I came from Europe and I went to see this movie, which I thought is another American irrelevant movie, but I realize that this movie has to be seen by each one of us.

As a Christian myself, I'll be way too bias when it comes to movies in this area. I understand that this film will more likely appeal to the Christian audience than the general public, but its heart and intentions are in the right place.

As you can see from the vast majority ofIt's a movie made by christians with the hopes to not only entertain fellow christians, but also spread the message and love of Jesus to nonbelievers. Basically the standard of any christian film. As you can see from the vast majority of reviews on here it doesn't do a good job of drawing in nonbelievers, and will offend all but the most open-minded of them.

This has to do with the way the non-believing characters are portrayed. It paints atheists and other nonbelievers as just bad people, who do nothing but hurt those who are christians, whether they be family or strangers, and constantly try to get them to deny their faith. I get that there are people like that in the world, but the movie doesn't show that there are those who are tolerant of it. Instead painting every non-christian as that. It will offend non-believers for that, and not because of it's message that "God's not dead."

As far as things like acting and plotting go it's not too bad, but could be better. Outside of a select few (basically just the main two characters) the acting could be better. The main plot is very well done, but is surrounded by a few lackluster sub-plots that really just feel like unnecessary intrusions that break up the flow of the movie. To make matters worse only a few pay off in the end. Still the main plot delivers and, outside of the previously mentioned way of how it portrays non-christians, it won't (or rather shouldn't) offend with it's message.

Watching the back and forth between the teacher and student is actually quite entertaining. The movie manages to make a compelling argument for why "God's not dead," and it does so without shoving religious belief down the throats of the non-believing audience. It more or less shows why people follow the christian faith and believe in God, gives a strong argument for why it's right, and tells you to do with that what you will. It's pretty impressive stuff that doesn't come off as preachy.

So at the end of the day the movie isn't perfect, but for christians it will be one empowering film that any non-believer should see. For non-christians it has the potential to offend quite a bit, but if they are willing to accept that it's portrayal of non-christians is flawed, and solely just watch it to see why christians believe the way they do, then they may find an eye opening film. One that might not get them more interested in learning more about Jesus, but will at lest show them that christians aren't lunatics for their faith. My total score for the movie is a 7.5/10.

While God’s Not Dead may not automatically grab your attention as a summer blockbuster, it is good enough to keep your attention unlike the multitude of old Christian B movies out there and shows that this genre really is starting to mature. I really liked the deviation from being a pure philosophical discussion to talking about science and showing how the Bible supports true science, even the Big Bang and Evolution without wasting time alluding to young earth creationist pseudoscientific arguments that so many well-meaning Christians think they need believe in that pseudoscience to be true believers of sacred scripture. If only the pastor of my church, Rock Church in San Diego, would realize this and stick to what the Bible says instead of engaging in spurious young earth creationist arguments and getting himself tied up with personal interpretations of the Bible that the creators of this film have deftly avoided. This is all while creating a film that promotes the core of the Christian message from a scientific viewpoint that engages both physical and spiritual reality for those who believe or are about ready to believe in the one that says no matter what happens in your life and how much you lose, you are not an orphan but a child of God, if you will only believe in me. Don’t choose God or Science, watch the movie and maybe you will find a way to choose both. Expand

I thought much of the acting was good (with some obvious exceptions). I found it worth my time and money. I applaud the courage to make such a film, knowing that it would get panned by those who are very biased against Christianity. Expand

I think some people are being unfair to this movie because of its religious nature; I also think some people are over-praising it for the same reason.

Myself, I enjoyed the movie. Kevin Sorbo was known to me only as Hercules and the Andromeda captain; in this movie, he blew those types away in the first few minutes and started establishing a whole different persona. I love it when actors do this!

And if you think his aggressive atheism isn't plausible, then you haven't been reading enough headlines; the closing credits include a slew of legal cases you can investigate to find that this very sort of thing does go on enough to make this plausible as something that actually happens.

The film is educational. How many other movies expose you to philosophers, NUMEROUS philosophers to stimulate your thinking and entice you to learning more about philosophical thought. Whichever side you take, there's something to interest you. One board full of names is a who's who of non-theistic thinkers. Lots to look up and learn about! And the film takes you through various arguments on one of the most important questions of human existence. How much more educational can it get?

As much information as the film carries, it also has enough emotional stuff going on that I found myself moved or frightened a number of times. This is a dimension of what we all go to movies for.

It's got good music, too.

