Featured review
Still trying to figure out what this was made for
This movie was a waste of 1.5hrs.
The things I've read about it being an "evangelical edit" of a mormon movie make perfect sense. There are no in-church scenes, no teaching moments and no discussion of who God is and what He expects.
I have to assume the aforementioned things were either in the mormon edition but would not have translated to an evangelical film, or they were never in the movie. Either way, this edition pretty much demonstrated that mormonism is not Christianity. For the Christian, repentance and faith in Christ is required. Reconciliation is sought because of a heart changed by Christ, and out of a desire to bring that change to others. The motivations of Colton's change were absent other than he just felt the life he had been leading was wrong. There was no discussion about why he really felt he needed to change. There was a lot of prayer, but no discussion on what the prayer was about or to whom.
Jaycee Lynn was almost believable. Colton went from the kid brother in "Sixteen Candles" to Wally Cleaver.
This film was devoid of any spiritual content. It seemed the filmmakers wanted to tell me something about changing my life... I'm just not certain what.
