Very best movie i ever watch
Don't listen to the negative reviews
Admirable film.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Not a terrible movie. Catching Faith presented a positive message of owning up to your choices in life, even if they are hard. It also taught the lesson of being okay with the life you lead. The issue I had with the movie was in the film making process. There were a huge amount of continuity errors, especially during the football games. Beaus friend is QB the entire game, until 40 seconds left in the championship game and all of the sudden him and Beau just disappear from the field. I get that you shot a lot of B roll but make sure the same number is on the field. Also they show a close up of the centers hand a few times with a glove on and then when they zoom out, he has no glove. Simply attention to detail and maybe a few better actors would have gone miles.
I'm not a Christian, but I can understand that a good part of this country is. I think that Christians, however, are doing themselves a disservice with this recent rash of films they've made. Hear me out on this. The filmmakers seem to have one thing in common: none of them have studied film. The cinematography is flat, the editing is filled with jump cuts, and the dialogue seems contrived and unnatural. It seems to me that if the filmmakers would put a little more time into their work they could actually pull off something pretty awesome and a little further reaching. Unfortunately, the films seem to be shot on a shoe-string budget with only the interest of the movie studios making money off of a certain demographic. I'm OK if you're Christian, but you should still have discernibility in your tastes of film. These films are flimsy and don't hold.
This is an Christian masterpiece of a film that is definitely worth seeing."Catching Faith" tells the story of Alexa Taylor and her 'perfect' family, she has two twins Beau (portrayed by Garrett Westton) and Ravyn (portrayed by Bethany Peterson), and the struggles they face. Beau is an all-star football player for a football team called "The Eau Claire Crush" while Ravyn on the other hand is an straight A academic student. Alexa thinks that her family is perfect, but when Beau gets caught drinking at a party and when Ravyn is tempted to cheat on her Advanced Latin II exam final, the family must pull together and realize that not everyone is perfect and that we all have flaws.This is a truly beautiful film about integrity and courage and believing in God.I give 'Catching Faith' a 10/10.
I love indie films! "Catching Faith" might be a faith-based spiritual movie, but don't let the catchy title fool you. It has a relevant message for everyone of any faith or belief system. What is most important to you? We are all the same in this world with daily temptations, doubts, and fears that can change your future forever, depending upon your integrity and what you decide to do. The well-written story gives us so many compelling examples of choices we all face and the consequences of our actions. Without throwing in any spoilers, I empathized and fell in love with this family and their friends as they grew in so many ways.I loved the setting of this movie because it was shot in northwestern Wisconsin, showcasing the small-town beauty of not only the communities that make up the "Chippewa Valley" area, but also the lovely people. It is amazing to learn of so many talented locals being used in this professional production, and then seeing every single person listed in the credits! "Catching Faith" is a feel-good family movie shot in what I consider a gorgeous all-American setting. I hope this indie movie gets a wide release, as it has a wide appeal!
