Critics Consensus

Every bit the proselytizing lecture promised by its title, God's Not Dead 2 preaches ham-fistedly to its paranoid conservative choir.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Shot in holy high-definition, with lots of histrionic crane shots that swoop down like angels from on high and a score that batters the audience into observance, this is a film that will work best when preaching to the converted. Rated: 2/5 May 1, 2016 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian The almighty may not be dead, but Nietzsche is rolling in his grave. Rated: 1/5 Apr 28, 2016 Full Review Henry Heffer Little White Lies Do they show good movies in hell? Rated: 1/5 Apr 26, 2016 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com David A.R. White once again proves himself to be one of contemporary Christian cinema's most talented actors. Rated: 2.5/4.0 Sep 9, 2020 Full Review Daniel Barnes Dare Daniel While the first God's Not Dead fed the persecution complex of evangelical Christians, God's Not Dead 2 takes that complex to Golden Corral. Rated: 1/5 Jan 27, 2020 Full Review May Leitz Nyx Fears Completely straw-manned...the movie spends two hours screwing around...don't pay to see it. Feb 11, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Jade Coyote good message but forgettable Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/07/22 Full Review Audience Member It’s not surprising that the ungodly critics trashed this film, but for those of us who are believers, this film is intensely satisfying, Unlike its prequel, this film addresses the evidence of God’s existence and the recalcitrance of those who don’t believe. Highly recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Stephen C The movie definitely shows what it's like to be a Christian in modern day America. Oh, no sex or profanity? That explains the low critical score. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Chris S Excellently done! I truly enjoyed this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review John B I enjoyed this overall as I thought the message was good & drives home a good point while supported by a good cast. Nice to see Hartman in something other than Sabrina Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review Eric C It's an inspiring movie. God is most definitely, not dead! Unless someone can prove that a mindless nothing created all life, and all the food, and the water, for all life to survive and prosper. The incredible accuracy of Bible prophecy proves that God's not dead. I liked the first move more, but this is really good, also. Good drama! Good truth! I just don't have enough faith to be an atheist. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
