God's Country Song

I agree there was too much crammed into a TV movie. I would have like to have seen more development of Noah's relationship with JJ and Leane if you are going to have those in the story. Noah had a drinking problem. We get that. Pretty stupid, but then that can be blamed on his relationship with his dad and the event that torpedoed that. Probably should have left out the Leane part. The screen time spent on that was trite and cliche. What in the world did she see in him and why did she give him JJ so easily? When they were dating he didn't treat her that great. He was happy to have her around without putting in a lot of effort.

Except for overdoing Noah's downward spiral given the screentime constraints, the movie does have some good moments on the serious side. This is a faith-based movie, but seems like his journey to repentance was rushed also. It almost seemed like his dad's awards were what brought Noah around.

Not a bad movie, but it had some problems especially rushing everything.

Seemed a little rushed. Trying to fit TOO MUCH story into 90+ minutes. Music career. Child he didn't know about. Excessive alcohol drinking. Bar fight. Estranged father. Brother died. Meeting a woman. Supportive mother. The root of story kind of gets lost with so many subjects being brought into play. BUT I'm not sure what the root of the story was supposed to be! Way too much going on. Focusing on ONE would have been much better - like the child he takes on after finding out about him. Bonding ... the other stuff could have been dealt with as a background- but the way it was presented ... all the stories were "background." Not ONE was a focus. Would not watch again ...
