Great movie and breakout performance by Blake Rayne
To see a movie that doesn't bash Christianity and a young man that doesn't allow himself to get corrupted by the music scene or compromise his moral values was both refreshing and inspiring. A great movie for our youth who are constantly being bombarded by the opposite message from the world of drugs sex and rock n roll.
Scripture and those who live a life of faith are respected, those who fall into sin are not denigrated but sin is just shown for what it is. Marriage is uplifted as the main character remains faithful to his wife in a world of music which we have been told in every rock and roll movie that has come before, that that is impossible.
The film is filled with original music sang by the protagonist who himself had been an Elvis impersonator and did an amazing job singing and acting, that made you ask; who is this guy, where did he come from? He truly nailed the part down and did a great job that I wouldn't be surprised if it was a breakout roll that opens the door for many future films. I enjoyed watching him and the rest of the cast very much. Also Joe Pantoliano playing against type as he plays a sweet very supportive boss, very different than what we've been conditioned to expect which is the mean foul mouthed cynical characters that usually occupy the parts of bosses, army sergeants, or the sidekick buddies. Watching this movie leaves you thinking that there's hope for humanity.
Movies like this that uphold values and morals are unique in the multiplex today.
I hope people will support this movie with their movie dollar so we can encourage filmmakers and send a message to Hollywood that there is a market and a need for inspirational faith based films that uplift the human spirit!
