I recently had the opportunity to review a wonderful Christian movie.I love watching movies and love it when it is a Christian movie with great values in it to teach and learn from.Let me just say I was very excited to see this movie.King's Faith is one of the best Christian movies I have seen in awhile.A lot of the christian movies I have seen are sappy and have terrible graphics,terrible acting, but this movie is not at all like those ones! Not only was the acting good,the graphics but the story was exciting and I could not wait to see what was going to happen next. I have watched this movie a few times.
This is a wonderful movie to show at church youth groups for movie nights with the youth group kids.The movie has a lot of great information in it to start a great dialogue over things that each and every one of them might be involved in somehow.I am really anticipating them to release a King’s Faith 2″ I did not want the movie to end.I wanted to see more to see what happened to each and every one of the actors in this movie.
