Simply A Masterpiece
hyped garbage
This movie was excellent. I loved the action, the romance, the patriotism, and most of all, the spiritual lesson to be learned. There was no foul language or ungodly scenes to make you or your family uncomfortable. This movie should be made into either a regular show or a continuation like a trilogy. I loved Ben Franklin's character too. This movie would even make a good video game.
This is a great movie for all ages. I loved the "National Treasure" feel of the characters and the spiritual undertone was what so many of us face. The redemption lesson presented at the end is not over stated and well worth the wait.My kids (10 and 13) were held captive as we waited to see if the good guys would win in the end! We loved the tidbits of fact revealed at the end tying the movie to possibly being "based" on something real. Very enjoyable. I am proud to have shared the movie more than once. We need more family friendly Action Adventures geared to entertain the whole family with a bright side as opposed to only a dark side.
This film has some great adventure scenes sprinkled thru-out, and I especially liked the rooftop chase across a fantastic set showing the evening skyline of colonial America. I am a sucker for "period pieces" and it is obvious research was done to get the "feel" of the era, with accurate depictions of forts, prison ships, cargo ships, and the historic locations themselves. John Rhys-Davies always plays a strong part, but either he did not try to steal any scenes with his presence, or the rest of the cast was just that good! The story is credible, (not so far fetched from the tale of what we know about John Paul Jones and his past).Hard to imagine such a great film might be made with such entertainment value, yet the special effects did NOT detract from the acting, and the film had NO nudity!! (In this day and age, LOL)...The only real issue I had with "credibility" is when a structure is being destroyed and two of the main characters, having just escaped from it, took a little too much time, (IMHO) to resume swimming to get out of the area... Splinter city.Loved the film.
This was a well made, well written movie with an exciting, engaging, romantic, and adventurous plot. The story line is woven through with the gospel, outlining the journey of a man who was originally an assassin for the East India Company, who tried to redeem his notoriously evil name by thwarting multiple plots, saving lives, and etc. He slowly realizes that he can never redeem his name by works, he simply has to ask and it is freely given. I personally can't stand preachy movies... This one doesn't fall into that category. I also appreciate the romance part... Not over done and mushy, also not way to "homeschooler"and awkward.
