Moving in mysterious ways
8 October 2016
If you like country&western music with a little bit of the gospel thrown in than Like A Country Song should fill your needs. The film is not too tightly wrapped together in terms of direction and editing.

Billy Ray Cyrus country star and now better known as the father of Miley Cyrus plays a washed up country&western singer who after a terrible family tragedy left his family to seek solace as an alcoholic. He succeeds in becoming an alcoholic, how much solace he got is open to interpretation. Wife Jennifer Taylor told their son who grew up to be Joel Smallbone that dad had died.

Wouldn't you know it, the kid grows up to be an aspiring country singer and reunites with Cyrus under unusual circumstances. As this is a Christian film it all works out under the auspices of a Deity that moves in mysterious ways.

The music score is the best thing the film has going for it. The film does lack direction, the players are sincere enough.

For church audiences only.
