This conflict helps supports the film as it contains several solid scenes. By the will of the protagonist and not outside interference his transformation comes across effectively. The protagonist is not condemned for being a nonbeliever rather is simply a man attempting to fix his marriage. It's for this acceptance that makes it Christian elements with corny dialogue forgivable. For the most part the characters act realistically even supporting our protagonist who's a nonbeliever. Characters with Christian views don't come across as preachy often conversing like regular people. For starter the positive message and bible verses are as clear as day, but not shoehorned in. Being a film based around a specific religion it's impossible to ignore the signatures it'll have positive messages, bible verses, characters with strong religious beliefs, and (often) an unrealistic view of how the real world functions. Here's a film that yes doesn't always successfully hides it's Christians views and metaphors, but present its beliefs through good protagonist and a story whose message delivery is known without it being forced upon nonbelievers.įireproof is about a firefighter using a 40-day experiment known as "The Love Dare" in an attempt to save his marriage. Films such as "C Me Dance", "To Save A Life", "Sunday School Musical", "Last Ounce of Courage", and "The Lion Judah" (three of which have earned zeroes) make up a majority of Christian films offerings that believe good morals excuses poor filmmaking. For every great Christian film like "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "The Ten Commandments" that transcends personal beliefs to provide viewers something to enjoy there are dozens that give the wrong impressions. So it’s no wonder the Kendrick brothers decided the time had come to produce a documentary called “Show Me the Father.” It opens in movie theaters nationwide this weekend.I've never been much of a believer in finding faith.in Christians films that is. Another role that showcased the character of the Kendrick brothers’ dad was the actor who portrayed Kirk Cameron’s father in the movie “Fireproof.” The Kendrick brothers’ movie “Courageous” was dedicated to challenging men to become better dads. The movie roles inspired by Larry Kendrick include the father of the young place kicker in “Facing the Giants” which was released 15 years ago. It’s not so much that we had to do that, but we have learned so much from our dad.” Whatever stage he was in in his life, even with his health facing multiple sclerosis, there’s a character that follows that in our movies. And there’s a good reason for that.Īccording to Alex Kendrick, “There’s a character in each of our films that was inspired by our real-life father, Larry Kendrick. If you’re looking for strong father-figure role models, you will find them in the Christian movies produced by the Kendrick brothers. Many of them have forgiven their dads from the father wounds that they’ve had and are able to step into the future with more faith and more hope in their hearts.”įormer Sheriff John Darr reflects on September 2001 trip to Ground Zero “And the people who have been watching (the film) have been experiencing healing and encouragement. Kendrick says there are five different stories woven together that talk about the perfect fatherhood of God. The true stories shared in this 90-minute documentary reveal some surprise endings that are charged with emotion. We show inspirational redemption taking place through fatherhood stories.” There’s so many people that were wounded or abandoned by their dads. Producer Stephen Kendrick says, “Using the lens of fatherhood, we have a message really for everybody. Their latest film is their first documentary. Their last one was “Overcomer” shot in Columbus in 2018 and released in August of 2019. Over the past 20 years, Alex and Stephen Kendrick have produced half a dozen faith-based movies. It’s called “Show Me the Father” and it takes an in-depth look at the critical role fathers play in our lives.
