A sincere and sweet film that elicits far more effortless smiles than one might expect.

Lots of satirical films have a harsh side to them. Not this one. It is all laughs with heart.

Rated: 3/5

It doesn't all work, but it's a genial indie that could provide inspiration to budding filmmakers who need an example of what can be done on a meager budget.

Rated: 3/5

Less Hat, Moorhead

It's surprisingly candid and self-deprecating about the moral issues people might have with this version of Christianity, and it's (blessedly) foul-mouthed and sexually frank.

The AU Review

Behind all the overt buffoonery is a genuine heart and earnestness that further drives home the film's ultimate love of its subject.

Rated: 3.5/5

This was a fantastic watch. It's full of hilarious characters and some serious heart that never ventures into being too sentimental that the comedy is compromised. An honest and clearly personal look into the good, bad, and the ugly of church camp.

Loved the accuracy of weird youth-group life. Must-see for a good laugh at your own expense.
