When I get around to creating my list of the most spiritually significant films of 2010, Get Low will certainly be included and will most likely top the list. My review of one of the best films you’re likely to see this year after the jump.
Possibility Pictures is one of the more recent Christian film production studios to emerge in a Post-Sherwood Pictures world. Their first feature-length film, Letters to God, released in theaters earlier this year, and the DVD hit shelves earlier this month. I think it’s time to create a new genre: Christian Pornography.
A couple of days ago, I posted a review of Peter E. Dans’ book, Christians in the Movies: A Century of Saints and Sinners for Patheos’ Faith Forward blog. Dans traces a representational arc that reveals Hollywoods’ portrayal of Christians as gradually moving from sacred to the scandalous from the 1920s to the 2000s. Of [...]
Over the past couple of years, I have frequently written and spoken about the potential of Sherwood Pictures to be a influential model for the future of Christian filmmaking. This influence will come not only through their films, but in the ways in which other communities of faith their production strategies. The first church to [...]
Pop Theology contributor Richard Lindsay and I were talking about reviews of mainstream films that feature gay and lesbian couples in lead roles and how reviewers often argue that these films aren’t about homosexuality or homsexuals but rather about human beings.

It might be slightly twisted of me I know, but I love it when a film disturbs me.

There have been few recent films that I have anticipated as highly as Inception. Thankfully, it did not disappoint…except for one thing.
At times, many of us have reacted to a professional sporting event as if it were a matter of life and death. For professional soccer players in Colombia during the ’80s and ’90s it was. The recent ESPN 30 for 30 documentary, The Two Escobars, focuses on Pablo Escobar and Andres Escobar (no relation) and [...]
Currently in theaters everywhere, you can go see a great Pixar film and even stick around for a fairly good one too. Pixar’s short animated films have been an entertaining throwback to the earlier days of cinema when a cartoon and a newsreel often preceded even live-action dramas, not just other animated features. Until now, [...]
I’ve got a one sentence review of Splice, the latest sci-fi/horror film currently playing in theaters, but it doesn’t an article make. If you really want to read/hear it, you’ll have to swear you’re not planning on watching it…in theaters at least…because if I had to suffer through the film, you do too. For my [...]
