Movie Reviews of The Apostle
Movie Review: One of my favorite's
Summary: 5 Stars
What can I saw? I love this movie. Always have. It reminds me of the old time churches. The music and Preaching too. I am a Preacher's kid so I guess that speaks for me. My favorite part was when Sonny moved back home with his Mother and he was having a shouting match with God but he was the only one shouting and the Mother's neighbor calls on the phone and ask her who was that man at her house yelling. The Mom explains to her neighbor why her Son was yelling then hangs up the phone while her neighbor is still talking and just smiles while laying in her bed. she was so happy to have her Son home even with the mess in his life she supported her son. This movie is worth seeing.Movie Review: A second chance
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time I watched The Apostle I was so shocked by the movie's violent turning point that it left a bad taste in my mouth. However, the second time I saw it I was prepared for this and was able to enjoy what makes this movie great--a sincere sense of a time and place for the charismatic culture it portrays as well as believable, funny, honest characters, many of whom were not actors. I think Duvall really wanted to do justice to a character most people in Hollywood would stereotype as either crazy or perfect. Bonus: June Carter Cash is the perfect choice for his mother.Movie Review: A Remarkable Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely loved this movie. It was a labor of love on the part of Robert Duvall, who wrote, directed, starred in, and funded its production. It is one of the few religious movies I have seen that do not present Christians and Christianity in an unfavorable light. That is not to say that the chief character, a pentacostal preacher named "Sonny," is perfect or faultless--far from it. He is, however, rather than being a fake or a phony, the genuine article--a man of faith truly sold out to God--lock, stock, and barrel. I highly recommend this production. Don't miss it!Movie Review: The Apostle! Glory! The best ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie got very little publicity and was actually recommended to me by a minister. I rented it and watched it over and over again. For those of us who grew up in the South and share stories of revivals and tent meetings this brings back a lot of memories. It's a great story of personal redemption tinged with pain, sadness and a little humor. You'll find yourself wanting to get on your feet and do a little "shoutin' and singin'". Robert Duvall is totally believable in this role as the evangelist.Movie Review: Don't get tired of wathching this one!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is so great on so many levels. The acting of Robert Duvall is incredible. I recently started going to a Pentecostal church and seeing the movie now affected me on a much deeper level than before when I wasn't involved in the church at all. This movie really shows our humanity/sinful nature but it also shows us a celebration of God's AMAZING GRACE.
This movie is fantastic! Duvall would have got my vote for the Oscar
