The Resurrection of Gavin Stone (2017)

The Resurrection of Gavin Stone: Directed by Dallas Jenkins. With Brett Dalton, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes, Neil Flynn, D.B. Sweeney. A washed-up former child star, forced to do community service at a local megachurch, pretends to be a Christian to land the part of Jesus in their annual Passion Play, only to discover that the most important role of his life is far from Hollywood.

“We enjoed this movie as a family. The plot is quite clichéd and esay to forsee. But the acting is good and there is some nice slapstick dialogue and a good natured humor which – if you are familiar with church culture – makes you laugh about yourself/your church culture in a refreshing way. It is a clearly faith based film centred around the message of love, forgiveness, grace and getting a second chance. Entertaining and family friendly. Not very compelling but not too cheesey.”
