Jesus Revolution Reviews
Get thee behind me!
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 19, 2023
At first glance, Jesus Revolution is an inspiring, heartwarming watch, but it gives a seamlessly joyful look at a movement with a harmful past, in a way that feels like a slap in the face in the year of our Lord 2023.

Although there are very frank discussions about the nature of faith, it doesn't feel as preachy or heavy-handed as a lot of these films do, which to me personally makes them off-putting.

Unfortunately, despite the interesting history, the film itself is a dry, scattered slog, neutered of all the thorny, contradictory details of the real story.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 25, 2023
A gently told story preaching to the converts, assuming that evangelical Christianity is unassailably the answer without considering this particular form of worship may not be the answer for all.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 24, 2023
Nothing in this evangelical film about a short-lived religious movement taking root in late Sixties Southern California... is open to chance, much less to any interpretation other than an unequivocal One.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 23, 2023
One of the most appealing faith-based big-screen entertainments in a while, polished and persuasive without getting too preachy.

It’s easy to be dismissive of the moviemaking, in what often feels like a church production of Hair. Other times it felt like watching an infomercial hawking something that already has billions of people buying what they’re selling.
