Critics Consensus: Come Sunday benefits greatly from Chiwetel Ejiofor's central performance, which is often enough to lift an otherwise uneven drama.

Come Sunday Takes the Challenges of Faith Seriously. We Need More Movies Like It.
The movie itself, overall, feels kind of bloodless.
Ejiofor does valiant work trying to make that enough to justify the film's existence, and he almost succeeds. But I came away from Come Sunday wanting so much more.
Director Joshua Marston has found a compelling Pearson in British actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, who disappears almost entirely inside the preacher's booming cadences and Cosby sweaters.
The movie that's happening in Ejiofor's eyes is far more wracked and compelling than the one that Marston shows us through his own.
A moving and intelligent drama about a schism that tore an American church apart, "Come Sunday" spends 105 minutes contemplating the nature of eternity.
The film rightfully honors the complex theological, ministerial, and relational conundrums it presents.
Takes on a sort of watered down pallor of an episode of "Greenleaf" but without the relieving moments of camp and narrative convenience.
Come Sunday is a rough journey through what happens when you stick to your guns and try to bring a new idea to an old way of thinking.
Real-life story explores faith, spirituality; mature themes.
It's worth streaming Come Sunday on Netflix just for the performances
Ejiofor makes the movie worth seeing, full stop.
