“Letters to God” director aims to make 3-D faith films — Hollywood In Ten
22 April 2010 12:50 PM, PDT | Hollywoodnews.com | See recent Hollywoodnews.com news »
By Sean O’Connell
If David Nixon has his way, the 3-D craze that is sweeping the multiplexes with mainstream pictures like “Avatar” and “Alice in Wonderland” will carry Christian-themed message movies to larger audiences. And it will happen sooner rather than later.
“I definitely think that if the (craze) hangs on, then in the next year or two, we will do a Christian film in 3-D,” said Nixon, the successful producer and director behind such inspirational hits as “Fireproof” and “Facing the Giants.” He called to promote his latest (two-dimensional) Christian drama “Letters to God,” which is in theaters.
“They’ve made is so easy now,” Nixon continued. “The technology doesn’t hurt your eyes. And it’s not about the effects. It’s not about that cheesy kind of play in the 1950s. It’s about adding depth, the way your eyes really see the world. So I »

"Letters To God": Seeking the Christian Market
14 April 2010 10:17 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
The new film "Letters To God" is advertised as being from one of the producers of "Facing the Giants." If this is true then I wish the makers of "Letter" had learned the "Facing the Giants" lesson. That being you don't need to beat people over the head with religion in order to make your point. "Letters To God" keeps letting the story be interrupted by the sponsor, which in this case is Christianity. The core story concerns a young boy named Tyler (Tanner Maguire) who has a malignant brain tumor. He is taking chemotherapy which may or may not work. His father is recently deceased and that leaves his mother Maddie (Robin Lively) with the main responsibility of the household. Her oldest son Ben (Michael Bolten) is feeling isolated. He loves Tyler but resents the time spent on him. Maddie's mother »

Letters to God
13 April 2010 4:02 PM, PDT | | See recent news »
Hopeful and heartfelt, “Letters to God” is a competently made, overtly Christian movie that appeals to a very specific demographic. Unfortunately, the film’s vision of faith is narrow, too narrow to attract a wider audience.
Bald and scarred, eight-year-old Tyler Doherty (Tanner Maguire) is finally home from the hospital and recovering from brain cancer. His mother Maddy (Robyn Lively) struggles with having to leave her sick son to go back to work as a nurse, and his older brother Ben (Michael Christopher Bolten) worries about Tyler but resents that all of the household’s energy and attention is focused on him.
Every day, Tyler writes a letter to God and pops it in the mailbox. When down-on-his-luck postal carrier Brady McDaniels (Jeffrey S.S. Johnson) temporarily takes over the route, he befriends the Dohertys and takes Tyler’s letters — and, eventually, God — to heart.
Unfortunately, the overt evangelicalism in “Letters to God” could be discomfiting, »

Critics Consensus: Date Night Is An Ok Night on The Town
8 April 2010 8:32 AM, PDT | Rotten Tomatoes | See recent Rotten Tomatoes news »
This week at the movies, we've got a wild night on the town (Date Night, starring Steve Carrell and Tina Fey) and some supernatural snail-mail (Letters to God, starring Tanner Maguire and Jeffrey S. Johnson). What do the critics have to say? Steve Carell and Tina Fey are two very funny people. So it seems like a no-brainer that a comedy featuring the two of them as a married couple out on the town would be a can't-miss proposition, right? Well, sort of: critics say Date Night is best when its two stars are riffing off each other, and adrift »
