The Gospel Reviews
"The Gospel" is a clich-filled movie with low production values that says nothing significant about gospel music or its core values.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 14, 2007
While The Gospel's faith-laced dialogue might annoy non-Christians, the plot mostly explores themes of a universal nature. Recommended to members of any faith for the stirring, onscreen performance of Grammy-winner Yolanda Adams.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 25, 2007
A more-than-fine movie -- the kind that Christians who like to complain about Hollywood should support, and the kind that may appeal to people who aren't interested in church.

An appealing and entertaining package that makes up for whatever it lacks in perfectly polished sheen in exuberance and passion for its subject and message.

The soapy, cliche-ridden script aside, the picture is a technical mess of awkward framing and choppy editing that puts a dispiriting damper on all that uplifting music.

When the music isn't pounding in sanctified syncopation, the look and the dialogue of The Gospel are a lot like what you might see and hear on daytime 온라인카지노추천.
| Original Score: C | Oct 15, 2005
The Gospel loses focus, getting every bit as lost as its characters.

The lord may work in mysterious ways, but they shouldn't include bad acting and hack direction.

The whole thing smacks of an overpopulated 'daytime drama.'
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 12, 2005
It's a rich portrait of a church in transition.
| Original Score: B- | Oct 12, 2005
I loved the music and I admired its good intentions. But there are just too many sub-professional touches for me to recommend the film.

While the script and editing are flawed, The Gospel is still an evening's entertainment with heart and soul.
