I watched this with my 11.5 year old son and 10 year old daughter and we all loved it! My son even cried later in the story.
The story takes some unexpected turns. It's not boring! It has a great sense of humor and a few moments of genuine tension. Once scene is particularly shocking due to an unexpected outburst.
The leads are warm and engaging. A couple of secondary are miscast but nothing terrible. The ending is a bit sappy but it doesn't overstay it's welcome.
If you liked Wonder, Out of My Mind, or American Underdog this is definitely one to watch. There is some yelling, name calling, and PG language so probably for 8+ ages.

We walked out of this with my five kids and we all loved it (okay not sure about my 2.5 year old). It's a warm, funny, heart felt, and even teared up my wife and I at the end. I actually would enjoy watching it again tomorrow!
Everything here is top notch. It looks and feels like an instant classic. Everyone here is enjoying their time. To my surprise, the child actors carry some of the best moments in the movie. The oldest Herdsman girl is especially a treat.
It takes place in a word before cell phones and computers so it feels simpler but instantly familiar for today's families. The art direction, costumes, and set dressing instant transport you. The music isn't over done. The message is there but it never felt preachy to me like most "Christian" movies.
Overall I gave it an 8/10. I'll wait until I watch again to decide if it should be higher. Highly recommend!

If you enjoyed the first two Revelation Road films, the third is worth a watch. It's not a perfect movie, but it is a fun ride that explores the aftermath of the Day.
It's B movie fun with solid writing and solid performances all around especially from James Denton.
The only weaknesses are some of the vfx in one scene early on, but it really does get better the deeper in you get. Bradley Dorsey's performance as a redneck opportunist selling human meat as real meat is my favorite of his yet! But don't worry it's not graphic. It's safe for younger viewers 10+.
The action is on par with the first two. Some great brawls keep the pace brisk. It reminds me of the first Mad Max in many scenes.
Overall, if you enjoyed the first two or enjoy post-apocalyptic films this is worth the couple hours.
