Jeff Shannon Seattle Times This upright and thoughtful film boasts a level of quality and noble purpose that Hollywood has all but abandoned. Rated: 3/4 Apr 21, 2006 Full Review Bill Muller Arizona Republic Might feel like a Hollywood movie but it's clearly not. Dutcher, who also wrote the screenplay, does his share of sermonizing and clobbers the audience over the head with a spiritual ending. Rated: 3/5 Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Scott Foundas Variety An uncompromising, disconsolate pic about crises of faith. Nov 4, 2005 Full Review Bob Strauss Los Angeles Daily News Dutcher believes that forgiveness is one of the highest manifestations of divine love. That kind of message goes a long way toward pardoning many a cinematic sin. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 16, 2006 Full Review Phil Villarreal Arizona Daily Star 'Mormonz N the Hood' would have been a fitting title. Rated: 3/4 Feb 16, 2006 Full Review Carol Cling Las Vegas Review-Journal ... the movie's compassionate message gives it a measure of grace ... but good intentions don't always make for a good movie. Rated: C+ Feb 3, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Rachel Emmers did an outstanding performance. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Worst movie I have haver seen. First of all it had a terrible plot line that left me with a hollow and terrible feeling. Second it was super long that leaves even the most avid movie goer with a full bladder and a sour bile in the back of their mouth. Third. This movie gives a terrible portrail of Mormons and Mormon missionaries. Overall... This movie just made me sad. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member From the view point of Hollywood... "great and fabulous if Mormons break the rules" from a church member point of view... not so pleased with with the exposure of broken rules a missionary should not do. However, the direction is not too shabby, but the flaw is that it seems to be almost 3 movies in one and unable to connect...and the ending while the intension is present with giving message I feel lacked idea on how to end. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member una pelicula muy sentimental Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member esta muy buena , obiamente la primera es la mejor Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The flaws this movie contains are easily overlooked and considered non-existent on account of its hard-hitting drama. A great independent and very moving spiritually themed masterpiece. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
