A brief review of "Facing the Giants": an unsatisfactory independent film

Lonzo 2022-04-21 09:03:05

Facing the Giants is a religious film funded by a group of Baptists. There are many audiences who like this movie very much, and there are many audiences who reject this movie. Combined with the background of its birth, this film is really moving. However, with the filming concept faithful to the "Bible", the style of the film becomes very strange. If viewers who have no religious complex and do not understand the special status of religion in American society watch this film, I believe they will be shocked by the inexplicable plot.
Compared with other films of the same type, this film puts more emphasis on the spiritual effect. The spiritual effect is definitely there. This is a movie that externalizes the power of belief. If you want me to say, there is nothing wrong with it. Every self-conscious person has a God in his heart. This God is not another God, but people are often afraid and dare not follow the God in their hearts. What are you afraid of, what are you afraid of. The film probably tells the story.
The film includes actors, and all aspects of filming and production are unsatisfactory. After all, it is not produced by professionals.

    Suddenly, a certain coach beat chicken blood to create a god, and the masses actually opened up the two lines of Ren Du at the same time. Ok i don't believe in god
