      Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter A dull, sluggish effort that doesn't avoid a single cliche. Oct 8, 2017 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times It's more reflective of the human experience than many of its pure-hearted brethren. However, it undercuts that authenticity by lacking strong character motivations and details that would make this story of redemption feel truer. Oct 5, 2017 Full Review Maitland McDonagh Film Journal International In the end none of it adds up to much. Oct 9, 2017 Full Review Christian Toto HollywoodInToto.com Is this the third wave of faith-based filmmaking? If so, bring it on. Rated: 3/4 Oct 6, 2017 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Rough and uneven, Generational Sins is not the sort of film that will be passed along from father to son. It is, however, an adequate vehicle for MacPherson to demonstrate what he's capable of, and that's worth watching. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 5, 2017 Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat A dreary, overly self-serious faith-based film, with little to distinguish it outside of some swearing. Rated: 1/4 Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member A bad bad bad movie.Much very bad! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review nilufer e It probably meant well but hell it was dull and almost completely meaningless. Who would want to make a movie about this plot now anyway? I didn't like the cast or the performances as well. Boring ass movie, I'm glad it was short. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I love the message taken home from this film. Everyone can relate in one way or another! Please watch this movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the Best...You will love the works of Director Spencer T. Folmar in Generational Sins! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Generational sins is a heartfelt journey with strong redemption! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie captured the true torment of so many in our local central pennsylvania area. I appreciate that everything was not tied up with a pretty bow and cliches were avoided at every turn. Plot was predictable but not on a bad way at all. Daniel Macphearson did a tremendous job capturing the true torment of Drew. The brother dynamic was well written and the redemption was beautiful and simplistic. Definitely broke the mold on faith based films. Well acted, well written, beautifully simplistic, raw, and honest! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
