Uma Canção De Gratidão

I'm not one to cry in movies but I cried like a baby in this film. For King & Country is one of my favorite bands and they have talked so much about their story during their concerts but to see their story brought to life on the big screen is so inspiring. The hardship they went through after moving to the states was so sad. Joel Smallbone (for King & Country's frontman) co-directed and starred in the film. He is a good actor. It is truly amazing to see that no matter what was thrown at the family, nothing was able to separate them. I don't want to write much more without spoiling the film but I highly recommend the film. It's an incredible story of success, hardship but more importantly how despite all the challenges their faith stood strong and didn't deteriorate due the challenges they faced.

A story about faith, positivity, perseverance and following your dreams. About not giving up, family and doing whatever it takes to get ahead. Inspiring. About traditional values and the importance of a strong mother. Without the love of this mother the family would definitely not have stuck together. She was the glue that kept everything and everyone going. With dedication and faith the family Smallbone made it in America. They didn't divorce, they didn't blame one another, they kept going as a family, backed by the local community. Was it God? Was it friendliness? Was it positivity? Or was it all of that? Whatever it was, it sure is an example of how one can act when all falls down. Nice view.

I loved it. This is a powerful film about family, faith, and miracles. It made me laugh and cry. This movie is a perfect example on how we should be leading our familys. Not only that, but to teach children what it means to stay together as a family, and to pray as a family no Matter the circumstances. They did a wonderful job with this film. It's a wonderful story about one famly's journey from Australia to the U. S. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it. You won't regret it. It is kid friendly. If you like movies with family, faith, miracles, and music, then this movie is for you.

Christian movies can be predictable. Of course so are Road-Runner cartoons, and I thought those were great. "Unsung Hero" is a family story that is both unusual and typical; in that this is a family with lots of children for an audience probably only having one or two; following success and tragedy, the family is forced to move but don't just cross town, instead head out to a different country; and while upheaval surrounds, the mom of this story is also pregnant with their newest member.

How many dads would provide by leaving the family, seeking opportunities and sending money back. This mom will not allow her family to be broken apart. So we are invited to witness a dad who has lost his footing and maybe their entire future; we see the hearts of the children, doing what they can; and of course the aches and tears of mom.

There really are no epiphanies here, however to those who have seen many full-moons in their lifetime, there may well be the too familiar failure of putting food back at the grocer checkout, no longer having furniture, or battling ones own ego at simple invitations of neighbours living life better, or learning how to gratefully accept help from others.

If you're a dad who has pulled your child from social program because you can't get $60 to keep her in, or a grandparent sharing all that you can, only to have it all fall on deaf ears, or watched God provide something that never should have arrived at just the right the time, this may well be a movie that grants you a smile and a laugh and a tear.

Most people will learn little from this movie, beyond families are paramount, and God is good. Life unfolded well for this family and they have made significant impacts on the lives of many people. I believe all the faithful have that same opportunity to have a positive impact on those around them. That is worth remembering, and that makes this movie a good usage of 2 hours and worthy of supporting.

Giving this a 7/ 10

Out today is is this rather good true life tale of what can happen when you throw your life into leaving your home country and moving else where. And it's not easy, it's hard as anything.

An music promoter is not having any luck in his home country and decides to move out, chance everything, on a new life in another country, America. The results are not for those thinking of moving and chancing your life, it's hell, and I am amazed at the ending of all this, as it does make this film worth a watch, even if it can be very cheesy at times, writers and directors Richard L. Ramsey and Joel Smallbone, spare us nothing on the suffering that the family goes through, and really stick to their hopes and dreams, which uplift this film, making you want to watch this until the very end, well, I did.

Daisy Bets is the actor who keeps the film watchable, as does Joel Smallbone, both carry this film and are just perfect. Kirrilee berger is captivating and you care for world view. This film is a strange one, for a summer film, but it shows what can come out in this period and be a sit down and watch. Watch all the trailers before you go on this one, before you go.
