Moviegoers are saying
This 1980s-set Christian rock drama about a pastor's son torn between a battle of the bands and a marathon has left audiences bewildered by its ambitious but deeply flawed execution. While featuring real Christian rock band Petra, the film's wooden acting, nonsensical plot logistics, and basic filmmaking mistakes have made it a cautionary tale that even makes the Kendrick Brothers look masterful by comparison.

    The Directing, writing and acting are so bad that at times it feels like a parody.

    Much worse than I anticipated. The crossover between Christian programming and ‘80s sports/music/evil land developer movie is a match made in cheesy heaven.

    Aug. 30, 2026 - *At The Theater* As a fan of Back to the Future, I noticed this poster in the hallway of my theater and thought it looked similar to the scene in Back to the Future where Marty is playing guitar on stage and says, "Maybe you all aren't ready for that yet,…

    Good story line in general and excellent guitar and music later on. Totally worth it!! Some overacting but basically good values & story
