The Song (2014)

Wonderful character development!

not as good as all the hype

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

I think this is one of the most well made Christian films I've ever seen. The acting is really good, and the photography is beautiful. Overall it's well directed, well edited, and the music and musical performances are a real treat. If you're looking for an inspiring, entertaining movie that's edifying without being cheesy, this is one you should check out. In my opinion this film is a notch above most other faith-based movies. Personally, I'd like to see far more high-quality faith-based movies like this one be made.

I first heard about this movie on the local Christian radio station and thought it sounded too sappy and unrealistic. Then I noticed the reviews it was getting. Really good reviews actually! Even from "secular" sources. So we went to see it and were not disappointed at all. Based on King Solomon, the movie didn't sugar-coat any of the ugliness of reality, and I appreciated how true to life the movie was. Right from the start it was captivated. The music was unexpectedly enjoyable too. I laughed, contemplated my own marriage and I got choked up (no tears fell😉). I left the movie with a better understanding of God's plan for marriage. I was ready to give my marriage all that God had planned for us! I wish it had done better at the box office because it was deserved. I look forward to watching it again and plan on buying copies for other couples I know! See this movie!

I hesitated to watch this movie since it was made by Samuel Goldwyn and not by a Christian Studio. However, to my surprise, I liked it! The main character and his wife are very happy until the husband falls for the oldest trick in the book (by no doubt a very pretty and unscrupulous female). If you don't have a babysitter for your children, please see IMDb's Parent's Guide for movie's cautions, to see if this film is safe for your child to see. The movie is about a Singer, so expect some singing; about six or more partial (not full length) songs. The romance is when the main character and his wife go on a date or two and get married (the wedding night consists of one kiss, in a medium to almost dark bedroom) No sex is seen or heard. No Nudity (I don't count a man without a shirt as nudity). A Drama film with a few intense scenes and a very wise message to whoever gets this movie. We did.

Raw, real, & romantic. A must see. Best film with a musical soul of the decade. Cineamatography is beautifully executed. Acting is well done. Masterful storytellung. A movie that promises to be a benchmark and set a new standard for faith based films. This one will disturb the co fortsble and comfort the disturbed. The music was like a character in the film. The musical performances were well polished and professional. Grapples real temptations of life on the road while giving an example of redemption and hope. The film is the sexy, sleek, and unsanitized. Many chrisitans may bash the film while secular audiences may likely flock to support the film. The secual chemistry between the lead actors is palatable enough to strike terror in legalistic church goers while peaking interest in the souls that have strayed from the faith. It's siren call may just be a lighthouse on the shore for those looking for a lifeline for love.
