Good concept, poorly executed.

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie is pure, full of power of love, a heartbreaker story with dad and his son.
I enjoyed watching it with my every single tear, honestly it approached a deep length in my heart and let me feel there're still more time to forgive, to change and to love.
The movie in general was too short I didn't feel the time passed, the actors were fantastic. It's kind of movies you can watch alone and got ideas and you can watch it with others and got more ideas about life.
The musics are amazing and
the only thing I didn't like is the dad character I was expected the very very monster human ever
! yeah he's bad but not as bad as I thought. personally I experienced the same thing Bart did. Finally, I hope all kids who are suffering from abuse got their help in life.

J. Michael Finley is definitely a star in his first movie. The story and strong supporting actors create a perfect combination to tell the background and motivation of this famous hit song. Watch this movie with your family and be inspired!

I watched this at home on DVD from my public library system. Some call this a "faith based" story but that misses the point. It is about a boy from a small Texas town who loved music and refused to give up on his dreams, in the face of long odds. And in the process needed to forgive his abusive dad.This is a really good movie, especially for anyone who appreciates music and singing. In a stroke of casting luck they found J. Michael Finley to play the lead part of Bart Millard, the real writer of "I Can Only Imagine". Finley happens to be the son of a Baptist minister and who grew up going to MercyMe concerts. And he also happens to be a professionally trained singer with several years' experience on stage singing some of the most famous parts. He of course does all his own singing and is a really gifted singer. Young Bart was always a dreamer but his dad Arthur, played well by Dennis Quaid, was mean to him and often downright brutal. Much of the story is how Bart survived this and found his way into music.Also good is singer Trace Adkins as Brickell, an entertainment manager who helped the MercyMe band get recognition.

Amazing power of GOD to change the heart of an abusive father.
