In our vast Christian entertainment viewing experience, we sometimes come upon films that we can hardly justify writing a full review for. Therefore, for your convenience, so you don’t have to go watch those free films that invade your suggested watch list in on-demand video services, we’ve provided a quick overview here. Someday we might post more, if we’re fortunate enough to find more.
Living Water [2006]
From the obnoxious blaring harpsicord soundtrack to the generally terrible production quality, Living Water is possibly one of the worst films on record. Based entirely off of borderline offensive racial stereotypes, there is really no pot here to speak of except for a save the church concept and a bunch of heavy-handed radio preaching that drives the so-called story. As the movie goes from one juvenile drama to the next, the viewer (if they last through it) finds themselves either laughing or crying from embarrassment. A word of advice: steer clear of this one unless you’re really bored.
Running [2015]
Made by a ministry of some sort, it’s unclear whether or not the creation of this film was justified. The production money was spent on the wrong things, such as fancy vehicles, instead of spending it on practical things, such as better audio and video equipment. The story is very thin and empty—it seems like nothing is really happening except characters pretending like they’re doing stuff. Finally, the acting is deplorable, rounding out a very uninspiring movie you probably won’t ever get around to watching.
Only Once [1998]
Only watch this barely-one-hour Mormon movie if you like to laugh at extremely awkward and wooden teenage cast members trying to convey an otherwise important message. There is an unbelievable amount of silence in this film as mindless and empty characters just stare at each other and as useless montages go by. This story is overall childish and overly simplistic. There is no way to understand the end, much less what we’re really supposed to get out of this. But if you want a laugh, have a go at it.
Well that’s all for now! Maybe we’ll post another one someday…maybe not…
