Brandon Yu New York Times The film reads like a faux-hip youth pastor in movie form, only instead of an acoustic guitar, it’s an 808 drum machine luring the kids toward God. Apr 6, 2023 Full Review Murtada Elfadl Variety Adds a mostly delightful entry to the musical genre, even if it doesn’t offer a unique take. More successfully it acts as a winning introductory calling card to the acting and musical talents of its rising star, Chloe Bailey. Apr 6, 2023 Full Review Carla Renata The Curvy Film Critic The premise of taking gospel music and making it sound mainstream is tackled repeatedly seemingly streamlined for the specific audience of the star of that time.  This time it's geared for fans of Chloe Bailey. Doesn't take away the fun or the music Apr 24, 2023 Full Review Symphony Barnes Cultured Vultures Praise This may have some laudable performances and funny moments here and there, but its flimsy and formulaic tendencies make it forgettable. Rated: 5/10 Apr 14, 2023 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media Bailey and Washington make a fabulous duo, and their characters complement each other. Rated: 3/5 Apr 12, 2023 Full Review Marshall Shaffer Decider Praise This is a toe-tapping good time that thinks differently about how to tell a story about Christians that isn’t exclusively for Christians.
