Blessed that this story has heart,soul and the power of the lord in which is a true spiritual blessing, but cursed by the way it is directed and sometimes written. This story focuses on a man named Dwight Hawkins who has a gift for spreading the word through his singing, but has a few confrontations in his life such as the church not thinking he's ready and his mother being ill, but in the end it all works out. Here are the massive problems, first of all the editing is sloppy. Yes it's a low-budget film which I know but I've seen better editing with a family album. The camera zooms in way too much, some of the scenes are too disjointed,It had TV cuts in a movie no less Hm( unless it was made for TV but I doubt it), it barely lets a plot finish and I felt like I was on an acid trip watching certain scenes. Next is the dialog, if boys from high school put this up as a project then yeah it's explainable with an F, but a movie, god the dialog was on and off and I didn't understand what they were talking about at times. Next is the characters, we knew so much about characters that were not that important or part of the story, but some we were suppose to know about barely had any screen time. One (note: spoiler) is the mother of Dwight, her time in the movie wasn't even that important, but when she died we were suppose to care? I mean come on she only had three of four scenes ( two when she speaks and the thing that cracked me up, when her son prayed for her, in the next scene she was dead because a flag said funeral. Man the power of prayer doesn't work when you have no sense to call 911. Jeez. All in all that's all I have too say, and if you want to get heal by god ( I am a Christian so I know) the best thing to do is hear for your calling if it's TBN or on the street, because this movie won't move you trust me I moved for the commode that's it.
