Forty-Seven Days with Jesus

I was intrigued by the story set-up... the man, trying hard, the woman dissatisfied and unyielding at every little thing that she judged him about. How's this going to play out? I was taken aback that the story of the 47 days was done in pop musical style, and rode it out... My wife and I enjoyed watching it on a Sunday afternoon, and had a little conversation about it... who's right, who's wrong, who's side are you on? Any movie that promotes a discussion for understanding has some inspiration to it.

The actors were beautiful, the lines delivered with skill, the characters were all relatable when you account for the need of a story structure. Not preachy, a little predictable, but the message was clear, and showed what is possible when people come from a heart of love and are willing to put away the selfisness of copping and maintaining an attitude.

I'm willing to bet that many of the actors and crew are friends in real life, who decided to create a project together with a lasting positive message to share. Their skill, experience, and training showed up in every scene. Well-made and a welcome discovery on a cloudy Sunday.

Forty seven days with Jesus delivers a message to everyone, religious or not. It is a family friendly, feel good movie, that shares a story I think everyone can relate to in some way. A story of marital and family hardships followed by forgiveness and met with love the whole way through. Its soft approach makes it suitable for all ages. I am not a musical type of person but once I put that to the side and really just focused on the message , I started to appreciate it more. Although the message is suitable for all ages, it doesn't mean the message from the Bible is sugar coated. I believe it was portrayed genuinely and I appreciated the parts where it showed perfection ceases to exist in modern day and in the biblical times.

Wow!!!!!

Run, don't walk and bring the kids and grandkids! What a beautiful family movie! The acting is super solid. The directing was well done and the kids steal the show!!!! We need more movies like this especially now! Such an uplifting message and real life backdrop! Totally relatable! I didn't know what to expect... Loved it and the music/singing was unexpected and such a nice surprise! Such a wonderful way to tell the story LOVE!!!!!! I really enjoyed the "did you know" stuff before the film even started.... I hope this film makes its way into the lives of families across America and beyond...Bravo!

I really wanted to like this film. I'm a HUGE fan of "The Chosen" and have enjoyed recent "Christian-themed" movies like "Jesus Revolution", "The Shift and "His Only Son". I also like Yoshi Barrigas, who played the disciple Phillip for 2 seasons of "The Chosen". Alas, I wish he'd just stayed with "The Chosen". The plot of this film was more formulaic than even the corniest Hallmark Christmas movies, the dialog was wooden, and I'm sorry, but the musical numbers were really insufferable (and I love and have seen the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar" more times than I can count). Barrigas did the best he could with a fairly annoying character, but yikes. It's been a long time since I have been THIS disappointed in a film.

This movie was so much fun! The singing and dancing, the costumes, the sets, and of course the acting were all so entertaining. I think this film is a great way to introduce the Gospel to people. It delivers truth and encourages viewers to seek Jesus in their lives. The portrayal of Jesus and his miracles was heartwarming. The Burdon family was lovable, relatable, and real (and hilarious!) Finding a work/life balance is such a difficult thing, and this movie portrayed that issue in a realistic yet hopeful way. Finding parallels between the Gospel and modern day issues showed that the story of Jesus is just as important today as it was 2,000 years ago. This was a wonderful movie!
