Movie Reviews of The Second Chance

Movie Review: Simply Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars

I love movies. I watch all types of movies. I am also a full-out warrior for Jesus Christ. I despise Hollywood and it's self-serving, propagandizing products. And yet, I still watch the movies. About 70% of the time, I end up feeling like I've just wasted another two hours of my life. Crash, the movie that took a lot of Oscars this year, was a good movie, not a great movie, but a good movie. This movie, The Second Chance, was about the same subject, but was actually worthy of an Academy Award. Will it get it? Of course not. People can't see past their prejudices against the Christian religion to see this excellent movie for what it is; a much better depiction of bigotry in our society today, in the secular world but more sorrowfully, in the churches. I have also watched a lot of Christian movies, and while I try to be patient and give them a fair chance, this one stood alone as a movie I would put up against the likes of Crash or any other movie Hollywood puts out. Do yourself a favor, open your mind and heart and give this movie a chance.

Movie Review: Great movie - and NOT just for strong Christians
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie revolves around 2 ministers who grew up (and still live in) in very different worlds. Forced to work together, they eventually find that they aren't that different after all.

As many people have said, there is cussing in this movie. That is reality - especially in certain neighborhoods. The important thing in this movie is its messages.

One of the things that I have always liked about Micheal W. Smith's music is that it gets its point across about living a good and positive life, without using too much rhetoric and preaching. In doing so, Michael relates his message to many more people. In my opinion, this is true of this movie as well.

Movie Review: There should be more films like this one.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a very enjoyable film. I am a Michael W. Smith fan who was able to see the film in the theatre, and I found it to be very enjoyable. It conveyed a very important message while remaining lighthearted at moments. It is the kind of film that leaves you thinking for days and that you would not be ashamed to see with your family! Frankly, it seemed more like a PG than a PG-13 rating to me, and I was very relieved! I am so tired of movies filled with filthy content. This one was a breath of fresh air! I am very excited about the release of the DVD. The performances were strong.

Movie Review: A GOOD LESSON FOR ALL
Summary: 5 Stars

THE SECOND CHANCE is a movie that many can benefit from. It's not overly preachy, yet is faith based. I believe it's a great story for non-Christians, as well as Christians.

I believe THE SECOND CHANCE is a wonderful story that needs to be seen by those working in a church and Christians that have gone the way of power and money, forgetting what it's really all about.

We should all be serving God, and that means serving His people. Getting are hands "dirty" so to speak.

Live your life as Jesus did.

Movie Review: An Absolute Must-See!
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this movie!! The talent in this film really shows through, the filmography is excellent, and the story is gripping! I would recommend it to anyone! (Anyone who thinks Michael W. Smith is just a good singer, wait til you've seen him act! You won't believe it's his first film! And the other actors are great as well!)
Not only is the movie appealing and well made; it also has a valuable message for the church today. I think any viewer would agree. (Be sure to check out the bonus music video from Smitty too! It's an awesome song!)
