I Still Believe (2020)

It’s a relief to see a faith-based film that doesn’t aggressively preach to the choir or contain downright sinister implications. I Still Believe seeks to recreate the success that was 2018's I Can Only Imagine by focusing on the music and love story. There are no cartoonish atheists anywhere to be found but considering how formulaic it gets, maybe it could’ve used a few.

Based on a true story, Jeremy Camp (KJ Apa) leaves home for Calvary Chapel College in Murrieta, California. There, he befriends guitarist Jean-Luc LaJoie (Nathan Parsons) and accumulates the confidence to write and perform his own songs. He also begins dating and eventually falls in love with Melissa (Britt Robertson) but her cancer diagnosis jeopardizes their happy ending.

By casting KJ Apa and telling what is a relatively straight-forward romantic drama, the Erwin Brothers hope to appeal to non-Christian audiences. They’ve got the right idea. At points, you might even forget this is a faith-based film. There are a couple of conversations about God and the couple’s beliefs but they come (mostly) naturally. They’re getting to know each other and are both attending a Christian College. The topic's going to come up, as is romance and the power of song. Here’s where we get some highs and disappointments. Shania Twain plays Jeremy’s mother (Gary Sinise plays his father) but she doesn’t contribute to the soundtrack at all. That’s a missed opportunity. On the upside, KJ Apa proves himself a talented singer and guitar player. You believe he would become a star. The fact that he’s handsome and charismatic help. On the kissy-kissy side, the stars play off each other well. They're convincing as a couple.

I Still Believe had a short theatrical run before the pandemic forced it onto VOD. This is an instance where the pandemic kind of did it a favor. Even devoted church-goers would be disappointed after paying anything more than the price of a rental to see this. It has scenes where people play music but it isn’t a musical. There are sparks between the leads but we’re not THAT invested in their romance. Even when the cancer diagnosis comes, our world doesn't feel like it’s collapsing. For the first half of the movie, the biggest dramatic point is whether Jean-Luc will learn the two are dating. I Still Believe is nearly two hours long and aside from a “miracle” (which in hindsight raises several questions), nothing elevates it above "bland".

Not that you should be getting together with people outside of your household right now but if you were and needed a movie that would appeal to both your 13-year-old niece and grandma, I Still Believe would be a good choice. It looks good for a low-budget production (well done, cinematographer Kristopher Kimlin). The chemistry between the stars is convincing. The musical choices are solid. You also won’t remember it down the line. Based on true events or not, this could’ve used something to spice it up. (November 4, 2020)

%2FplyK7RwY4sy9L59n33Q7X3Z7%2FcEy%2ByKSZW This my version of a sequel to the book turned movie Flipped. You do not have to watch the movie or read the book to read my story and if there are any gaps or any introduction to any of the characters, I will talk about them at the end of the chapter. But to talk about it briefly..... It's a story that alternates between the point of view of our two main characters Bryce Loski and Juli Baker. As soon as Juli finds out that she was going to get a new neighbour opposite to her house, she was thrilled. And when she met him for the first time, she instantly had a crush on him. Bryce thought Juli Baker was annoying. She was constantly bugging him at school and at home. She just wouldn't leave him alone. Tree felling, an uncle, egg throwing, an awkward dinner made Juli realise that maybe Bryce was not who she thought he was. And by this point, Bryce comes to a realization that he might actually like Juli. By the end of the story, he plants a sycamore tree in the Baker's yard as an apology and Juli forgives him. What do you think their relationship might be after three years? Read on to find out!

[NEW REVIEW] "Flipped" (2010) ⭐⭐☆☆☆ . . Rating: PG Genre: Comedy, Drama, Romance Runtime: 89 minutes . . REVIEW: While the plot initially seems considerably cliché: “girl likes boy, boy likes girl” underneath all that there’s really something so much more to this story. Put the cliché aside and what you see is that each of the characters have their own background, their own personal journey before they ended up where they are today. It’s not all what we see on the screen. It’s life. In some ways this film touches on realistic points, real points, every day points. And that’s so important because people can relate and engage so much more. It makes you think. It made me think. I loved how it switched from Bryce’s point of view, to Juli’s. Same situations but told rather differently…But it was effectively done. I felt that the tree scenario was like a metaphor for her fondness towards Bryce. The father came up to get her down when she refused to leave the tree and told her so solemnly “It’s time to come down now” – meaning, you know, metaphorically it’s time to let go of Bryce… Yeah…it's not the most exciting film in the world, but it is a sweet one. . . #moviereview #movies #movienight #blog #blogger #blogpost #films #filmreview #review #school #growingup #friendship #younglove #romcom #romance #comedy #callanmcauliffe #madelinecarroll #tree #family

There seems to be a new faith-based film coming out every weekend this month but this one hooked me. The song is amazing and the story has elements of my own toxic and abusive relationship with my father. It did pull on my heartstrings and a few tear drops fell. Well done. #OoH #ICanOnlyImagine #2018 #director #AndrewErwin #JonErwin #actor #JMichaelFinley #MadelineCarroll #ClorisLeachman #DennisQuaid #ILoveMovies #AMCTheatres #shareAMC #AMCMovieWatcher #MoviePass #Friday #WhatDidYouDoToday #FreddieFender (at AMC Lowes)

I laughed. I cried. I was inspired. @icanonlyimaginemovie is the greatest movie I’ve seen so far in 2018. I left the theater inspired. If you haven’t seen it yet, go see it as soon as possible. You won’t regret it. #icanonlyimagine #bartmillard #mercyme #cinema #cinemasaver #follow #followme #like #comment #inspired #madelinecarroll #dennisquaid #surroundedbyyourglory #familynight #movienight (at Cinema Saver)
