Religious drivel that tries to justify why bad things happen and that it should be so easy to get over. Hard to accept that someone would just get over the death of a child as portrayed in this movie. Don't waste your time, money and intelligence

Coming from an agnostic person, this actually wasn't a bad movie. They finally have represented Jesus the way he should be represented and god as a woman and an African American woman at that. Great pretense and Sam Worthington. Story was good. I like that Jesus is not a majorly religious either. Overall good story. Not bad.

Ok so the naysayers are quick to point out it's a bit on the biblical side of what is an essentially spiritual, quantum physics discussion about being human in the 21st century. Watch and make up your own mind😊
