The beginning is so horrible that it's funny. The director has no knowledge of how emergencies are handled. I've worked a field where cpr and emergencies were almost a daily occurrence. Those two guys were like dumb and dumber. You don't sit there and slowly put on gloves. And also the use of the stethoscope, lame. Never seen someone check a pulse then use a stethoscope. Couldn't go on from there. If the opening scene is that bad, then the rest is more than likely just as bad. Please directors, do your homework on procedures before making a film, it makes the film horrible to watch, especially by professionals in the field.

The movie opens with a scene where paramedics cut open the shirt and expose the bra of a young woman.

Then we find a scene where evolution is promoted, while the professor mentions intelligent design as an afterthought and as an 'and if you believe in that ...' option.

Soon after the main protagonist is found to participate in fortune telling, and she wears inappropriate clothing in nearly every scene of the movie.

Then there is the first scene of extramarital sex, followed soon after by an even more intimate scene.

That was 30 minutes in.

Those scenes alone have the strong potential to lead someone away from the Lord.

Later the movie endorses Nietzsche (well known to have hated THEOS by declaring: "God is Dead"):

"Nietzsche is arguing that we have peeled God off and put ourselves in his place. Now the magnet in the story is ridiculed by the people in the marketplace for making his search for God known, they laugh at him and make sarcastic excuses."

The warfare displayed is also not a spiritual warfare which could come from the Bible. It is just a primitive copy of the paranormal stuff we find in secular movies, with a touch of THEOS in it and with a happy end.

The whole story might include some good elements, but it is the last I would recommend to anyone I want to bring to THEOS. This movie rather brings people away from Him and builds a very bad foundation for someone who becomes a Christian.

Charge Over You is the story of a young woman struggling to find meaning in her life after a chain of devastating personal events.

For a film with such a modest budget, Charge Over You blows most of today's mainstream cinematic rubbish out the window. It's a solid, well told story that is paired up with Hollywood grade cinematography and a strong supporting cast, namely the talented newcomer, James Lee. The plot twists and turns making it original and unpredictable, which is a breath of fresh air.

This is Director, Richard Steenekamp's second feature length film, and there is little doubt in the years to come he will be a household name.

I'm giving Charge Over You an 8/10.

Branded on Pureflix under Spiritual Warfare, nit exactly what I was looking for, but turned into n interesting story, and left me thoughtful at the end. The main character fights with Satan, and is rescued by an angel, but the depiction of the angel was a bit poor. Hanged in though. Interesting allegory.

If you love cheap independent film than this is for you.
