Atom User Reviews for Man of God
Thoughtful, inciteful, inspiring! Even on film, the struggles of St. Nektarios lead one to greater faith through self-examination and a greater desire for repentance. Glory to God!
Great
He truly was a Man of God. Excellent movie, well done.
True story, not a dry eye in the house.
True humility and holiness. Glory to God
Very moving and inspirational
Very moving film. An honorable and worthy example for us all.
Beautifully done. Have a box of Tissues 🥺
Outstanding portrayal of a true humble man of God.
My favorite movie I’ve ever seen so far. I’m an inquirer into Orthodoxy and this movie, as well as many other lives of the saints, was truly inspiring and humbling to see. I’m really glad I saw it, I’m truly inspired to continue on my path to Orthodoxy. This is an amazing movie, be prepared to shed some tears
Man of God is a well made faith inspiring movie
Great family movie with intense lessons of humility and suffering. It teaches, through simplicity, how to truly love your enemies and not respond the way the world expects you to. A creation of beauty at the hands of a simple soul each time he encountered dead gardens, souls and institutions. This is a must see! Magnificent filming.
Inspiring… great film and stay after credits fro special share with the film crew. I hope that this film reaches many. Glory to God
Wonderfully made movie of this great saint. Highly recommend.
I've read many books on St Nectarios's life & this stayed true to how he was treated. His jealous, pompous, & self serving the other Bishops were. But how humble & filled with love for God St Necatarios was & to all, even those who hated him. Just like our Savior was yo those who persecuted & put Him yo death; yet He gorgave them. Wonderous is God in His Saints✝️
Good to see that great movies can still be made.
This was a blessing to behold, true to St Nektarios’ story. Thinking about his life of love, holiness and deep humility has made me weep, even today. The movie was so excellently done! Glory to God☦️
Magnificent! So glad I got to see this excellent portrayal of St. Nectarios’s holy life!
I truly did not know all the trials and tribulations he had to go through. How did the other Bishops and Patriarch etc. justify their lies. They too had to eventually "face their maker". Make sure you stay through the credits and hear from the Director!
An inspiring story about spirituality and faith. It makes you think how better our world would be if we were all making better choices.
The best Eastern Orthodox movie that I have ever seen.
It's a wonderful movie!!!
Very inspirational story revealing examples of true acts of mercy and Christianity. A very humbling experience.
Great movie especially near Easter ❤️❤️
Beautiful story reminding us of our humility, the importance of faith and love above all.
Beautiful
Finally a film that reminds what life is about. A feel good that she’s light and gives us hope. I loved this film!
Excellent! Thought provoking.
I can't recall the last time my wife and I were able to say something nice about a movie while on our way home from the theater. Suffice it to say, Man of God is one of those rare films. It deserved every one of our five stars. Hopefully, the filmmaker's commendable refusal to-- 1) dumb down the idea of what it means to be a true, modern-day disciple of Christ, 2) cut corners on production values, and, 3) let their cast and crew give less than their best, will SOON be rewarded with the means to shoot another story that will be just as moving, if not more so, than St. Nektarios of Aegina's. Thank you, Yelena Popovic, for your faith and your vision, for as it is written, "Where there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs 29:18 KJV).
St. Nektarios struggled with conditions still prevalent today, i.e., false accusations, rumors and power hungry ambitious intellectuals threatened by others. He suffered with humility, forgiveness and a focus on God. Truly an example for us in all times.
I would highly recommend this movie to anyone. The portrayal of St. Nektarios is a wonderful example of the ideal Christian life and Christian attitude. If anyone asked me how a Christian should behave, I would have them watch this movie. The acting is phenomenal.
heartbreaking beautiful
The true story of St. Nektarios a saint for our times!! Would see this again and again.
Wonderful. I highly recommend it.
Movie was great but the theater had some technical issues that took away from the overall movie impact!!! 🥲
We need more dates for this
Go see this great movie about our beloved Greek Orthodox Saint Nektarios. This true story is the Holy life he lived. The cast did a great job in the movie. Also, read the book about his life called, "Saint Nektarios Saint of our Century."
A lovely film about a truly blessed human of the church. Also, an account of how church politics could provoke indecent behavior towards one of the finest God-loving priests.
