty good, but the script and dialogue is sometimes not even bearable due the writers trying to constantly push their Gospel-agenda down the viewers throats... If however you are super-religious and go to church every Sunday (like everyone should do according to the movie) then yeah you might like it...

    This is anything but Christian

    Well... it's that kind of Christianity so fashionable these days that offers a cool God of the world and therefore very lacking in meaning. This is what this movie is, it is a movie of the world, no matter how much they speak of God, it is empty, excessively materialistic and completely leaves aside the essence and the teachings of our Lord.

    It's sad to see something like that....

    This movie gives a terrible example, not to mention the Pastor.... seriously, what kind of Pastor is that? Makes me sick.

    Please be alert to the lie of Satan so present today in Christian circles.
