The greatest offense of the God's Not Dead series may be its failure to imagine for its audience what a truly radical belief in a living God would look like.

Steve Davis

Austin Chronicle

To its credit, this third GND installment earnestly attempts to give some degree of lip service to diverging perspectives on the socio-religious-political scale without too much proselytizing, although there's never any question about whose side it's on.

Rated: 2/5

God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness isn't just the conclusion of the most successful film trilogy made for the evangelical market, it's the first time a Facebook argument has metastasized into a movie.

Rated: 2/5

Less involving than its predecessor but by far the kindest and gentlest and most genuine of the three films.

Rated: 2.0/4.0

Very slow, too many sub plots, and boring. As a Christian myself, it was hard to believe everything that was taking place to become genuinely engaged.

Rated: C-

El Pais (Spain)

Of course, presenting their ecclesiastical characters as people without money and without influence is a fallacy, starting with the very existence of the film. [Full Review in Spanish]

Loved the 1st two movies and the last, but I CAN'T STAND THIS ONE. This one had different writers than the other three. It doesn't even seem like it was written by a Christians.

Minha opinião: Este é o 3º filme do titulo "Deus não esta morto". Aqui tras uma estoria recente que tem ocorrido de forma mundial, que a perseguição aos Cristãos. Aqui a grande controvérsia é a existência da igreja dentro do campus de uma universidade. Uma igreja que já existia antes do campus e que foi fundada pela família do Pastor David. E necesse momento de pressão que é colocada sob a universidade para tirar a igreja ocorre um terrível desastre. Que um dos universitários depois de uma briga com sua namorada meio cristã, joga uma pedra na igreja, que isso causa um vasamento de gás, incedio e a morte de um pastor. Isso foi a gota para se levantar uma verdeira guerra. Agora temos Pastor David lutando pelos seus ideais, uma universidade que usa este acontecido para tirar a igreja e um jovem se escondendo pelo seu crime. Assim decorre o filme nestas brigas e até a prisão do jovem. Qual será a atitude de um homem de Deus agora? Um filme emocionante e forte que faz nos pensarmos nos dias de hoje que vivemos exatamente este impasse. Oque deve vencer oferecer a outra face? Compaixão e o Amor? Ou revidar e lutar pelos seus direitos civis que cada vez mais vem neutralizando o povo de Deus? Roteiro e enredo são bons, bem elaborados, no tempero ideal. Vale apena assistir? Com certeza Nota: 8
