Just watched "God's not dead" on Amazon. Terrific film!

This movie is wonderful. Because it is a message movie, it is a wee bit predictable.

But it is wonderful...unless you are an atheist.

Atheists are at risk of conversion.

Both are bad guys (and nicely so)...but both are influenced by the attraction of God.

Don't want to include a spoiler.

I saw it just the other night on dvd. Pretty good. I’d like to comment on it but now you’ve got me worried about spoliers.

I also saw it at the theater and it was wonderful! I love Kevin Sorbo, but not because of his role as Hercules but because of a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie The Santa Suit. Maybe I should have, but I did not anticipate the ending at all!

Movies dealing with the subject of God (The Creator of EVERYTHING) are difficult because the subject matter is too powerful to capture in words and story.

That is why the Bible is so Hemingway-esq...very minimalistic.

It's heavy stuff...not easily translated into every day language.

I think everyone knows how God films end up. So perhaps a spoiler won’t be much of a problem.

I also was pleasantly surprised at how well done it was.
