Disappointing!

Warning: Spoilers
Disappointing movie! God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness has three parts. Well part 3 starts out slow but then bang a fire etc. Too much personal dialogue, and self searching. There is character development which is redeveloping what the viewer already knows! Beginning third I give a 5 out of ten! The middle third of the movie is interesting, which shows how the University sees the Church offensive, this movie never asks if any other organization was in the same circumstances would their would be different treatment? A new character is introduced which is a lawyer. The lawyer is pastor Dave's brother the relationship is interesting. The arguments, the legal and personal escalation is entertaining. Build up and build up for the climax. Middle is 7 out of 10! The bottom third is an example of identity politics and cultural Marxism at work. People get hurt and the creation of a manufactured Belfast situation. The pastor has an existential crisis and goes pacifist. Turn the other cheek means in old Jewish custom the second time you do this we have a problem to resolve. What happens here is no resolution. Why do some groups get pushed around? Why can people get their way by screaming and yelling with out asking what is the point? What are the facts? People tend to push around with what they can get away with! There is no church any where. Compilation works is the answer! The point of the law suit was the principle, God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness has NO answer on if what the University did was wrong? 3 out 10 for the ending. 5 stars.
