The UnMiracle

The only two names you might know from this cast of The UnMiracle are Kevin Sorbo as a preacher/drug counselor and Stephen Baldwin as the father of a young girl who overdoses at a party on a big drug cocktail. Because someone called 911 her life was saved, but she is in a coma and it's not certain whether she'll come out of it. Her case is having a ripple effect among her friends and family and that's what The UnMiracle is all about.

This one is not likely to get mainstream showings. The acting and direction are pretty bad and the story defies logic in many places.

Strictly for believers. amateurish

Well I admit the acting was pretty bad. But the story line addresses real issues in a real world. Addiction, PTSD, and how easy it is to loose our faith. This movie was just what I needed, just when I needed it.

The dialog is bad. The acting is bad. It purports to be a Christian movie, but the teenage Christian character is arrogant and defiant in the name of WWJD and the "gospel" presentation by the woman is deistic at best ("God stepped away" she said), not Christian by any recognizable feature.

Smarter than your average Christian movie, the story raises questions instead of answering them - and that will turn off a lot of people, because its not a sermon movie or a pep talk about God. It's a meditation on the mystery of faith. its the perfect movie for Bible discussion groups looking for more philosophical Christian films to analyze. We did and it was a very deep talk that extended many weeks. Once you start thinking about what it's saying, you realize it's pretty well thought out. It's a different kind of Christian movie. For people who's faith is being tested and are looking to really examine their own faith because of terrible tragedy - this is the ticket. It's not an easy watch, but I'm glad we did.

Only those who don't know the power of God will find this movie bad, I liked it a lot and it shows just a little of the things that God can do in our lives. I don't usually care much about the actors' performance, but about the message that the film wants to convey, and this film has a great message.
