Critic Reviews for Faith of Our Fathers

All Critics (11) | Top Critics (5) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (10)

The acting is atrocious, the dialogue a disgrace and the props look like they were designed by a conscripted middle-school drama club.

Guardian
"Faith of Our Fathers" doesn't work, and not because of its Christian message.

July 2, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Sheila O'Malley
RogerEbert.com
It's obnoxious, to say the least, to use the Vietnam War as an excuse to affirm the importance of telling all and sundry about Jesus at all times (i.e., "testifying"), under all circumstances.

Vadim Rizov
AV Club
A clumsily told story of friendship and wartime remembrance that has a tough time serving up a halfway believable moment, let alone a moving and powerful testimony about the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Justin Chang
Variety
This evangelical "Dear America: Letters Home From Vietnam" by way of "The Dukes of Hazzard" takes a mighty ridiculous route to righteousness.

Michael Rechtshaffen
Los Angeles Times
There are times that Faith of Our Fathers feels like Dukes of Hazzard meets 1950s war serial meets every bad buddy movie ever made.

War drama has combat scenes, heavy-handed message.

Common Sense Media
Message about heroics and bravery comes too late in the movie to overcome the mess that preceded it.

Amateurishly faltering, Christian-based saga that preaches to the choir.

[Faith of Our Fathers] gets high points for good intentions but loses most of them for execution.

Rick Bentley
Fresno Bee
A latter-day variation on the Prodigal Son parable providing proof that God still works in mysterious ways.
