Clevercell Very disappointing...

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Tami Jones (tami_loves_noles) I enjoyed this film. The story centers on a boy who begins to question many things in his life and family and whether God exists. The theme is universal in that nearly all childhood beliefs are shattered at some point either through real proof or circumstances that seem to disprove one belief or another.There are several sub-plots utilized to flesh out the characters, many of whom either show no evidence of a belief in God, even some that attend church, or a belief without a practice of God's love. But they do believe in celebrating a strange occurrence that occurred in the small town in the recent past.The acting is strong from several participants and the story moves along at a swift pace. The outcome demonstrates that intelligence and a mind for the sciences does not have to exist at the exclusion of faith in the unseen and difficult to prove.

doughbaron As someone who doesn't believe in God but is very sympathetic to religious viewpoints, I like to watch Christian films to gain perspectives I wouldn't normally encounter. Unfortunately, this film antagonizes science and agnosticism in such a way that it feels alienating if you don't share the same perspective as the filmmakers. I know a lot of religious people view doubt as an intrinsic part of growing up, but Oliver's questioning of God and science are portrayed as an ominous slide towards hell, and the forces that influence his final reconciliation with one side feel weak and unexplained. In the end, it felt like a hollow examination of a very deep subject.