In sum, this movie gave me a good experience on a number of dimensions. I can't give it my highest rating, because I reserve that for the very best.

Again, speaking as a movie watcher, I think some people are just dissing this movie because they're hostile to its message, as opposed to taking a neutral approach and judging the movie on movie merits.

It's a shame that there are so many self proclaimed "professional" movie critics who actually can identify with the professor in God's Not Dead because their egos won't allow it. I find it it an anomaly that many of these critics, especially that work with the media / newspapers, instantly throw award after award and praise after praise as soon as there are glorified war heroes, soldiers, or the likes. Similarly, any movie with race, color or slavery, or culture is cast in the same glorified light. These are the easy choices. Now when a movie such as this about "God" comes up, whose values our nation was founded on, these critics cower in fear with identifying with the relegious aspect or at the least giving credit where credit is due. It's original, it touches on stigma, makes you think, and is an all around well made movie! Expand

Because, to a unbeliever, this movie is like a punch in the face, it goes against everything the unbeliever holds dear.

I am going to start of this review in a.. non bias way and if you want to here my biased answer it will be at the end of this review.

I'd like to start of with giving theses people some credit... it's hard in this day and age to create a christian film without a lot of help. Although it has its moments where it could get awkward or out of hand it was well executed, the cast was great the scrip was good and how they merged everything together was cleaver. You could feel tension in the air in many parts of the movie.

As for a biased review I soul heartily enjoyed watching this! yea? so what they talked about God and explained the reason to not disprove God. I see a lot of comments saying how trashy it was and how it didn't prove anything and how they can prove atheism themselves... But what they don't understand; many probably because they didn't watch it or they just didn't want to watch it properly with an open mind, they don't understand that IT WAS MADE NOT TO PROVE GOD"S EXISTENCE... BUT TO EXPLAIN HOW IT CAN"T BE UNPROVEN. Also I'd like to add that you can't really get the full message out of this movie but watching it once. Have a good day all you critics.

Not to mention downvoting this review, I'm sure! Heh! But if you want to know what being a Christian is REALLY like in the secular world, this is it. Ignore anyone who claims that Christians aren't margialised in public - it's easy to claim there's no prejudice when you're on the giving end! The amount of students I've spoken to that talk about these sorts of experiences in university is a sad evidence of this film's truth. Expand

This movie was one of the best I have seen in a while. It had likable characters as well as a compelling story. It told a story of a corrupt society from several different view points, and each of those people had a good story to tell.

I can't say for sure if it correctly portrayed all Atheists, but I can say that of the Atheists that I've met and even befriended, it wasn't completely accurate. Though it did hit the nail on the head for some of them.

This movie was able to go from heart wrenching, to heart warming, right back to heart wrenching in a matter of a few minutes.

I enjoyed watching Josh Wheaton counter everything the professor threw at him, though he didn't know all the answers on the spot. But I feel that is what made him more real as a person, and not just some biased Christian who knew all the answers right off the bat.

In conclusion, I would recommend this to anyone looking for an understanding of the Christianity as a whole, but by looking at some on the reviews here, I'd say that they might not take my word for it.

