I Believe

Accidentally started watching on YouTube. I'm a believer, but find most Christian movies are not very well done. Being a long time foreign film watcher and having seen so many well acted movies I am spoiled. But now I am trying to get away from the darkness and R ratings. The acting in this is often wooden, and the script is not that great. But the little boy, even though he is not a great actor, brings a sweetness to the film. And Wilfred Brimley as the laid back down to earth pastor is endearing, as is the bookstore owner. It is simplistic and non-believers will probably laugh but I liked it.

It kind of givea false sence of God and his word. It does say corect biblical things. But can give off the wrong message.

This movie teaches us to have the faith of a child with an adorable little boy as the lead. Brian shows us what it is to have faith and not let go of it. I agree the acting was not academy award winning, not even close, but I love what this film stands for. God used the child to perform miracles and bring people to Him. Mark 11:24 says that whatever you ask for in prayer believe it and it shall be yours. I loved this heartwarming movie.

Let me tell you the performing is not the best part of this movie, but it has a strong story with profound questions which everybody should ask themselves.

The movie has a good pace, profound questions, good picture, and, once again, could have a better performing.

I can't believe people give a higher rate for completely poor scripts like Marvel and DC movies and try to spread their hate here. The comments here try to diminish what God can do.

I strongly recommend to watch this movie and truly answer the same questions presented in the movie.

Watch by yourself and then define if the movie is good or not.

I loved this movie and shed buckets of tears while watching it but I am dying of cancer so that may have been a factor.

I also loved Wilford Brimley's pastor in it, always a favourite character actor and glad to see his image redeemed after his creepy role in The Firm.

Reviews on this movie will be mixed I'm sure - or maybe just a lot of 1s and a lot of 10s. I noticed a few flaws but I didn't let it spoil the experience for me. Can't wait to watch it again before my rental time runs out - wish I'd bought it instead.

Still might . . .
