So, my pastor asked us to watch this movie and then rate it "Ten Stars" here and on RT because it was "by far the best movie of the decade"
Fine, ok, that is an opinion even pastors are entitled to an opinion.
But as far as rating it 10 stars... It is undeserving.
It holds very well to Genesis 22 with some creative liberties. In that regard it is sound.
However its pacing is drawn-out and very slow for the first half of the movie, the flash backs and story line is somewhat confusing (even for someone that already knows the story by heart) and the production quality is understandingly low.
Honestly very good for a Christian movie, which honestly isnt saying much.
I think that this movie is getting undeserved high ratings by Christians who feel pressured to rate it as a great movie despite being just ok.