Admittedly, I am giving this movie 10 stars instead of 8, mostly to battle all the negative reviews because I found the film to be refreshing, even as a long-time atheist.
During my college freshman years when I was still a Christian, I had to deal with red state atheist bully professors (usually teaching in red states because they can find more Christians to bully there), and I know there are some teachers who like to test their power over their students' lives by asking their opinions on all sorts of obscure topics, but frequently one is religion, and then downgrading those who disagree with their own philosophies. It DOES happen. I wish there were Christian lobbying and legal groups who would have been there to defend me against some of those types during my own young naive Christian years.
College professors can also abuse their power in other ways (usually sexual harassment, etc.) and it's just a given that students should be protected from that. Nobody questions it.
That being said, I was never some preachy self-righteous Bible-quoting sheep. I was a curious kid from a Christian home who would eventually drop my faith, but certainly NOT because I was bullied for it. I dropped my Christian faith after reading books by Richard Dawkins, Bertrand Russell and Robert Ingersoll (still my personal favorite). But I read those books on my own free time, because I was curious. None of the bully atheist professors even mentioned any of these authors to me. I sure wish they had. Bully professors only want to hurt their students, not educate them. I became an arrogant atheist myself for a few years, and I can't say I was truly trying to educate people during that time either. But the atheist books made me feel free of religious superstition. Most of my hostility towards believers came from my having gone so long myself, feeling trapped by that.
Eventually I realized that faith in an afterlife is probably pretty important in a world that has to deal with death of family members & loved ones. It helps them cope. You know this better when you've experienced it. And belief in a deity is -sadly- also necessary in a world where most people don't just naturally have a high ethical self-standard without it.
While ethics are certainly possible without a god, and civilized behavior, there are few who truly are ethical and civilized without needing some ultimate reward for it, so as best to follow after death. Religion is not all bad. To anyone who thinks we'd have a better world without it, I say: not everyone is intellectually equipped to handle it. If you think religious people are scary when they have a religion, take that religion away, and I guarantee many of them would only get worse.
Some scenes I could *really* do without: cut out the Duck Dynasty crap. There's is not star power the movie needed, and it would have done much better without. Even when I was a Christian, I would have found it icky & distasteful; these people speaking for me.
The Newsboys advertising was a bit too heavy as well. Just a poster here, and a concert there is enough. The atheist professor did not need to die in the end for the message to be uplifting. I think having him convert in frantic desperation, while dying, struck a lot of people as cliche and heavy-handed.
The Muslim dysfunction was very uncomfortable to watch, but here in America, we are loaded with news articles telling us of far worse behavior done in the name of that religion. If it's true, it ain't slander. There was no acid thrown into anyone's faces, nobody's nose got cut off, no honor killings, no suicide bombings, no stonings, no burqa bombs. So yes; it was very uncomfortable, but still tame compared to what the mainstream news reports give us.
As for the philosophical debate; good effort. I'd have liked to see the Christian's arguments be just a little stronger, and I'd have also preferred the atheist professor base his position on logic rather than sordid emotion, but I get that it's a feel-good Christian-happy flick, not a religious nor political documentary. I will cut it some slack. It wasn't as laughably emotional as The Mormon Proposition when reporting relies heavily on crazy wild rumors & off-the-wall schmulz, bordering on deliberate misinfo, but the movie risks coming quite close.
I liked most of the movie but wish I could cut entire scenes out, but if you're an atheist like me and you don't like being preached at, give this film a chance anyway. I didn't feel TOO preached at.

Gods Not Dead was meant to be a christian drama that conveyed a strong message (Which it did). It is a powerful film. One that gets your mind thinking. I do not regret watching the film. Not once.

Every person is Destined to stand before Jesus, whether you love Him or pretend He doesn't exist. The evidence that we are created beings with a body, soul, and spirit is more overwhelming now, than any other time in history. This movie brushes the surface of the depth of these facts. The idea of evolution is completely ludicrous, yet the hate of God, as expressed by the teacher in this movie, drives the lunacy that fills our schools. This movie could have been written with a much stronger message and more evidence, but it is still a great movie. I would also change the title to: "God is still ALIVE!" Expand

What are they so afraid of? I'm a new Christian and went to see the film with my husband who is a non believer and we both enjoyed it. My husband isn't a militant atheist like most of the bad reviewers on here, he just doesn't believe in going to church. This film is for Christians and people seeking without hostility.

A few hostile reviewers claimed that the scenario is so unbelievable. They are out of touch. I've heard of numerous true stories about Christians being hassled by professors in college. In fact there is a great book called "The Insanity of Unbelief: A Journalist's Journey from Belief to Skepticism to Deep Faith" In which the author, investigative journalist Max Davis, explains a similar encounter with a professor humiliating him in front of the class for being a believer.

Christianity is the one religion that it's okay for everyone else to attack. There are constant portrayals of "Bad Christians" in thousands of movies out of Hollywood and some people freak out when there are a handful of Christian films to counter act them without the same huge budgets and star power. It's very reveling really. These people as well as some of the reviewers are acting just like the professor in the film.

Sure the movie is slanted and some of the Characters are one dimensional, it's supposed to be that way just like the thousands and thousands of anti-Christian films are. This film is a great response to all those anti-Christian films and if you're interested in some counter arguments, then it's a great film. If not, go back to the multitude a of anti-Christian films and hate on those for being biased against Christians if fair and balanced is what you demand from every film.

Any time a movie has such polarized reviews you realize that it's going to be controversial. Those whom it spoke to loved it and others felt threatened by it (hence the 0 rating on the reviews).

Very few people have actually reviewed it on it's quality as a film but rather reviewed it based on it's content.

