By God's Grace (2014)

By God’s Grace: Directed by Brett Eichenberger. With Cameron Deane Stewart, Savannah McReynolds, Roark Critchlow, Jillian Clare. In the tradition of a classic “A Christmas Carol,” this film offers many lessons on the importance of giving and the cause and effect our choices have on others.

“This film is a decent Christmas story with one major message that I found thought provoking – what we do, the choices we make impacts the lives of others, either for good or for bad, whether we think so or not. What if we had the opportunity to peer into the future and see how our choices not only affect our own life, but others as well? u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film was very well acted, but I had one issue – the way the George bailey became hard, arrogant, unkind, cynical comes across as forced. It is unlikely that the tragedy he experiences could cause a complete 180 turn from the values and ways that he was raised, so it feels as though there is some missing part of the story to explain his decent into becoming a Scrooge. This is a good family film, but keep it for the 10 year old and up.”
