Not necessarily a movie bashing on Christians
15 June 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This didn't seem like a movie that bashed on Christians. But how sometimes people can fall for protecting their own reputations, their own pride and ego, and to prove their worth to people. Instead of genuinely moving because of love and affection for each other through Christ. C'mon nobody likes to be hovered over by someone else, especially by people they hardly know. And be judged upon constantly, even with smug and arrogant stares. This movie just seemed to show how it can cause Christians downfall if they have the wrong motives in mind and not Christ-centered. The plot is basically about a Catholic woman that is overly obsessed with her Christian reputation and winning the Catholic woman award at her church. But also having to deal with a lesbian daughter and a son that left his wife that he didn't love for someone else. This is a relatable movie since I met certain Christians that are portrayed in this movie. Especially people that fall for the logo over the symbol that should be stood up for with genuine heart and right motives without judgmental eyes. But overall it just quickly became dull and boring. Sure sometimes a rehash of real life in movie form can be entertaining but just not so much in this case. There just wasn't much emotion or attention grabbing aspect about this movie.
