pretty nice
I was real interested to see this film. The presence in cast of Kelsey Grammer and Jonathan Roumie was the main premise , like, in same measure, the subject.
But, against beautiful work of Joel Courtney, I was not exactly convince or seduce or enthuasistic about Jesus Revolution. No doubts, being Greek Orthodox, I do not feel very well Neoprotestant believes and their expressions.
For me, this movie, off course good intentioned, remains a sort of salad, mixing family troubles, romance, Christianity, conflicts, enthusiasm, preaches , miracles, selfishness, the hippy spirit and the American christian movement of 1970.
Maybe, too much .
But, off course, I am more than subjective. Good points- the hard effort of actors to give credibity to their characters and the scenes with Jonathan Roumie and Paras Patel. - mm-39 - 5 November 2023
I did not want to see this movie, but was surprised!
Jesus Revolution I did not want to see this movie, but was surprised! Well directed, crafted, and acted. I guess the trailer/commercial rubbed me the wrong way. Frasers actor has a strong performance as a bewildered pastor wondering about the young hippie generation? Ask how do I reach such a generation show me a Christian hippie. The man walking around like Jesus and the pastor's daughter brings the hippie home which starts the Jesus Revolution was so human. True stories are stranger than fiction. The side story of the lost young man who becomes a pastor after running into the Hippie was critical part of the message which asks the questions of God's plan. The lost looking for something because of the emptiness a generation feels. Interesting, paced well, with good character development makes Jesus Revolution a must watch. 8 stars.
