The premise of this movie was catching, and I enjoyed the setup. However, the pacing sorta threw me off. It felt rushed. I dont mind if a movie is 2 hours considering its okay to do.
I still felt I was giving introductory information. By the time we were to understand the characters, scenes and other parts, the movie ends.
I really disliked how the pastors character didnt have enough backstory to give us reasons for his treatment towards his sons. It is evident he had issues from unfulfilled dreams and other things.
Some of the acting felt cookie cutter its like okay that is expected and predictable.
Overall I enjoyed watching the movie and I just wish they would take their time and not rush it.
For Anthony Evans character "Royce" in the beginning, I felt it was the same person...Anthony.
But when we get further into it I feel Royce.

The pacing was too fast amongst other things.
I love the cast but...
The movie itself was a poor representation of the church, nobody is perfect, yes but it was obvious from the beginning that their father made some mistakes that wasn't properly addressed later, a man of principle?? We did not see that...the movie felt rushed at the end because of the length and too much emphasis on some scenes.
I love the cast though, Rotimi embodied the role...and Jonathan McReynolds, for a rookie, he did well or maybe I am just bias cos I love him?.
Disappointing
You knew he would get caught up in some foolishness but this movie makes it seem like everyone in leadership in the church is grimy and that's not true. I don't like these kind of movies where the focus is so negative and there's a lot of sleeping around. A shame because it could've been better.
