The Journey with Jesus: Film Reviews
Film Reviews by Dan Clendenin
I watched this film because it earned awards at five film festivals, including Cannes and Sundance, but save your time and money—it's horrible. The dialogue is dreadful, the plot unbelievable, the multiple sub-plots distracting, and the teenage sex ridiculous if not perverse. So, the experts are wrong, including Roger Ebert who gave this film 4 of 4 stars. Richard is separating from his wife Pam and works at a shoe store. He meets Christine, a starving artist who drives a taxi for the elderly, as if we should care. I guess the film revolves around the single line of a senior citizen to the effect, "Your whole life could be better, starting right now." Yes, especially if you avoid this film.
