Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com It's your standard warm, fuzzy tale of Christian love that plays to the church set in ways that are hardly objectionable, even as it plays those notes straight down the middle with little finesse. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 7, 2024 Full Review Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal Sound of Hope, like its predecessor, is a big-hearted film made with a homespun sincerity that comes as a refreshing surprise at the multiplex these days, though it has the gauzy, simplistic feel of a cable-TV movie. Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom It never allows its characters to question their faith or even lose patience. It glosses over the challenges of raising severely traumatized children. But it is a sincere, thoughtful effort that could get an audience beyond the core faith community. Rated: B Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Matthew Turner Action Reloaded The script may be overly simplistic, but this is a decently made biopic whose heart is clearly in the right place. If you’re looking for an undemanding feelgood drama that might make you shed a tear or two, this has got you covered. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Robert Roten Laramie Movie Scope The acting performances are outstanding. The story is formulaic, but it is very inspiring. It is refreshing to see a movie which champions the positive, healing aspects of faith, instead of weaponizing faith for political power and divisiveness. Rated: B+ Jul 23, 2024 Full Review Bill Arceneaux Moviegoing with Bill Truly the stuff of cinematic proportions, even with the speaking-to-the-pews thing - though maybe others will listen too. Rated: 3/5 Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
