Time To Grow Up
22 November 2017
Josiah David Warren both directs and stars in another Christian film about taking on some unexpected responsibilities. He's had a pretty good existence with a wealthy widower father paying the bills with only an occasional ask for babysitting his much younger siblings. But that all ends when Dad is killed in a plane crash and he takes on business and family responsibilities.

As far as the business goes which we never quite learn what it is, I'm sure dad left behind a competent board of directors who could run things if needed. I doubt they would just hand over the running of the company to a 19 year old.

As for the kids if this was a poor family child welfare would be johnny on the spot and place those kids in foster homes. That would be a real challenge. His only challenge is his good times have been hampered.

All this though has to meet Christian parameters and the film has Warren falling for A Christian girl. A lot of people do manage to grow up and assume responsibilities without becoming fundamentalists.

Over My Head had the potential to be a really good comedy, but it's strictly amateur with the performances.
