Steineded How sad is this?

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

bkoganbing This post apartheid film from South Africa concerns a family of white farmers who've been kicked off their land in Zambia and have now settled in the Natal province of South Africa on an abandoned farm there. Even after being warned by some of the unreconstructed Boers to watch out for the native Zulus both Frank Rautenbach and Jeanne Neilson settle there and face a lot of hardships and one unspeakable tragedy. But their faith yields a harvest just like the potatoes they're growing on their land.Faith Like Potatoes is a Christian film to be sure. But in can be seen by more skeptical audiences without too much complaint. In fact the Mandela and post Mandela South Africa has seen an inclusive government, reconciling even some people that Christians might object to.I'd recommend this except to the most irreligious in the audience.

uniquedale The movie was not deserving of a 1 which is what I gave it. But neither was it deserving of all the 10's that it got. I just thought that I would balance it out.Great use of the locations, and at times there is evidence of good cinematography. The storyline is pure schmaltz and can nauseate. The script needs to be reworked a number of times, and the acting is at best wooden. The leading lady should be lead off somewhere else. It was as if she was acting for a mirror.This movie should not be seen unless you will accept any drivel just because it has some religious message attached to it.

Ina Grobler What a wonderful, heartwarming movie. The characters are genuine and can be identified with. It is an inspirational story leaving one with hope and faith. It does not matter what hardship you are facing, or how impossible a situation looks, if you have faith you will get through it. This does not mean that there will be no pain, in fact the pain is very real and dealing with it is extremely difficult, but not impossible.Our Father God is great and the message of the movie emphasis es that, without forcing it down anyone's throat. Exceptionally well-done Regardt van den Bergh and your cast. I saw the movie 3 times, and will see it again. May God bless everyone involved with the movie, as well as the real Buchan family. I trust that each and every South African will see this movie. If we can all master Angus Buchan's faith and attitude, we will at last see God's peace in South Africa.

jrecords-1 This is a Christian film from South Africa and possibly the best I've seen. I watched it with great open mindness, because a lot of film directors are out to make you believe something that is not right. But at the end of this film, I realized that it had a greater effect on me than Passion of the Christ. It made me realize that God is in control of everybody's lives. You just have to trust Him. He is far greater than Satan and all the evil he puts in our lives. If you pray to Him(and believe in Him), he will help you. I heard this once... Satan is mighty over everything on earth, but God is almighty over everything!! Nothing is impossible to God. My faith has grown in 2 hours.
