Ever After: A Cinderella Story

Reviewed on Aug 20 2008

This is a beautiful movie for adults and children alike.  I particularly liked the fact that the prince was a benevolent ruler and could administer divine justice.  This film also shows the tragedy of jealousy, greed and evil manipulation by those who claim to know God but seek their own desires.  

  I also liked the fact that at the end of the story the prince and his highest spiritual complement overcome all of the obstacles against them and...

Ex Machina

Reviewed on Sep 23 2015

This is an excellent artsy futuristic film that shows the talent of Oscar Isaac, as he can play a mild-mannered mayor or a macho crazed scientist, and I'm sure anything he wants to play, with extreme talent and believability. Alicia Vikander plays a robot that is sexually attractive. The story has many twists and keeps your interest throughout the whole film, with an exciting and well-thought-out ending. I wouldn't miss this one. But it's only for avant-garde film goers. Director Alex ...

Extraordinary Measures

Reviewed on Feb 22 2010

Sometimes a movie comes along that gives you hope for humanity. This is the true story of parents who try to raise large sums of money to help Dr. Robert Stonehill (played by Harrison Ford) to continue research to cure a rare genetic disorder. The parents have 2 children (a boy and girl), pre-teens who are dying of this rare disease, and the parents determination (as well as the doctors) to find not only a cure but to fight against the system of bureaucracy in the healthcare system that ...

Faith Like Potatoes

Reviewed on Jun 13 2011

A true story of an account of a South African farmer, Angus Buchan, who has a faith-based experience with Jesus Christ and becomes an evangelist and builds an orphanage on his land in South Africa and works with the Zulus, where he brings together white and black South Africans. It is a story of faith and manifestation. This is not a typical, mediocre Christian production but (although not a high-budget film) is better directed and acted. By Affirm Films; Frank Rautenbach, Jeanne Neilson.

Fidel

Reviewed on Dec 05 2011

This documentary by Estela Bravo will give you a true perspective of Fidel Castro like you've never seen before—the people who loved him, the countries he helped, the dignitaries he met, and the unbelievable demonization he received by the United States up until this very day. At one point, Castro sent 36,000 Cuban troops to Angola to help in their revolution. He never claimed to be a Communist (he believes in God) but did receive financial aid from Soviet Russia. He did practice ...

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within

Reviewed on Aug 12 2008

In watching this film I can see the future–animated stars and animated sequels.   The characters in this film were so real that you wondered sometimes if they were graphics at all.  The theme of the seven spirits reminded me of The URANTIA Book's teachings of the seven adjutant mind spirits in man and the five in animals.  

Again the battle between good and evil carries on–this time to other worlds of time and space where ...

For Greater Glory: The True Story of Cristiada

Reviewed on Jun 13 2012

This is a beautiful film that combines history, valor, courageousness, and spirituality together to deliver, I think, one of the best films of faith ever made. It shows how the Mexican people fought against the Federalities from 1926-1929 to protect their right to worship Jesus Christ. They called themselves the Cristiadas (which means "Christ The King"). Over 200,000 Mexican Catholics were killed in this four-year period. It also shows how other Mexicans—the Federalities (who were ...
