John Light

I've worked with inmates just out of jail and prison and it's not easy work. Only by the grace of God can such changes happen in lives that have been badly damaged, and many times that damage occured during childhood. Beautiful and uplifting!

I really loved "John Light." It is rare for me to find a film and characters that both hooked me and made me wish for more.

The film isn't perfect, but it handles the journey of John Light well. The message is heartfelt and moving, with several laugh out loud moments, and a compelling story which many of us will identify with. The power of faith, of people who use their faith for good, and of being able to belong to a family, despite one's past, is something all people desire. This film is worthy and should be watched.

Highly recommended!

The movie has a connection for me being filmed in Arizona. I also worked as an adult and juvenile probation officer. What the movie gets right are the struggles a lot of guys in the system are faced with after release. At the same time any officer of the court must maintain professionalism.

This is a faith based movie that tells a good story about having faith in God even when the struggles constantly come at you for no reason other than you exist. One man is trying to move in from his past and live right but faces many obstacles. The message here is towards the young folks who think they're invincible. The choices and mistakes you make as a young person can come back and haunt you when you're older and trying to movie past it all. The production values are amateur and the acting is pretty bad. Otherwise it's a decent effort and story.

Excellent movie. It had funny moments, it had sweet moments, it had memorable moments. At the end, I just sat there a while and digested it. Conveyed genuine struggles that many go through. Well worth watching.

I don't care much for most Christian films. This one was different. I feel it showed real life struggles of what it must be like for an ex-con as they try to adapt to life outside prison walls. This film helped me see things from their perspective and hopefully reach out to those who look different than I do. Great cast and dialogue, the film makers did a great job.
