Pardoned by Grace

Gyatt Scott burger is one of the best written characters in the history of film. He got away with crime and became sigma. Also its progression is very steep. There is a constant increasing line of story progression in which I am hooked into. Also the lawyer is kinda fine I won't lie to you. Anyway, after watching this movie my whole life changed. This movie pardoned me by grace and now I'm doing crimes like Scott. I plan to go to prison and visit just to talk about Scott just because he is just so important. I will never watch a different movie after this. I will forever watch this on loop. Thank you scott.

This hits home because I'm from the same city (Michigan city, IN) where this is being portrayed.

It feels more like a Saturday Night Live spoof of an over-the-top Christian film. It's just unwatchable. Joey Lawerence doesn't have the acting range to make a believable reformed criminal. There's not any point where you can take Joey Lawrence seriously without laughing at his corny performance.

There are too many poorly written mass-produced Christian propaganda films. I doubt judges are spouting off an endless barrage of Bible quotes in court.

It's a far cry from Highway to Heaven or Touch By an Angel. It's missing character development and the film is too peachy to be believable in any way.

This is just another poor quality mass produced assembly line religious propaganda film with no substance.

A few years ago I saw the documentary about the Indiana pastor this movie is based on. I found his story to be inspiring and moving. This movie on the other hand loses credibility with the miscast of Joey Lawrence and his bad Botox facial expressions. We're expected to believe he's some sort of strung out drug addict but yet he manages to vogue for those camera angles. It's like he's worried about catching the camera angles so that his good side is seen. Not to mention, he's got about as much acting "talent" as a used toothpick. While the true story is an incredible one of redemption and inspiration, this mess lags a leading actor who has the acting chops to capture it. I recommend checking out the documentary this is based on instead. Otherwise try to overcome the bad acting of Joey Lawrence and stomach this one.

I would recommend this movie. I can't tell you how it touched this Mom's heart and tears streamed as Scott (Joey Lawrence) told his mom goodbye. I have been that mom and grandma on the other end. So many moments I burst into tears because of how the love of God came through the message and I hoped my own daughter and grandson could come to Christ like Scott (Joey Lawrence) did. I felt his acting was pretty darn good. He was all in, angry, sad, depressed, lonely, he feened for the next fix and more. I would recommend watching cause for parents desiring to see their loved ones turn 180° towards Christ and have a new freedom in life this gives hope. Michael W. Smith portrayed the love of Christ I've experienced from pastors very well.
