Marc Blucas heads the cast as Kevin Parson, a seminary student stalked by a serial killer in the mode of Saw’s Jigsaw. The shadowy killer specializes in planting bombs on or near his victims. If his targets can’t answer one of the killer’s riddles, a fiery explosions ensues. As the imperiled Kevin, Blucas is either frowning or running. To put it kindly, it’s a narrow performance. Kevin draws the attention of a police psychologist whose brother was killed by the bomber. Justine Waddell co-stars as Jennifer Peters, a supposed law enforcement pro whose interest in Kevin turns downright creepy. Laura Jordan’s Samantha figures prominently in Kevin’s life, too, as the strangely calm childhood sweetheart who suddenly shows up to help him decipher the killer’s identity.I'm always hopeful about faith-base movies but rarely happy with the one that I have viewed. Do you have any favorite faith movies? Were they produced (like this one released by FoxFaith Movies) under the banner of a "faith" movie?

I have heard of this movie, in fact, I've read the book. I haven't made a point to rent the movie, yet, because a lot of Christian movies just aren't up to par. The book was good, but not my favorite of Ted Dekker's. I prefered Blink. (Although with the plot of that book, the movie version would be a difficult feat to pull off.) I would highly recommend the book, though. He's an author I've read a lot by and enjoyed quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I do have a favorite "faith-based" movie (admittedly I haven't seen many) and that's End of the Spear. Such a great story of forgiveness.
What did you think of the ending of Three? Did you have it figured out?
I have not seen thr3e or read the book. I echo your sentiments on The End of the Spear ... I saw it about a year ago and was blown away by it.
ReplyDeleteIf you like mysteries, admittedly strange ones, you might like movie. (If it stays faithful to the book, that is,) And it will probably take less time than reading to book would.
ReplyDelete"Blown away"... that's a great way to describe that movie. I knew the story of Jim Elliot, but not Saint's and I'm so glad that movie was made. What an amazing story!
