A blandly sincere and sluggishly paced drama about a Mormon missionary's return to the South Pacific.

Everything is so extreme here-the storms, the score, the pouring of emotions-that a moment of subtlety is welcome by comparison.

Sentimental biopic about LDS missionary's time in Tonga.

3/4

The cumulative effect elevates "Fire of Faith" beyond what initially feels like a simple series of adventures in the islands, and leaves audiences with a much more thoughtful examination of its subject.

The care and attention that Davis applies to this universal story is so encompassing, so nondenominational, that one need not be a Latter-day Saint to appreciate it.

This was a wonderful sequel to the first movie!! I was glad Kolipoki was played by the same actor, & was pleasantly surprised by the actress who played his wife. Since it was not Anne Hathaway, I was prepared to be disappointed, but not so!! It was a good family movie, made all the more enjoyable knowing it was a true story. Good job to all involved!!!

Love the 1st one. This was very emotional & heart wrenching. It was good to see that they featured a little of Feki Pouha in this movie. Was hoping to see the church being built, probably because the movie would have been 3+ hours long. P.s. Feki is my girlfriends Dad. Not sure why there were 3 children shown. Feki only had 2 children, Joe & Lisa.

We need more movies like this. A true story of how God is there for all of us if we just pray.