As a film it's very well made and the production quality is top notch. If you go into this movie with a negative attitude and wanting to hate it, you will. There is nothing that the director or actors could have done to make you not hate this movie if you disagree with its content. This is literally one of the only Christian films I've ever even sat through let alone enjoyed. The very fact that all of the negative reviews are angry atheists highlights the point that the movie was trying to make. So before you say it's propaganda look in the mirror and give yourself an honest assessment, do you want this movie to fail solely because it portrays faith in a positive light? If you do, then you are the reason this film exists.

TL;DR: Great production value, awesome arguments, superb acting. Absolutely not your usual Hollywood fare and that is extremely refreshing. Go see it with an open mind! Otherwise, don't waste your time as you will surely miss out on the message.

If you are on the fence about seeing this movie, do it! It is thoroughly worth your money and time.

The acting was well done, particularly on the part of Kevin Sorbo who plays Professor Jeffery Radisson. The production value is excellent. Great camera work; you would never guess that it is a low-budget film.

While the story line is engaging for the most part, and the characters are involving, there were a few things that made me score it as an 8 instead of higher. The part of Josh Wheaton's girlfriend is not sold well, and at first there seem to be many subplots. However, the subplots are tied in well toward the end of the movie.

Overall, I heartily approve. This movie made me laugh and it made me cry. I will definitely see it again.

It provides a rather accurate portrayal of "evangelical atheism," whose followers are not simply content with their own belief in the nonexistence of God but who frequently elevate themselves above others – often using scare tactics, demeaning language, and any other harsh means necessary – to try to make as many others as possible join them in their campaign against God. It vividly depicts individuals who sincerely desire to inquire into the truth of their Maker and His provisions and purpose for them, at the risk of losing the support of their family, friends, and other loved ones, who do not know Him and want nothing to do with Him. It even shows those who are confronted with their own imminent deaths, in the face of which they are finally willing to seek out the God whom they denied for most of their lives.

I did enjoy a lot of the specific topics that were brought up in the classroom with the Christian student who was willing to take a stand against the evangelical atheistic professor. These debates allowed the movie watcher to consider the fact that many who feel that science has "proven" that there is no God are simply placing their trust in those who are regarded as experts in the field, so they put their faith in the notion that some scientist, or combination of scientists, out there has all the answers and can explain all of existence, without there being any need for a master designer. The movie makes the truth of the matter very clear, however, for no scientist to date has ever received credit for having fully explained how absolutely everything, including time itself, could have sprung from absolutely nothing, not to mention how that which is nonliving, regardless of how it originally came into existence, could have ever developed into something that is living, without the aid of an intelligent agent. The movie brought home the point that certain statements made by prominent scientists in this regard have been shown to fall victim to circular reasoning.

I do wish, however, that the movie would have spent more time focusing on the historical figure known as Jesus Christ. Some of the debates in the classroom could have addressed the fact that even the biggest of skeptics and critics, who have performed extensive research into Jesus of Nazareth, have had to admit that he was an actual man who walked the earth around 2,000 years ago, who became nailed to a cross, who appeared to have died as a result of it, and was actually buried, and afterwards was seen alive again by many, who were so convinced that He had truly risen from the dead that they were willing to sacrifice their own lives to proclaim Him to others, with the hope that others would realize their need to trust in His death and resurrection, in order to receive the forgiveness of all of their sins, ensuring that they will one day be with Him – along with all others who put their faith and trust in Him in this life – in Heaven once this life is over. Sadly, the movie did not spend a whole lot of time explaining Jesus as the historical figure that He truly is, but it did nevertheless make it clear that there is an urgent need for everyone to trust in Him to be saved, while touching on the danger that is waiting in eternity for those who do not.

It seemed like a Hollywood A-movie and yet a Christian movie. Well-acted, produced and directed per normal Hollywood standards, I thought. Engaging from start to finish. I was not fidgety in my seat.

The movie was not just the debate.
It seemed like a Hollywood A-movie and yet a Christian movie. Well-acted, produced and directed per normal Hollywood standards, I thought. Engaging from start to finish. I was not fidgety in my seat.

The movie was not just the debate. There was drama. If you are a father or daughter, especially from an Asian culture, and even if you are of Western origin, there is a moment in the movie when you will be moved with a surge of simultaneous emotions (intense sadness, compassion, suspense, hope, etc.), so much so that there is lump in my throat and tears in my eyes as I write this. I can still see the torment on the father's face (an actor whom I have never seen before) and the daughter's anguish.

I would see this movie again if only to see that part again.

The debate is only about 20-25 percent of the movie. There is a bunch of other situations involving relationships, conflicts and life choices we all make, all smoothly and engagingly woven into the main storyline that moves at a very good pace.

