The Jesus Music

Great production value.

This was so aesthetically pleasing that little else would matter.. but being a christian project it makes it tenfold more pleasing.

The Jesus Music is what I call a moving movie about Christian music. I love Christian music and seeing a movie about how it became was really really good. I loved every second of this film.

Very eye opening. While it, obviously, shows the highs. It shows the artists frailty. If you have any interest in music do yourself a favor and watch. There is a moment where they talk about Tobymacs oldest son passing of an overdose, it is touching. I remember Toby handling that loss as good as anyone I have ever seen. He truly shows his emotions. I live how it credits Amy Grant with starting this push to the music becoming mainstream stream. Not with that intent in mind. Again. This is eye opening. It says a lot about these artists to just be honest. As honest as anyone would be. I have always liked Christian pop and gospel. This sheds a new light for me. Also. A great part about Kirk Franklin. What a pioneer.

I had to drive 70 miles round-trip to see this and it was very much worth it. I laughed a lot, teared up several times, and got to relive my youth and the music that came to define it. It was essentially the soundtrack of my life. I definitely appreciated this documentary and all who gave their time to be involved in it.

The executive producers of this documentary are Amy Grant and Michael W Smith. Much of this documentary is about...Amy Grant and Michael W Smith. There's a lot of good here, but as other reviewers have noted there are a lot of important artists that were left out. In this day and age material like this would have better been served to be a six-part documentary. One episode for each decade? Or each episode centering on thematic issues like the content of the lyrics, the quality of music, how CCM has changed music styles in the local church, etc? Still, it was worth a trip down memory lane.
