oh my mom is going to love this
meganFeb 21, 2019Thankfully, this is something I’ll completely forget about in a month. The religious aspects were quiet at the start (had I not known what the movie was about, I may not even suspected that there were religious undertones), but then there came a point halfway through…
ChadwinFeb 21, 2019My local theater can bring this but not If Beale Street Could Talk... Sometimes I really hate living in the middle of Kansas.

I was fully prepared to give this a positive review. There were the typical issues that almost always seem to plague faith-based films such as low production values, amateurish acting, and awkward writing/pacing, but the bond of brotherly love that kept the endearing…
TheQuietGamerApr 27, 2024They really went in during the last 15 minutes with the plot. David. Why David. :’(
ColbyAug 6, 2022Christian movies usually have a lot of issues, but this one is actually pretty awesome.

"Your brother...." Like every other film in the genre, Run the Race far too often leans into manipulative territory, blending the subtleness of a hammer with the need to wring as much forced emotion as it possibly can, even when that means awkward use of music, and a…
deovanteOct 1, 2019Not a bad sports movie filled with very pretty white boys in tight football attire, I really loved those locker room scenes. Once it started to get all preachy and churchy I was like yeah nah. I watched it, I found parts to like, so yeah it’s not bad, probably would never…
B E R TFeb 23, 2019This movie is quite the manipulative piece of garbage. There are probably three shots in total that I would say are above average. Everything else just made me beg for it to at least try. The acting is so horrible that it’s hilarious. The dialogue is the most basic, cliché,…

This dramatic movie is about the love of two brothers full of determination that are working hard to make a better life and are willing to sacrifice it all for one another.
Seb dislikedRun the RaceHorrible movie! The idea isn’t half bad but the execution is terrible and so is the story. Hot pile of trash. This movie has very few if not zero redeeming qualities.

Refreshing to see a movie that puts God first. Tim Tebow is such a great example of how you should live your life for the Lord.
TMTeresa Monhollandexcellent movie! had some dad moments, it definitely a must see!
WHWanda Hulseythe only part I hated was when his brother died from having a seizure it hits home I have siezures to but thank God they found a medication that works for me.

I would have expected a very clear Gospel message from the Tebow brothers. Could have done more.
GMGabriela Moralesone of the best movies I’ve seen in months.
JJJenn Johnsonso cute and was sad at the end but a really good moviere💖

Acting was top notch. Story was touching. Sometimes movies with a Christian worldview can be hokey....this was just a very good movie.
CScindi smithGreat movie with all the feels! Great message all thru out the movie!
NKNathan KulmerOne of the most powerful movies I've ever seen! The entire cast were phenomenal and it was such a moving story!

Beyond its theme of the power of God’s love, Run the Race centers on the importance of forgiveness. Viewers who can overlook its flaws will find value in its message, but those outside its target demo will be unable to see beyond its cinematic sins.

Director/co-writer Chris Dowling infuses his sports drama with a grungy sense of place, making Run the Race feel a bit like a Christian version of “Friday Night Lights.”

As if eager to self-sabotage its chances at being a somewhat palatable, not grossly preachy example for future projects, the final minutes of Run the Race do away with any measure of moderation the film had previously exhibited.
