Faith Ba$ed

NOT funny. Then why did it look funny in the trailer? Because the idea for the story was kinda funny.

The bad: the 2 leading actors are bland. Way below average. AND they do not have any comical skills whatsoever.

More bad: a nice trailer can be made out of anything worthless, so it goes to show, but a really funny movie is hard work and you need a GREAT WRITER and GREAT ACTORS as a bare minimum. This movie lacked both.

Completely forgettable...

As someone who just "left" the Christian faith VERY recently due to some of the exact issues presented in the movie; it was honestly a really therapeutic viewing experience. 'Faith Based', on the surface, is a goofy buddy-comedy about two friends trying to get rich. But underneath the puns and bro comedy lies a very thoughtful critique on the culture that surrounds the Christian faith, and how much of it comes off as a very performative act. I worked at a church AND a movie theater during the huge faith-based film craze, and this movie nailed the atmosphere perfectly (and that worship song had me equally cracking up and cringing at its accuracy). I wasn't sure what to expect when I sat down to watch this movie but I was pleasantly surprised by the end result. I for one am excited to see what this team does next.

I accidentally came across this project. I do not fully understand what really interested me - the title, the abstract or the poster. But I firmly decided to spend 4 hours of my time watching this video.

And he did not regret it.

It's hard for me to call what I watched a comedy. To be honest, I smiled only in two moments and never once laughed out loud.

But there is something in this film. The picture is not full of philosophical meanings about the meaning of being and true friendship. The characters make you feel for them. Perhaps you can see yourself in them - an adventurous and talented person who cannot or does not want to put all of himself into business or simply find his niche in life.

It's a 7/10 and not a point below. I recommend watching.

Making a promising premise of an idea, that i laughed at at first glance, drown in a gurgling babble of dialouging..Its like walking on thin ice, stark naked and praying to god, will it carry me through this? well the music made for this film carries the spirits till the end of the tunnel of light, so theres hope for everyone if youre a believer...

its a comedy take on religious moneymaking, where the smile and chime in getogethernes in the name of what you believe to be the higher source, in a win win opportunity to make quick money on a film franchise for true believers.

if you love richard riehle celebrate his 404'ish or around that feature movies as an actor, elsewise i'm still sitting here like a bull waiting for a good movie made by opportunists on cristian moviemaking cause cristian movies dont need to be good, because they are bad, and so is this one too.

but if you like b.acting on a c-scale with wind and wuthering in your sole, please be my guest, because im old and grumpy , therefore just a 5, a small recommend

As someone who has endured all three of the God's Not Dead Trilogy, I can assure you that this film does not suck. It has well-written dialogue (only took a point off for some of the more cornier lines), interesting and fun characters, REAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF SAID CHARACTERS, a famous guest star that isn't Kirk Cameron, and so much more! If you're a big fan of satire, but with a purpose, Please do yourself a favor and watch this!
