Unsung Hero

Please get out and support this film UNSUNG HERO - we need JESUS at the theaters. The incredible Smallbone family is about incredible faith in God. Our church supports this film.

Another must-see movie is 'THE FIRING SQUAD' coming out I think August 2.

Both of these films are incredible and we must do all we can to bring unsaved people to the theaters if they won't go to church. The Apostle Paul says, "I become all things to all men to win some to Christ" 1 Corinth 9:22.

The Great Commission is not The Great Suggestion. Telling people about a Savior is the greatest thing you can do in this lifetime

Our country needs Jesus more than ever. Please support these films.

I'm not one to cry in movies but I cried like a baby in this film. For King & Country is one of my favorite bands and they have talked so much about their story during their concerts but to see their story brought to life on the big screen is so inspiring. The hardship they went through after moving to the states was so sad. Joel Smallbone (for King & Country's frontman) co-directed and starred in the film. He is a good actor. It is truly amazing to see that no matter what was thrown at the family, nothing was able to separate them. I don't want to write much more without spoiling the film but I highly recommend the film. It's an incredible story of success, hardship but more importantly how despite all the challenges their faith stood strong and didn't deteriorate due the challenges they faced.

I want to see this again!! Being on vacation this week my wife and I were lucky enough to be able to go see this on a special preview night. It even had some extra content before the movie started by for King & Country and an animated short. Not sure if those will be included on the wide release. I only saw the trailer once before I went to see the movie and only knowing it involved the for King & Country family because my wife told me. Was so surprised to learn that one of my favorite Christian artist was part of the Smallbone family! Their older sister is Rebecca St. James! I never knew of that connection and have been a fan of hers for years! That was a pleasant surprise. I really did enjoy this movie and laughed and I even noticed I got watery eyes a few times. I think the watery eyes were due to the cool air blowing into my face during the movie. My wife assured me that was not the case because the air wasn't even on. Oh? Definitely a movie to go see with family and friends and if I am fortunate enough to see it again I'm taking someone with us!

One of the best Christian Films Ive seen in a long time. It manages to get the point accross without being to preachy. The movie flows from start to finish and has some great ups and really sad downs ; but yet it doesnt drag at all. With all the hype and way over board promotion ; I expected it to be awful. Boy O Boy, was I wrong. Loved all the actors and Joel does a great job protraying his dad. Each kid picked did such a awesome job. My only complaint's are Candaces hair and Jonathans looked so fake.. like they dident even try. I really wanted to see more of Rebeecca Journy as well. Just remeber the movie is mostly about the mother and her faith and strengh..

Christian movies can be predictable. Of course so are Road-Runner cartoons, and I thought those were great. "Unsung Hero" is a family story that is both unusual and typical; in that this is a family with lots of children for an audience probably only having one or two; following success and tragedy, the family is forced to move but don't just cross town, instead head out to a different country; and while upheaval surrounds, the mom of this story is also pregnant with their newest member.

How many dads would provide by leaving the family, seeking opportunities and sending money back. This mom will not allow her family to be broken apart. So we are invited to witness a dad who has lost his footing and maybe their entire future; we see the hearts of the children, doing what they can; and of course the aches and tears of mom.

There really are no epiphanies here, however to those who have seen many full-moons in their lifetime, there may well be the too familiar failure of putting food back at the grocer checkout, no longer having furniture, or battling ones own ego at simple invitations of neighbours living life better, or learning how to gratefully accept help from others.

If you're a dad who has pulled your child from social program because you can't get $60 to keep her in, or a grandparent sharing all that you can, only to have it all fall on deaf ears, or watched God provide something that never should have arrived at just the right the time, this may well be a movie that grants you a smile and a laugh and a tear.

Most people will learn little from this movie, beyond families are paramount, and God is good. Life unfolded well for this family and they have made significant impacts on the lives of many people. I believe all the faithful have that same opportunity to have a positive impact on those around them. That is worth remembering, and that makes this movie a good usage of 2 hours and worthy of supporting.
