Movie Reviews of A Shepard of Pure Heart
Movie Review: Saw it a different way
Summary: 3 Stars
This appears to be the third review of this movie and I'm afraid I just saw it a different way.
There is a good story here and I know it does match the trial that many pastors go through. The main character does match the title as he is certainly a man of pure heart, motivation and character. We would all do well to see the need of our fellow man and respond.
I can see that the film was acted, produced and otherwise put together on a small budget and some small budget films come together and are pleasing to the senses. As a matter of fact, I've seen many Christian films and drama and skits that have been very good and mirroring a professional production .
If we're to be perfectly honest, this film just doesn't get there. The acting is so choppy and pronounced that it resembles no human interaction I have ever seen. The characters meant to carry this movie are, quite frankly, outworked by the supporting cast of kids.
Unfortunately the movie also correctly portrays the "social gospel"; folks attending churches and giving offerings to be seen and appreciated in the eyes of men.
We need many more Minister Upton's (main character) to seek the pleasure of the King and not the respect of men. For that alone, I offer three stars.
