God's Not Dead Reviews

...acting was mediocre but all the lead characters I believe did their best in portraying the roles they had been tasked to play.

| Original Score: 4.5/10 | Nov 20, 2020

It's a film by Christians for Christians.

| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 9, 2020

The film wants to use science to prove the existence of God while also debunking all science and discrediting all scientists.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 21, 2019

The result is a film that is terribly one-sided and in many ways off-putting despite the promise to provoke debate.

| Mar 5, 2019

Its ineptitude at depicting recognisable human behavior is matched only by its ineptitude at following any known rules of narrative.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 3, 2018

God's Not Dead, despite excellent production values, leaves scant room for the imagination or mystery. It is a contrived, implausible Sunday school lesson...God, whom people seem to think needs defending, deserves better from the artistic community.

This is awful filmmaking, from trite writing of one-dimensional characters to even triter (which spell-check is telling me is not a word) dialogue.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Dec 12, 2015

Will likely get a mildly, if unenthusiastic, passing grade from its target audience, but for the non-believers, it's going to prove a tough and condescending experience.

| Original Score: 4/10 | May 27, 2015

Has a decided agenda but still manages to be entertaining

| Original Score: 6/10 | May 11, 2014

Lambasts reason, and celebrates Christianity unabashedly, which is a shame, because it has an opportunity to really challenge its target audience.

| May 7, 2014

Continually, I bemoan the fact that viewers of faith - and I'm among them - are under-served when it comes to high-quality faith-based films.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Apr 25, 2014

Ban this sick filth.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 17, 2014

The prostelytizing concept immediately loses credibility because no teacher at a legitimate academic institution would make that demand, augmenting it with threat of failure.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Apr 15, 2014

Teen-friendly, faith-based movie is heavy on dogma.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 11, 2014

Despite the campus setting, little about the story is intelligently designed.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 8, 2014

Dubious religious content aside, God's Not Dead is, above all, a dismal piece of filmmaking.

| Original Score: F | Mar 29, 2014

Any just God would likely recoil from the ham-fisted and spurious defense put forth in this film.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Mar 27, 2014

It's not just bad filmmaking; it's bad Christianity.

| Mar 26, 2014

Even by the rather lax standards of the Christian film industry, God's Not Dead is a disaster.

| Original Score: D- | Mar 26, 2014

God may not be dead, but I'd be willing to wager this movie at least gave him a faint wave of nausea.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 25, 2014
