I did not see it, but I have found that some of those Christian movies with great messages are simply bad movies.
This was a high budget, well done, well acted movie.
I agree. I've seen a few that start out well enough, then out of the blue one of the characters remarks about having accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
I think it would make better sense to create good stories containing admirable characters who just happen to be Christian. These would at least displace some of the Hollywood crap with the mean, crazy, busybody Christian characters.
