GamerTab That was an excellent one.

BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Marian20 Alex stars and acts as screenwriter and scriptwriter of this Christian film that deals with paternity.Courageous tells a story about four law enforcement officers - Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, David Thomson, and Shane Fuller - together with a worker named Javier that deals with fatherhood issues in their respective families.Things begin to change as they started to provide attention to it when Adam's young daughter passed away.They started to put things into perspective by becoming close to the Lord and provide more time with their respective families particularly the needs of their children.No question about it that this is a film solely for believers. Non- Christians will definitely fail to appreciate it considering that issues dealing with fatherhood was resolved through fostering a better relationship with the Lord.Also,we get to see a lot of issues being tackled that the story becomes over-plotted that the resolution of the conflicts becomes primarily having trust in the Lord and spending more time with him just as they spend more time with their family amidst their busy schedules.But nevertheless,it is still a good film as it encourages fathers to be responsible.

alex rider What could have been a good movie, with a good enough plot/story, good actors and even some good ideas really went downhill at some point. Having a message, a lot of "godly" presence is one thing and can be a good one. But having over half of the movie be about god here and god there, is too much. A good message has to be subtle enough that the viewer doesn't feel like he's being hit over the head again and again with it and being brainwashed. Especially when the summary doesn't say a thing about this movie turning out to be like a church sermon. Definitely not what you'd expect to be watching. So in a nutshell, i wish it had been the same plot but with less preachy stuff.

Hillary Lantzy The first 10 minutes I really enjoyed, but it all went down hill from there. This was the first Kendrick Brothers film I have seen, I didn't know what I was getting myself into. It slyly passed itself as a regular run-of-the- mill drama but in all reality it is nothing more than a Christian movie...too preachy and predictable. The acting and screenplay wasn't the biggest problem I had. Let me first say again the car jacking in the beginning was fantastic, but after that, the acting was too stiff and forced, robotic like. Secondly, how stereotypical for their Mexican- American friend to be a poor construction worker with a thick Spanglish accent. And also that youths are bad because they don't have fathers...plenty of "thugs" had fathers, get over yourselves. Third, from what I understand of Christianity, the Christian god is not a genie, the film (along with other Kendrick Brothers I've seen after this) portrays their god like such: "If I pray, God will give me this." No, that's not how the real world works, if you want something work for it. The movie has an unrealistic approach, right down to the dialog. Though I am not religious, I wanted to like this film for its potential, but I couldn't bring myself to liking it. You either love the message of the movie or it is nails on a chalkboard.

elenibrooks This film is without a doubt my favourite Christian film of all time.Its funny, sad, emotional, moving and inspiring and I would recommend it to everyone! :)With great actors and an amazing script this film is great to watch as a family or with friends.As a teenager I found it helpful and I have watched it again and again.If you haven't seen any of the other Sherwood Picture films I would highly recommend them as well.If you enjoyed New Hope(with Ben Davies!)then you will love this too (also with Ben Davies!!!!).As I said before I would recommend this to everyone and I think every teenager and father should watch it.
