The Blind

Wonderful film demonstrating the redemptive love of God! The true story of Phil Robertson of "Duck Dynasty" fame. The film takes you from his destitute beginnings to "Duck Commander". The power of "burying the old man" and being born again to a new life in Jesus Christ cannot be denied. If you are trying to fill the hole in your heart with everything this world offers-you will never find true peace until you give Jesus control of your life. Try Him!!! Ask Jesus to come into your heart, find a Bible-believing church and be baptized, as shown in the movie. You will never regret it! Join the family of God-your life will be changed for eternity.

Started off great. If you have read the books by both; this was a disappointmemt. The actors just dont cut it. It was like watching a cheap C movie at best. They left a load of the story out. I dont understand why it stopped in the 80s? They talked about God but it was more of a backround thing. A few of Phils siblings was missing. Also, timeline seemed off. A bigger production and casting company should have been in charge. It was way way too sugur coated. They didet even really show any of the story about the duck calls. They never explained how Kay made money when he was drinkimh. Just much wrong.

Saw The Blind yesterday. I wondered how knowing the levels Phil had sunk down to would affect how people thought of him. Some of it is tough to watch...the anger, the lies, cheating. A side of the man I didn't know existed although not wholly surprised. It was well acted and produced for the most part and I would definitely recommend people going to see it. I would have liked a bit more character development. But it was most likely such a difficult life that it would have been a 3 hour movie. Knowing Phil Robertson and family, I imagine this is one of the most spot on biography films we're going to see for a long time.

Such a beautiful picture of hope, forgiveness and redemption. It was powerful! The Robertson family could've made a movie about their fame and fortune or business success. But they chose to show the "dirty laundry" to give others hope. To show that there is no one too bad, no sin too great for the Blood of Jesus to cover. The scenery was beautiful Louisiana rivers and swamps. The acting was great. The story line was accurate. I pray that this movie might impact folks to want to hear that same story that the preacher shared with Phil. And that they might surrender to the Almighty! Highly recommend!!!

I've only seen a couple of episodes of Duck Dynasty, but I know a little bit about the family, the Robertsons, and as a Christian was eager to see this movie The true story of Phils redemption was interesting, but nothing we haven't seen in movies before. I enjoyed learning the story of Phil and Ms. Kay, but the quality seemed a bit low budget and came off more like a Lifetime/Hallmark TV movie. The acting and directing were not the best, but what was most frustrating is the lead actors were very hard to understand and you miss a lot of the dialogue due to the accents and mumbling. Phil, especially, barely moved his lips. I couldn't understand half of what he said.

The theater said this was a special showing/production so we couldn't use our Regal Unlimited, (which would've been nice to know ahead of time) so had to pay full price, as well is traveling a bit further to one of the limited theaters it was showing at. Was it worth it? I love movies, so I'm glad I saw it, just wish it had of been a better quality of movie. IMHO! 6.5 stars 10/2023.
