Engaging
PrabhuKT17 December 2019
The fact that this Indie is able to engage the audiences is a success right there. Casting could have been better and character dynamics are untrue and pretentious. Apart from that, a lot of positives to talk about. The emotion mainly is engaging and drives to the end of the movie. Greatly for mature audiences.

Disgusting

What if ethics violations in medicine are a plot? This movie. Really offensive on every level for anyone of moral character. If you have even a passing familiarity with end of life care it should be obvious why this movie is irredeemably evil.

Horrible film.

Warning: Spoilers
A film about how a Christian women makes her friend dying all about her. To clarify, not the friend, the Christian women. The plot is literally "you're dying but this is about ME and I'm going to preach to you as you slip from this mortal coil", the end!

A truly horrible film about a horrible and selfish person who the film thinks is good.

"Harass the dying until they join your religion!" -This Movie
frpwmnb14 April 2022
The question I'm dying to ask the People involved in this movie is, "would you think this movie was cool if it was a muslim person using their job to try and manipulate a dying person into also becoming a muslim? How about a jewish person? What about a scientologist or a theosophist? My guess is that I couldn't go anywhere online without seeing a million posts from crazy zealots losing their mind over it and, yet, they produced this abomination. Wake up and realize that imposing your imaginary friend and its bronze-age ideals on everybody you meet is not only a lost cause, it's an immoral one. People like those associated with this abhorrent film are one of the few reasons non-christians think it might be nice for a fiery afterlife of eternal punishment and suffering to exist after all.

Moving and inspirational

It is worth watching. Jenny has not forgotten her childhood friend and did what best she can help. It is not offensive in any manner and its a story of two friends one facing life-taking sickness and the other going beyond her comfort zone to offer love and support.

I can't understand the title justifies the story but I feel it does the description beneath: Jenny is a committed Christian who lovingly serves patients as a hospice nurse. But when her unbelieving friend Autumn goes on hospice care Jenny is confronted with the weakness of her own faith. Now she must learn what it will take to love her friend as Christ would.

True to life and inspiring

I had an opportunity to watch this movie this weekend. It was excellent. I have worked in hospice for 12yrs, this movie accurately portrayed the journey of a patient...........and a friend when they have to face a tragic disease together. It also accurately documents the struggle of an individual having to chose between her faith and her job. I was very inspired by the compassion and the character of this movie!

Not a typical "Faith Based Film"
gwp6042328 July 2018
This is a film about "real life".

It's a story about two friends that have lost touch with each other and were brought back together and how they dealt with one of life tragedies.

One friend is positive and optimistic while the other is just the opposite. The struggles they face are challenging and the result is not what you would expect.

Viewing this film was refreshing because it wasn't "Typical"

Very Moving and Thoughtful
ken-chastain26 December 2017
Why do bad things happen to good people? And, how can we be at peace about our loved ones and their eternity? These are just two of the questions raised by "Redemption Way", a 2017 release by Co-Directors Dan Gremley and Brad Podowski, from an original screenplay by Podowski. The film centers around Jenny Payne, a nurse whose life is turned upside down by the loss of loved ones, unresolved issues in her marriage and a major dilemma when her career comes into conflict with her devotion to her God.

Jenny is beautifully played by Kaitlyn Griggs, and the pacing and the interplay of the films core characters is just right. I watched this film with my family and we were all very moved by the tenderness of the story and its message of trust in Jesus--even when it's hard and may not make sense to the world around us. What we learn from "Redemption Way" is that God is greater than our fears, our losses and the unanswered questions we all face in life.

Truthful and Real

Brad Podowski's film "Redemption Way," brings to life the issues of hope versus despair. This film deals with the topics of love, sacrifice, and friendship, in a realistic way. It is truly engaging from beginning to end.

This film is poignant, emotional and very well done. The story and characters are very easy to relate to and real. The directing is great. The film is really riveting and interesting. It really tackles the question of friendship, faith, values and choices. I think everyone can find meaning by watching this story. This is a must see film!
