When I sat down to watch this movie, I expected fast-paced action and intense drama based on the trailer and early buzz. What I got instead was a heartfelt and meaningful story that focused on family, redemption, and faith in Jesus. It was a pleasant surprise and a deeply enriching experience. I would highly recommend to all!

It’s hard not to feel a bit scammed, like you just bought a brand-new AAA game and found out most of its content is still locked behind an additional paywall.

The lead characters are well-cast across the board, with Chase and McDonough especially effective as complex, unpredictable characters whose sporadic conflicts go a long way toward developing a rooting interest in both men.

The acting isn’t awful and the production values are passable. McDonough makes a much better villain than anybody shoved into that sort of role here. This is an origin story that lacks anything in the way of a “hook” to whet the viewer ‘s appetite for a series. Even the “Christianity” angle is soft-peddled.