For Christians in the habit of watching faith programs, studying the Bible, reading faith books and regularly attending church and Sunday school there won't be much new in the debate. Nominal Christians and non-Christians who are intellectually honest will find the debate interesting, enlightening, even persuasive, and a couple of unexpected twists in the story captivating.

I had never heard a particular Steven Hawking assertion (not mentioning it here because I don't want to spoil the movie for you) which the Christian student uses in the debate. There may be things like that many may not have read or heard before.

What should have struck me long before the movie is how atheists and progressives tend to fast-talk their arguments (apparently to impress the common man with their intellectual superiority by attempting to prevent the man's brain from catching up with what they are saying) while believers and conservatives tend to be slow and deliberative in what they say because they want people to truly understand what they are writing and saying.

Reminds me of a math major roommate I had in the Army who sent a girl a letter with the stamp deliberately affixed to the envelope upside down. He explained to me that the upside down stamp usually is a coded or subconscious message that the sender has romantic interest in the receiver. When the girl took the bait he went through this [faulty] probability reasoning to impress her, "proving" that the stamp was upside down merely by dumb chance.

I believe it will be well worth the time and money you spend on this movie. I hope you won't miss it. If you are a Christian it will help you help others. If you are not a Christian I believe it will indeed entertain you at a minimum or change your life in a way you now think is impossible.

Evolution defined: Man making a monkey of himself. Atheism defined: A man who thinks he is a monkey and believes there is no God. The point of this movie is to show man the error of his way and the need for a Savior/God. There are 2 paths in this life: 1.) The straight and narrow path which leads to eternal life/Heaven through Jesus Christ. 2.) The crooked and broad path that leads to death/Hell through unbelief and rejection of Jesus the Christ. If you are tired of seeing movies with the one sided view that there is no God…man comes from monkeys…who evolved from some single celled organism or some green slime, then see this movie with an open heart and an ear to hear.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think everyone is reading waaaay into this thing. This movie is about a college kid, who in some cases don't even acknowledge God, who is being challenged by his teacher to prove Gods not dead. The teacher calls himself atheist because he said he "didn't think God existed" when in fact he did believe in God, he just hated him for taking his mom at an early age. Things like this can really happen.

Also, not all philosophy teachers are like this. Even the guy at the beginning of the movie who was looking over the main characters schedule and saw that he had a cross necklace on told him that he'd suggest he pick ANOTHER TEACHER in the same dept. So no, I don't believe it makes philosophers look bad.

Does this movie make atheist look bad? Probably, I'm obviously Christian but I've had a few discussions with atheist on facebook who say they don't even believe in God so how could they hate him. Well, yes since that's true it could make someone think all atheist are like that professor. That's why you have to go into the movie with an open mind, not criticise it. Yes I'm a Christian so yes I like it.

The main gist was this: a kid stood up for what he believed in and proved to his teacher that Gods not dead and won his whole class over. This could happen anywhere. I think all the critics already have their mind made up that they don't like the movie only because they don't believe. And as for those who claim theyre Christian, you're reading too far. If you believe in God and Jesus Christ and have a relationship with him, he will provide. He will protect and he'll always be there.

And I'm sorry for those who don't agree with me.

I had a professor much like that in college western traditions and all he did was try and get the girls to love him by feeding into power feminism and he constantly tried to make a fool of those that would make a statement of faith or belief in a creator. The only different with this and real life is the professor wouldn't dare let the student teach in front of the class in fear of looking like an idiot.

This film really wasn't a great piece of cinema and the acting has left a lot to be desired but the storyline was fresh and strong and the characterisation is great. neither too short or too long and it does tear at the heart strings in someThis film really wasn't a great piece of cinema and the acting has left a lot to be desired but the storyline was fresh and strong and the characterisation is great. neither too short or too long and it does tear at the heart strings in some places. Very enjoyable and gets you thinking! Expand

I just watched this movie on Amazon, not my normal sort of movie but thought I'd give it a try.

No one is going to mistake this for something be Spielberg or Wells but it's an enjoyable movie. As some of the other reviewers have pointed

No one is going to mistake this for something be Spielberg or Wells but it's an enjoyable movie. As some of the other reviewers have pointed out it's unlikely that any professor is going to behave as badly as the one portrayed here, but the kind of anti Christian bias shown here is far too common in modern academia.

What's more realistic is how the main character has to make hard choices and stand up for what he believes in. This is more than just a movie about atheism vs theists it's also a coming of age movie.
