Monumental: Restoring America as the Land of Liberty (2014)
Excellent and Very Thought-Provoking Documentary
Greatly researched and thought provoking documentary from Kirk Cameron (Fireproof, Growing Pains). Cameron does not like the dictators like Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin who were anti-Christs, and did not want people to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. He states that what makes America great, is the love of a God...after all, it states on all of our currency "In God We Trust", and all good parents should want to raise their children in a God loving, Christian world free of violence, rape, sodomy, incest, animal-brutalizing, and vulgar language, right? Well, in order to fully understand the freedoms that Christian Americans still do have, from the origins that all Americans should know about, Cameron travels to England and begins a journey to find out about the Puritans who started it all when they did their battle with the anti-Christs of their time: the brutal King and Queen of England. He sheds light on why prayer and Bible reading should still be in the classroom, if we are to proclaim that the United States of America is a Christian nation, and he also backs a winning argument on why Faith always, always means pointing to Heaven, where God reigns supreme. A+++ Thank you, Mr. Cameron, for giving us a clear understanding of what it means to be a Christian fighting for our civil liberties.
The Second Chance (2006)
Excellent and Very Well Directed Film!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie (with substance)! The acting from both Michael W. Smith, and Jeff Obafemi Carr was superb. I was very impressed with the work Steve Taylor did to direct this film. It begins with the role of Ethan Jenkins (Michael W. Smith) and Jake Sanders (Jeff Obafemi Carr) running an inner city ministry in Tennessee. White and well-off Ethan is a musician overseeing the suburban mega-church his father ministers, as well as to the Second Chance church in Tennessee, and Jake is a black recent-convert who ministers to gang members, teen mothers, and drug addicts of the Second Chance with Pastor Ethan.
The story is very rich and realistic, and will certainly hold your interest to the very end! A+++
Ragamuffin (2014)
Not an Accurate Portrayal of a Christian Musician
Next time have someone produce a film that didn't do work for Mad T.V.! Christians should have directed and produced this film, not anti-Christians. If you are reading this review (and are a Christian serving the Lord), truly, DO NOT WATCH this trash! A new, Christian biopic has to be done about Rich Mullins -- one that loves Jesus and shines His love.
Absolutely, this is a chillingly ugly movie. This film does nothing to exemplify the true musician whose work shined with the wonderful, rich talent that God gave him. I was not at all impressed with the screen time given to a light bulb swinging in front of an abusive father, or to his struggle with alcohol. The film, in order to be truly great needed to portray Mullins working in the missionary field; a Mullins that taught piano (and other instruments to the Youth of his church) a Mullins who witnessed for the Lord and knew the struggles of others less fortunate that him.
Terrible, stinker of a raga-film!!! I give this film a 1 out of ten stars...and if this were a grade, an F-.
