The Oath (2023)
I'm a Mormon and was disappointed
I've been following this movie for 10 years. I bought the short film. I watched the video updates. I read all of the emails. I prayed for it. I donated to it. And this is what we got?
Shirtless super simp Moroni, sex scene, endless gold shimmer aside, there is no substance to this movie. It could have been 6 mins long and contained the same story. The music was fantastic but an inspiring sound track only inspires when there is something onscreen to inspire.
My major issue is the fact that it has nothing to do with Moroni. If you forget the plates, which is pretty easy with their 4 mins of screen time, you would not be able to tell that is is related to the Book of Mormon. It's not a story of Moroni son of Mormon, last prophet of the Nephites. It is a story of a shirtless simp who doesn't know how to shoot a bow and literally breaks down crying when ever his GF leaves.
