      Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter This religious-themed drama about a small-town mayor's personal crusade against "the war on Christmas" is about as subtle as the character's name -- Bob Revere. Sep 21, 2012 Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle It takes the joy of Christmas and makes it bellicose. I'd rather have a black licorice candy cane, thanks. Rated: 0.5/5 Sep 21, 2012 Full Review Michael O'Sullivan Washington Post The sheer volume of what I like to call "eyebrow acting" -- in which thespian intensity is directly proportional to the angle and depth of one's forehead furrows -- is staggering. Rated: 1/4 Sep 14, 2012 Full Review Megan Basham WORLD Though some of the language here mirrors what we often hear from the ACLU and public-school officials, Last Ounce of Courage simplifies and dumbs down their arguments to such a degree that they become ugly stereotypes rather than real people. Jun 19, 2018 Full Review Jackie K. Cooper jackiekcooper.com A Christian themed movie that needs better acting and definitely a better script. Rated: 5/10 Sep 19, 2012 Full Review Dan Lybarger KC Active It's a call for the faithful to rise up if they, or any heathens who stumble in the audience, can wake from their naps or their fits of helpless unintentional laughter.

      Audience Member A movie for gullible neanderthals. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/18/22 Full Review Audience Member Great movie. My family tries to watch it every year during the Christmas holiday. The theme is patriotic and honors the military. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member They say Christmas in this movie so much it isn't even a word anymore. All of the acting is subpar and melodramatic. And it has that cheesy made in the eighties by a Christian youth group to scare children into Christianity. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member A great movie but not for the reasons you might think. This movie tries and absolutely fails in about every way possible. The story, acting, and even the damn sound is god awful. The movie takes itself way too seriously. I can't get over how incredibly stupid the opening credits are with the motor cycle and American flag waving around. The narration over the visuals is so cheesy. I really want to know who came up with the plot for this film. The story is so incredibly idiotic that even a chimpanzee could probably come up with a better idea than this. On top of that the actors look like they don't give a shit at all. The dialogue is a shit show too, characters will just stare at each other very awkwardly. That one boy (Christian I think is his name) basically bitches and rolls his eyes the entire movie. Christian also has this awful haircut ( like a weird mix between a mullet and a bowl cut ), which instantly makes him look like even more of an asshole. I don't even want to talk about the sound quality because it's just disappointing. Now after all of that you may think I hate this movie, but it's so horrible that I actually love it. It's not even meant to be funny but the awkwardness and bad performances made me laugh out loud while watching this. My absolute favorite scene in the entire movie is when the kids are throwing a talent show dressed up as aliens. The best part is guy sitting in the audience, yelling at all the kids. The poor kids on stage dressed as aliens look like they would rather eat dog shit than be in this movie for another second, and it is absolutely hilarious. Watch this movie and plesedon't get a Christian haircut. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Very Important Americana. Will watch again next weekend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member It's amazing how inconsequential they make the struggles of the main characters this is shameless fear mongering propaganda. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
