Best Film from DCTF yet!!!
BrendaJoReutebuch2 June 2018
Warning: Spoilers
I have been familiar with the growing quality of the Dreams Come True Films, company & I must say, this is the most impressive film they have made to date. I do hope that they keep making more good films like this one. I understand that this is their first "faith based" film, even though their other films actually had a moral. I loved, loved, loved all three of the three young leading ladies. Quality/believable performances by each of them. These girls are going to be going somewhere in this industry. Very happy with their roles. Each individual story unfolded on their own, but skillfully intertwined with the other stories. Each girl had to walk their own path. I won't tell you what happened to any of them, but you will be surprised, I believe...I was when I had the opportunity to see it. Can't wait to watch it again.

A MUST SEE FILM
advlandvideo3 September 2018
I had the great pleasure of attending a church screening of A Second Chance. My dates were my mom and my soon to be 12 year old nephew. The plot was simple enough. Three bad girls tangle with the law before putting their past behind them. More unique is the victum and their judge. It could have been a story of juvenile detention, but what we have is a seemingly leniant sentence. I thought the judge was off his rocker. :) What we see are bad girls who lack all compassion, respect or even human decency. They were more bully and thug like than simply misguided youth. Call it faith in God or intuition, the judge trusted them to more or less find their redemption. With a little steering from above, they do just that. From the opening fire sequence, we were all pulled into the film. My nephew was glued to the screen. I found myself thanking him for being a good kid. As their stories unfold, you find their families are misguided. And I started to think that I may have been too harsh in my judgement of them. From there, I will leave the heart breaking journey and emotional roller coaster to you. And it is truly both.

I searched everywhere and couldn't find where I can watch/rent. I'm not a single parent but I'm going through things with my son so it looks like it would be a good one to watch.

Not sure why so many movies are so hard to find.

Such a great film
mamawof67 March 2019
Very well done. Acting , videography. Kudos. To all. Well written scripts. That had me crying and pulling for them to straighten up. Everyone deserves a second chance. This film shows what love and littje compassion will do. Must see. Thus needs to be on pure flix. Netflix. Lifetime. Hallmark. We need good films to watch. To show our children and not be ashamed. This is definitely one I proudly own and have watched numerous times. Needs to be shown in prisons. And other places I feel. Kudos to candy beard for another winner. But I feel this is my favorite by far.

Phenomenal
justin-spicer238 November 2019
This film is nothing less than my title, Phenomenal! The story line is great, the messages are great, the lessons learned are real! The heart felt moments are real!

For anyone that is not directly related to the film or Dreams Come True Films for that matter, and are simply just a viewer, I have to tell you that there is an indescribable amount of passion, heart and soul put into this movie by all that is involved. I am not only privileged, but honored to know and have met most of the amazing people involved in the creation of this film! I would encourage you to give this film a chance, because it will not need a second one.

When you finish, I would also encourage you to view some other great movies by Dreams Come True Films. I would also encourage you to take it one step further! Share this experience with someone! Encourage them to give this film a chance.

Finally, since this is a faith based film....

Just like the girls on movie .... When your Hope has VANISHED, just remember even God can hear CRIES UNHEARD, and he will always keep THE PROMISE to forgive and love you unconditionally!

God Bless!

All need a second chance
zeke19477 May 2024
This is a well made, award winning, independent, Christian film about three young women who, because of some trouble they got into, appear before a Judge who rather than sentence them to jail, sentenced them to perform a good deed, preferably for a stranger. The film then divulges into three stories of how each girl finds their way to our savior and their rectitude. The writing, directing, music and acting are second to none. This is a must see film for any young adult. It shows compassion. It shows that life can change with that compassion and a second chance. Show this to your children, they will thank you for it!
