Praise This

I love the fact that it clears up the concept that if your saved your perfect and a hypocrite if you mess up. The fact that it used a song platform for this was a great way to show that God can use anyone to carry out his will. Sometimes when we are being used by God we may not have a relationship at first, but eventually he touches every persons heart in someway to show them the path to accepting his love for us. Repentance comes at times we least expect it! The movies is a feel good movie yes, so the critics will never site this as a good movie but it was and I'm sure if you watch it you will too!

I'm starting to think people who write reviews on this site don't actually see the movies and let their biases put something down on blast. This makes the reason why some reviews tends to be negative. Not sure why that is when a majority of movies hit the streaming service these days at the same time they hit theaters. Otherwise they'll hit in a few weeks but point is, no reason to lie about something. This movie is available to stream on Peacock and it's pretty decent. In fact, it's good enough to to hit theaters and is far more entertaining than a lot of what's been released as of the date of this writing.

The story revolves around a young girl sent to live with her aunt and uncle after the death of her mother. The family is God fearing and active members of their community church. At first there's some resistance here on her part as this is all new to her but with some encouragement from a higher calling and bonding with her cousin, she becomes the newest member of the church choir. This is pretty much a simple story of inner city kids using their talents to praise God. Soon they find themselves competing for a national choir competition and along the way the ride was actually pretty good. I'd say this movie is along the lines of Sister Act and Pitch Perfect where there's complex characters we actually care about and want to see them succeed. There's some decent music here that I found myself getting into and good story about family and friendship. As of 4/7/23, it's streaming on Peacock and I have to say, it's a lot better than some of the movies in theaters at this very moment. Plus, this is a guaranteed good time.

I was really happy to find a gospel movie on a mainstream platform, but there's way too much cussin in this movie for it to be Christian. I don't understand why you would have a ton of cuss words in a Christian movie. As a Christian, I don't listen to things like that in movies or music or in any other way. Not all black people cuss and not all black people want to hear that. The acting and plot were decent but I really could have done without all the sexual innuendos. I try to support black projects but this one made it difficult only because of the filth that could have easily been left out.

I love a good African American movie, especially with great vocals - but very different from the usual gospel music we hear in church. Don't get me wrong, I like the twist when they changed some "bangers" into gospel music, but it felt more like a hip hop movie... if my church sung these typa songs, you'd see me attempt to break dance rather than praising. The movie showcased what we have in the usual church; the gossipers, the haters and, the sinners; it's sad but true because Christian's are not perfect, no one is. Overall it was a good movie, but I wish we got to see Chloe be more vulnerable with God.

Gospel Pitch Perfect.

It was a cute movie. Great soundtrack and fun cast. Girl is forced to move to ATL. Hates it. But her perky cousin starts bringing her to church/choir group. They're the underdogs and their captain won't allow their style to change.

As they get to their first comp the Captain decides to switch teams to their biggest competitor in an off attempt to sabotage them. New girl starts free styling about god and boom they place and move on.

Obviously it keeps going from there.

Definitely give it a watch. Like I stated the soundtrack is good. Quavo had a small part in it but not too bad.
