Mark Jackson Epoch Times The main message of "Small Group" is that we should try to avoid judging people before we really make an effort to get to know them. As messages go, it really doesn't get much better than that. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 24, 2020 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Matt Chastain gets it right and ends up producing a faith-based motion picture that entertains without compromise its faith along the way. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Nov 24, 2020 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media Some violence, drinking in thoughtful faith-based drama. Rated: 3/5 Oct 19, 2020 Full Review Bill Newcott The Saturday Evening Post Director Chastain...momentarily sheds the friendly confines of an off-kilter Sunday School comedy to dip his toes into a kind of street-smart cinematic realism that owes more to Rossellini's Rome, Open City than to Heaven Is for Real . Rated: 3/5 Oct 9, 2020 Full Review Jackie K. Cooper jackiekcooper.com An enjoyable faith based film from writer/director/co-star Matt Chastain. He hits just the right notes of drama combined with humor, and it should please the choir and others. Rated: 7/10 Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Kimberly D Make sure to have a tissue because there are some beautiful moments as well as funny ones too. Very well thought out movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review Koi P I thought it was going to be a comedy, but it delves much deeper. This movie is honest and direct. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/23/23 Full Review Mathew K I didn't have high expectations of this movie, but it turned out to be a fantastic, funny, and heart-warming movie. Hope to see more from this production company! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/03/23 Full Review Mike H What I liked about this movie is that the realities of life are not sugar-coated and are shown to affect a Christian no differently than a non-christian. How the realities are approached is the difference. God's grace and forgiveness is that difference. Knowing (having the faith to believe) that He is there -always - for those who choose Him to be, demonstrates that difference. Excellent real to life movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/20/23 Full Review Audience Member not the best, a few laughs Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Although one would never know it from the RT description, this is a faith-based movie with the message that all non-believers would give their lives to Jesus if only they spent time with the right-thinking people who already have. If you agree with that message at the outset, you'll think it's a great movie. But if not, beware. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
