Beyond the Farthest Star

I'll admit that I bought this movie just because Renee O'Connor of Xena fame was in it. But by the end of it, I had moved on from that.

This movie is amazingly deep and mysterious. It sheds light on what happens when we aren't true to ourselves and hide the truth. Eventually, the truth wins out and our true meaning comes forward.

From Adam following his father, even though I don't feel he truly wanted to, to Maureen hiding a lie, that was slowly destroying her, and onto Annie who didn't know who or what she was. It was riveting and painful and sad.

Yes, there is a religious undertone to the story, but it's not religious. I didn't feel preached to at all.

Loved it and highly recommend!

I absolutely loved this film. I can see this giving hope and bringing light into the lives of teens struggling to find happiness and to their parents who want to help them. The cinematography was excellent. The lighting was done well, the shot selection was good and the acting was great. Living in Texas I know they didn't just take the easy stereotype for each actor. These actors passed stereotypes and portrayed idiosyncrasies that really made each character come alive. It was as if the creators took perceived public opinion, wrinkled it in a ball and threw it in the trash to be replaced with what the majority really believes. The events and issues represented real struggles in the world. I was inspired by the messages portrayed and would say that faith-based film is making a strong case to rival mainstream film content in the box office.

This film will tug at your heartstrings and yet give your spirit hope and joy. It is a rollercoaster of emotions as you journey with the characters to the end. Each actor did a wonderful job in helping their character come alive. But Renee O' Connor and Cherami Leigh did an outstanding job in the depths of their acting. At times I found myself wanting to reach out and give them a hug. This is a great film to help start family dialog with any and all issues individuals might be experiencing.

I was captivated just from watching the trailer, it's mind-blowing. Everything draws the viewer in from the cinematography to the beautiful acting.

Wow!!! I just got through watching the movie "Beyond the Farthest Star". I have always said that christian, faith based or inspirational movies (whatever you choose to call them) that they need to be real. Don't show me a movie that is all goodness and light because let's face it...even those who were brought up in the church go through dark times. Just because you are a Christian it does not make you immune to the real heartaches that people endure! Everyone christian and non christian has a past....has a secret or two...and the enemy will use that to tear you apart. But God is bigger than all that and he will bring beauty from ashes!!! Well this movie is real....and it shows you that God no matter how dark it may seem to you can and will bring beauty from among those ashes!!! Well done!! I encourage you to watch this film. It is out now on dvd...you can purchase it in many locations, Walmart, Amazon to name a few! So get the dvd...and invite some friends over for a pizza and movie night........you won't be sorry!
