The Masked Saint

Don't pay much attention to the reviews from the atheist cheap seats. They don't get it or never will (Emjay 61066) . The movie is very inspirational at A time when we need such things. You must take it for what it's worth a true story of a great man doing great things. Sorry there is not enough sex or violence or big named stars. The true star of this movie is Dr. Chris Whaley who gives of his time freely and ministers now to hundreds of firefighters in need of his spiritual guidance. The is a great movie go see it. If you like the movie Courageous or Fireproof then you will like Mask Saint Sorry Emjay I will pray for you

This is one of those movies where you don't expect a lot out of it, but it ends up being way better than you thought it would be..

Unlike maybe other action type movies in the "B" category, where you expect maybe something half decent and it doesn't perform..

This is sort of one of those B movies that is well worth watching.. Much better than most other action type movies out there..

Well I guess I should not say its an action movie, but it ends up being one but actually has a solid storyline behind it as well and some funny moments..

Some cheesy humor but the good type of cheesy..

I guess what I would say its got sort of that Kickboxer type feel to it.. Decent story, decent buildup, decent action..

Wouldn't say expect some spectacular movies or anything .. We are talking WWE wrestling type stuff here.. But definitely good enough to get your blood pumping..

All the negative reviews didn't dampen my heartfelt love for this film! Besides, I recognized Roddy Piper in the cast -- surely just before his untimely death. Although it was so good to see Rowdie Roddy again, the story has warmth, heart, and all sorts of Good Stuff. So when you get tired of the nonsense that Hollywood typically wants to fill you with, tired of ray guns, monsters, and the like, give this film a look -- you won't be disappointed.

Brett Granstaff plays Chris who is an ex Professional and masked wrestler. He retires to become a Pastor in a parish that is on the wrong side of the tracks. Once there he sees the crime and violence and a church in the grip of a megalomaniac and a congregation that is dwindling beyond the point where the church could be economically viable.

So he resurrects his old job to help his new community. This film is based on the true life of such a Pastor – so is the film any good? Well yes and no, it is watchable in a very basic way. The good guys wear white and the bad guys black. There is no subtlety here at all of ambiguity that would help to give the plot any kind of authenticity.

The acting and dialogue is terrible in places and the direction is almost missable. It is though the story that lacks credibility and the idea of marrying a Christian story with the violence of 'wrestling' seems a bit incongruous – and it is. It is funny – when it is not meant to be and cringe worthy when it tries. If you like a guilty pleasure of a film though this sort of works. I found it to be watchable but no one was preparing an Oscar acceptance speech whilst this was in production.

This is a great movie for anyone!

It has a very interesting story that's full of positive life messages on topics of bullying, domestic violence, faith and acceptance.

Nice to see a good wholesome movie without curse words left and right.

This is Brett Granstaff's 1st lead role in a movie that he co-wrote and worked hard training to do his own stunts-which is quite amazing in itself.

It was entertaining, has great acting, I cried, I laughed and I loved the wrestling too!

It was quite intense as if I were in the ring with The Saint!

This is a movie you should get out to see!
