While tecnically a sequel, I see this film as more of a continuation of a man's life. Whether you a person of faith or not, we are not guaranteed an easy road. Our family can get sick, friends can sick, and hardships can often feel likr more than one can bear. Yet we have…
Robert ShupeFeb 19, 2026WAIT…it’s possible to make a GOOD Christian movie?!!
CinemaFan007Feb 21, 2026An emotionally resonant and powerful sequel. A lot of what made the first one so good stays for this sequel. The performances are good, especially Ventimiglia’s as Tim Timmons, who was a great addition to the cast and one of my favorite parts of the film. His story was…

ik i was supposed to be emotionally involved but the every time Milo was onscreen i could only hear “WHY did you DROP outta YALE?!”
itskendallfaithFeb 21, 2026Considerably better than the first I Can Only Imagine, dropping the cringey humor and origin story tropes in favor of a much more interesting examination of where a career goes after your band achieves one-hit wonder status in the cult of Christian propaganda. Even if this…
Aaron BartuskaFeb 20, 2026Solid film from start to finish, I got bored in the middle and a minute later Milo Ventimiglia delivers an Oscar worthy monologue, the end was phenomenal. My gripes are his son's moment on stage singing alone was not good, and seemed like it only served as a warm up to the…

as a “this is us” fan, the hospital scene had me stressed thinking something was going to happen to milo ventimiglia again
autumnMar 4, 2026Watched this movie last night with some friends from church. Very emotional. It didn’t reinvent the wheel, it didn’t take film to new heights, it did exactly what it set out to do. Better than most movies nowadays. Huge plus: this movie is about how they made the song…
LoganFeb 20, 2026My mom loved it! The lady behind me, who was humming and saying “mhmm” throughout the whole movie, must have been moved by the messaging, I assume. The church group at the back, who loudly talked and clapped during the film, probably loved it too. Sadly, it treats the…

Really good for a sequel, but not as good as the first one. Another strong and emotional true story that leads to a beautiful ending. There are a few slow parts and iffy writing, but it doesn’t take away from the whole movie. I like how it explores more people as well. 6.5/10

This movie is designed for an audience already dedicated to the music of Millard and Timmons, and to the particular Christian tradition they represent. Those who are already fans will appreciate this chance to share his story, but those who do not know him may find it uninspiring.

Ventimiglia becomes the sequel’s saving grace.

Laborious and dull, I Can Only Imagine 2 only comes to life in the comedic scenes featuring Ventimiglia, who buries his handsomeness in a buzz-cut, full beard, and Buddy Holly-style glasses to resemble Timmons.
