Forty-Seven Days with Jesus

This movie was so much fun! The singing and dancing, the costumes, the sets, and of course the acting were all so entertaining. I think this film is a great way to introduce the Gospel to people. It delivers truth and encourages viewers to seek Jesus in their lives. The portrayal of Jesus and his miracles was heartwarming. The Burdon family was lovable, relatable, and real (and hilarious!) Finding a work/life balance is such a difficult thing, and this movie portrayed that issue in a realistic yet hopeful way. Finding parallels between the Gospel and modern day issues showed that the story of Jesus is just as important today as it was 2,000 years ago. This was a wonderful movie!

Wow!!!!!

Run, don't walk and bring the kids and grandkids! What a beautiful family movie! The acting is super solid. The directing was well done and the kids steal the show!!!! We need more movies like this especially now! Such an uplifting message and real life backdrop! Totally relatable! I didn't know what to expect... Loved it and the music/singing was unexpected and such a nice surprise! Such a wonderful way to tell the story LOVE!!!!!! I really enjoyed the "did you know" stuff before the film even started.... I hope this film makes its way into the lives of families across America and beyond...Bravo!

Was expecting more from this story honestly, based on the name of it. The plot of this movie I liked. But I feel the story of Easter was downplayed and ruined by making it a musical. I didn't feel any emotional attachment to the characters or Jesus to be honest. The Easter story parts felt hokey and like what was happening wasn't important. The main storyline was realistic and probably goes on a lot in families. I thought they could have done better. Want to see The Ark and the Darkness next week. Hoping it is much better. It will probably decide if I see anymore shows from this company. Time will tell.

Found this movie on instagram and saw that they had Yoshi and Catherine from the Chosen. It wasn't until the opening credits did I realize that this IS NOT an Angel studios production. I was a little taken back but was super surprised that there are other independent production companies making good faith based films. The musical portions felt very grounded and I like how it was more serious than Jesus Christ Superstar. My family and I enjoyed it and I especially liked how they jumped back and forth from a real christian family to the Easter story. My kids latched onto the characters and it made it easy to answer all their questions after the movie. It would make a great tool to introduce the Easter story! Happy I got to see this film and I'm excited to see more from this company!

I was intrigued by the story set-up... the man, trying hard, the woman dissatisfied and unyielding at every little thing that she judged him about. How's this going to play out? I was taken aback that the story of the 47 days was done in pop musical style, and rode it out... My wife and I enjoyed watching it on a Sunday afternoon, and had a little conversation about it... who's right, who's wrong, who's side are you on? Any movie that promotes a discussion for understanding has some inspiration to it.

The actors were beautiful, the lines delivered with skill, the characters were all relatable when you account for the need of a story structure. Not preachy, a little predictable, but the message was clear, and showed what is possible when people come from a heart of love and are willing to put away the selfisness of copping and maintaining an attitude.

I'm willing to bet that many of the actors and crew are friends in real life, who decided to create a project together with a lasting positive message to share. Their skill, experience, and training showed up in every scene. Well-made and a welcome discovery on a cloudy Sunday.
