A Must See!!!

I had the opportunity to see this movie recently at the Tri State Theater Convention in Mississippi. I was very impressed by the quality and message of this independent film. I met Zac, as well as a couple of the actors from the movie. I am co owner of a theater in Tennessee and we are working very closely with Zac to show the film, and what an honor it will be when we fill the seats and premier it. These guys are operating on a limited budget, so help them out by going to your local theaters and requesting that they contact Zac about showing this movie. It is well worth the time to sit and watch it. Check it out!!!

Already did it. I live in Iowa, Josh is my brother (he plays Jason) I hope that our local theatre brings it in, even for a one night showing. I emailed them so I hope it happens.

I saw it a few weeks ago, and I think your advice fits. This movie was amazing!

I will take your advice and watch this movie. I didn't know it was a religious movie and that initially made me want to ignore it. I fail to see what good message a theistic drama could present that could not be accomplished by a more secular and realistic storyline. I'll watch wit has open a mind as possible.

Yawn....and look who is the FIRST person to ring their hate to this forum. SURPRISE!! (Well, actually NOT a surprise. Quite common actually.)

Reported you for hate speech & making discrimatory & unnecessary comments.

Have a beautiful day & God bless you, even though you obviously hate us Christians.

I managed about 7 minutes of it and nothing whatsoever happened.Had I realised it was going to be all 'God bothery' I'd have saved myself 7 minutes.Stinks of really bad daytime TV movie and Jesus.

So, more-or-less, just sit back, shut up, & not defend my beliefs at all, when they are belittled by another....right?? If I had been the one to first trash anothers belief, I wouldn't have been surprised when they retaliated....nor would it have been their fault for doing so, if I had started the spewing.

But I didn't, and I don't. But I WILL make my feelings known about a discriminatory remark when it's quite obviously aimed towards the values I chose to follow. And if someone had trashed YOUR beliefs, I would have agreed with you 100% if you had made your feelings known....even if we don't share the same ones.

As far as the last part you say is unnecesary, I'm secure enough with my chosen belief that I'm not scared to put it in writing sometimes. And I don't see why anyone SHOULD be scared to do that. But simply trashing ANOTHER doesn't fit that description....it's immature, childish, & unnecesary.

There is nothing discriminatory about a person having a different opinion than yours.

This is halarious, last time I check this was to share opinions about the movie now how luckdog feels about their religion or how he feels about what others feel about Christianity.
And all 2000 said was another christian movie blah blah which guess what when it doesnt say in the subject it's religious stuff someone has the right to express the fact they were upset at the fact that they didnt know it was about religion, because they ended up spending their money on something that they would have known wasnt of their enjoyment if it had stated so.
You luckdog were the one that went off the wall and made totally bull comments, and sorry but stating that he feels a christian moving is boring is his right of speech on this chat forum it was not bombing your religion AT ALL, BUT what did you WAS. Your rediculous comment that it's expected from one of his religion and your bogus god bless comment you could have kept it all to yourself. It's called thinking before you speak and thats obviously NOT what you did, you claim being Christian well the first rule of your religion would be forgiveness now WOULDNT IT? Any Christian I know wouldnt want you around because you'd rather bash someone for expressing their feelings rather then saying I'm sorry thats how you feel, but maybe you should give it a chance first. So go back to your church and study some more, and learn how to turn the other cheek... And no I'm not Christian, I was raised Catholic and now I am Athiest but that does NOT mean that I do not believe that any human being has the righ to believe what they wish because it gives them a form of hope, and everyone deserves that.
And 1 last thing 2000, some Christian movies are actually quite good... personally I prefer the ones that arent so in your face trying to rub the religion on you but thats my preferance as I have that right.
Now can we PLEASE get back to what this darn forum is for? The movie maybe?
Thanks Bye...

Hey There, 23

Very well articulated, your thoughts are very similar to my own. I am a non-believer, but,I truly,truly respect the beliefs of all persons,with the exception of the fanatical,get in the face idiotics.This happens to be an opinion web site,in which, people from the planet give their opinions.When one does NOT give an opinion in line with yours,you luckdoggy, in reporting 2000, became the hater,an immature person with many years of life experiences to go.

Just my thoughts on this,because I think "someone" forgot, this is a MOVIE REVIEW page, YOUR opinion of a flic and totally senseless in life's progression to get ones panties all tangled up.
