Pitch Perfect meets Church

Praise ThisPitch Perfect meets Church and you get Praise This. This is a feel good movie meant to instill faith, but it doesn't deliver this in an overbearing manner where you feel faith is being shoved down your throat.The first half of the movie was cringey, but it progressively got better. The acting is good, and Chloe Bailey shines, showing she can Sing (I mean, we all knew she can, but she came to reinforce that point), act and dance.The plot could have been better, and the dialogues needed a more natural feel, but overall, Praise This stays true to being a feel good movie about singing and faith.6/10.

Decent but too much cussin

I was really happy to find a gospel movie on a mainstream platform, but there's way too much cussin in this movie for it to be Christian. I don't understand why you would have a ton of cuss words in a Christian movie. As a Christian, I don't listen to things like that in movies or music or in any other way. Not all black people cuss and not all black people want to hear that. The acting and plot were decent but I really could have done without all the sexual innuendos. I try to support black projects but this one made it difficult only because of the filth that could have easily been left out.

GREAT MUSIC, GOOD ACTING...Sad it's too Real Life!

As I watch this on Easter Saturday, purposely because I needed something to get me in the mindset for a Blessed Easter...well, the music mostly did. The music was really good and as a follower of Jesus I really appreciated it especially this time of year. Music is very important to me; I love and appreciate all kinds, except profane. The actors did very well with a so so script. Of course, anytime you have a story about organized religion there's the hypocrisy which one always hates to see but it's real life and at least the script maker stayed true to real life. That's why I just love Jesus; I respect the Jewish Bible but I follow HIS words that are paraphrased- they're the only part that belong to Christianity. Let Islam take and use the Jewish Bible and the other organized Christian religions if they must but it wasn't what Jesus intended if what HIS words that were written 100 years after HIS death were what HE actually said. So that's what bothers me when films show church service scenes. Besides of course the actual hypocrisy of all organized religions. It's well worth watching for a family show though.
