SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

dom-powells I'll admit that I was skeptical of this movie based on the descriptions I'd read. In the end I was pleasantly surprised by how heartfelt and entertaining it was. I rarely watch so-called "Christian" movies because I usually find them to be saccharine with simple and obvious plot-lines. However, this man-on-the-street style exploration of the meaning of being Christ-followers was unique and honest. The thing that a lot of movie makers do wrong in exploring religion is going in with an intent to undermine the religion, taking parts of the religion out of context and kind of making fun of it. This movie was different in that aspect as they pointed to scripture and discussed the meaning. I especially liked the fact that it was from the perspective of four young males from what seems like a well-to-do part of Texas (Highland Park, TX...not sure if all of them are from there) because they could easily go on making up their own rules about life and religion with little or no challenge, but they took time to really question their own beliefs. My two critiques are that the viewer isn't left with much of an idea of how the guys fared after college (but I guess that's what sequels are for) and the postcard thing was a loose end (there was a brief mention of how it resolved in the end, but it wasn't clear why that was included in the first place). I would recommend this movie to anyone ready to question long-held religious beliefs.

gjpaco2 In a short review: They seemed zealous for the kingdom. There I know for a fact that it is possible to overcome the personal addiction with lust that they have. Anyone can do it as long as they are willing to suffer/abstain/turn away from/ resist and not give in to the temptation and get into the word of God. Few are willing to. That's one reason why the bible says the one must deny himself take up his cross and follow him. It may not be easy, but it is possible. This for me has not been an easy journey to discover, but through the grace of God it is possible. This is just one disturbing message that I got from the video. I also would have liked for them to speak about reading the Bible more and being in fellowship to reprove and build one another up.

DisturbedPixie This documentary depicts 4 college Christian boys, who struggle with their understanding of the bible and others' understanding and how Christianity feels in America. So they traveled to Europe to ask them what they think about Christianity and several topics that can relate to Christianity and living a life for Jesus. Topics included drinking, sex, money, and a few others.These guys admitted they do many things that may get in the way of their "mission" in life. They show us a number of moments throughout their journey that really made them seem ignorant and straight out of the cast of MTV's Jackass (making an ass out of themselves in public, being rude typical American tourists, stealing each others property, and smacking each other around). But then they'd reflect on something that reminded you that these are confused guys trying to do what they think is the right thing. You gotta give them that at least.To me the overall film was a little boring and immature and obviously preachy. That's the point of course, to preach the message of being a real Christian by behaving as a Christian and not just doing a few Christian things every now and then and call it a day. For that, I can respect their message, because there are many Christians in America that behave like that, and they make Christianity look pretty silly in many ways.As a non Christian, and a anti-theist, I looked at their regrets and shame for not knowing what the gospel is and not following it right, as a sad existence. They love some things in life, that hurt no one, and feel such sorrow from that, just because they see it as a distraction from Jesus and spreading the gospel. Spreading the gospel, in my point of view, is self righteous and rude and infringing on other people's beliefs. I do not condone such a thing, and do not see it as a moral thing to do. So in that sense, I'm against the message of the film.Considering though that so much of the sort of Christianity we are bombarded with on a daily basis in America is judgmental and cruel and full of hate, it is nice to see a Christian film that rejects greed. bullying and holier than though tactics that are used by many preachers to gain more followers.

Quag7 Four Christian college brohams go to Europe and reflect on being Christian brohams.My immediate reaction upon seeing this is wondering what these guys were like when the cameras weren't on -- when they were in social situations and the like with pecking orders that they were at the top of -- when they had something to lose by doing the right thing.Then again, I get a sense that this was one of the points of this film; at several points these guys talk about falling short of their own standards, which is admirable enough.I guess in the final analysis, I have to respect the idea that a bunch of college bros decided to take the time and effort to make a film on this subject at a time in their lives that are full of secular distractions. That's got to be worth something.But as a non-religious person myself, I thought something was missing here. What this needs is a followup down the road. I'm curious how many of these guys (some recently "saved" in Christian parlance) are going to be Christians ten years down the road, or if the lessons supposedly learned here about *living it* rather than just going through the motions, are going to be put into practice.The weak link in Christianity, for me, has never been Christ -- it's been Christians. It's been aggressive self-righteousness coupled with hypocrisy and rationalization (they touch on one of my personal peeves, the so-called Prosperity Gospel, one of the ugliest manifestations of modern "Christianity") of Christians themselves that consistently turns me off. I have known more Christians who behaved terribly when not in church than have actually lived the faith they insist guides and informs their spiritual lives.Periodically I run into someone who has been transformed by their faith - filled, as they would say, with the Holy Spirit, in a substantial way. The question is whether or not the guys in this film are, knowing what they know, going to become like this, or whether they're going to just continue living their lives as they have.Anyway, this film is likely to be more interest to young Christians than jaded atheists like myself, but sometimes you learn more about people by listening to them talk among themselves than packaging their religion or ideology into a sales job targeted at you. To that end, this film was interesting and worth my time.My honest feeling upon completing it was that these guys become better Christians -- the Christians they know they can and should be. Of course, that's my feeling about Christians generally, because it isn't when Christians are being Christlike that they get on my nerves, it's when they're talking about how Christlike they are while behaving and living like complete knobs that rustles my jimmies.
