William Bibbiani TheWrap The events in Searcy's film demand to be taken seriously. The way he portrays them, sometimes, cannot. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Steven D. Greydanus National Catholic Register Tells a story worth telling, and does so reasonably well, but while it avoids actual preaching, it's still addressed to the choir. That doesn't make it a bad film, but it could have been a better one. Rated: B Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times The film never loses sight of the choir to which it is plainly preaching. Oct 12, 2018 Full Review Brett McCracken The Gospel Coalition It's a slasher film about a bogeyman of a different, more disturbing sort. Aug 19, 2019 Full Review Sr. Rose Pacatte St. Anthony Messenger The film may be preaching to the people who already believe that abortion is the taking of the most innocent of human lives, but perhaps it will inform and change some hearts. Dec 13, 2018 Full Review Stephen Silver Splice Today Seriously lacking in local authenticity, while also propagating multiple false myths that came out of the Kermit Gosnell saga (Philadelphia Weekly) Rated: 2/5 Nov 27, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Laura S Excellent movie. Wish it had more exposure since it’s important people understand this subject. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/09/25 Full Review Stephen H Superb movie, tight script, and excellent acting. If it weren’t for the subject, I suspect it would have received more buzz and many more people would have seen it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/24 Full Review Matthew K Great movie. Makes you think about things! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/06/24 Full Review Audience Member Earl billings was great Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Francisco S was this a movie made for tv??? It has no sense. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/25 Full Review Audience Member A movie that shows the horrific inner workings of an industry built on death. A movie that shows how the media work to steer the narrative away from truth. And a movie that shows how "professional" movie reviews are based on that religious fervor to manipulate the masses. You can't watch this movie and not understand why the pro life movement is winning. Because science matters. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
