Low budget, semi-religious snooze-fest with some good acting but a lot of over the top characters. Cannot understand all the scores of 10.

Yawn
Excellent Story
This was a real l y well done story nd script. Most of the acting was very good. Particularly, the Author, the Keeper and the star roles were acted very well. Unfortunately, the cinematography and or editing made this movie seem amateurish. The concept was great, the dilogue was so smart/witty at certain points. I really loved the characters and the story from beginning to end. It was simply dissapointing to see some of the best scenes poorly shot and some sections were so poorly edited. It would be awesome to have this story remade with no script changes, but with a more seasoned cinematographer, director and editor.
Decent message but it was just painful to watch
I liked the pathos in the movie and the intentions the makers had were clearly quite decent. Now I get it is a low budget production, but the dialogues were lengthy (the same point was often made few times in the same scene), plot (together with the "twists") either predictable or underwhelming. A lot of what I saw in the movie just did not make any sense. There were moments which were intended to be funny, but my forehead was just sore from all the facepalms. I feel sorry for criticising a Christian movie, but honestly I wish I had not watched it...
