What A Great Movie!    January 4, 2009
Robert B. Briscoe (Savannah, GA)
I first saw "Facing the Giants" at the theatre. I left thinking WOW! How could a regular guy in a small town in Georgia create such great entertainment with such a great meaning? Then I saw the movie again on cable and I cried again from the overwhelming joy at the ending. This is a movie many people will want in their DVD library to share with family and friends many times over the years. It is a Keeper!

Facing the giants is absolutly the best movie I have seen in decades. A good movie for todays times. Very inspirational. I just can't seem to find the words to describe this movie. I have never cried, from being moved by a movie until now.

It made me think    October 20, 2008

Coach Grant Taylor (played by Alex Kendrick) has been going through life, doing what he should...but somehow it never seems to amount to much. He wanted to turn his school's football team around, he wanted to give his wife a good home, and he wanted to have a family. But, one by one, each of his dreams seems to be falling apart. And then, an old man comes into his office and reads to him from the Bible - it is then that Grant has an epiphany, it's not about him, it's about faith. It's an epiphany that will turn his life around 180 degrees!

This is a great movie, one that I found really inspiring. Yes, I can see how some people found it a little over the top - so much going wrong before Grant commits himself, and so much going right afterward. But, it is hard to use subtly when cramming a lot of learning into such a small time.

I really enjoyed this movie - it made me think, and it really convicted me into thinking about my own faith and what it means for how I live my life. So, if you want a great, family-friendly movie with great values, then get Facing the Giants. It's one of the best movies I have seen all year, and I give it my highest recommendations!
