Christian bunk

It was just thinly veiled Christian melodrama. The acting was dinner theater level at best as if they hired local talent or random friends to help with a passion project. It was a waste of time on my part seeing it and on the part of those involved. I hope the at least had a good time at the premier party and enjoyed playing dress up so they could feel good about themselves in front of friends and family because objective viewers like myself won't be praising them for their efforts. I wouldn't mind giving a little bit more for a ticket, if it would pay for some film and acting classes but otherwise it's not worth it.

What Society needs today....Truth

In this age of self and identity politics we need to show the very real struggles people deal with everyday. We need each other and a firm foundation to stand on to make the most of what life we are given. This movie shows some of those struggles in a very creative way on a shoestring budget. Exploring the depths of human emotions in a captivating and entertaining way holds your attention from beginning to end. Well worth the time and can open avenues of dialog with young people in our lives. The chosen actors bring these characters and their lives front and center and deliver very believable drama that will take you on a ride into what each of their lives are like.

I believe this move is exactly what the younger generation needs. It touches base on the identity crisis we face in our youth. You had young women who were trying to fit in. And you had a young man, who was trying to be tuff and almost killed somebody. Then him having to spend time in jail becuaee of his actions. You have young woman being peer pressured to have intercourse with her boyfriend, on multiple occasions. You even have a young woman who got pregnant. The worst part is the father doesn't even want to be in the child's life. I've seen this happen before in my family, with my aunt. So that part hit home on a different level. I seen. A young women going through the death of her father, having a identity crisis.

A rare honesty from this genre

I went in blind from a TikTok post. No trailer or research. And I was shocked at how this movie tackled the topics it did. I kinda felt all movies with a message would be draining or cheesy but this was neither. Paper Gems is brave and willing to be real instead of safe. I'm grateful I came across this.

My only critique would be the runtime. Although there were a lot of characters to follow, each with their own stories, some of the scenes were very detailed. I enjoyed the depth but I can see how some viewers may not appreciate it as much as I do.

All in all, Paper Gems is something I would recommend for a church screening for a youth group or summer camp. Maybe even taking the time to answer the questions being asked in the movie themselves.
