As part of their rehabilitation, Louisiana inmates spend three days at an evangelical Christian prison retreat.

Don Shanahan

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Lives are changed before your eyes and it’s wholly refreshing to observe a Christian point-of-view that holds its peers of different denominations and, more importantly, itself strictly accountable for this kind of communal service.

Rated: 4/5

Faith in the Big House is less a documentary and more 60 minutes segment. The uneven open quickly jumped into the subject at hand and really never set the tone for what was to follow. Though there are some interesting points made, nothing is ever expounded upon and no solid conclusion is ever mentioned. Not a great documentary but at such a short run time it isn't a bad watch.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
