My Rating (as a good movie): 4/5
OK, fair disclosure: I know a lot of people involved with this movie, so maybe I'm a bit biased. Nevertheless, I think that if you give this movie a chance, you'll be pleasantly surprised. It really shows what you can do with a good script, good acting, a lot of creativity, and very little money.
The movie opens at the funeral of Faith, who we learn was a devoutly Christian woman. After the funeral, we see her "wake up" in a Heaven that bears little resemblance to our preconceived notions. It appears to be a post-apocalyptic battlefield, and Faith immediately comes under fire. Without giving away any spoilers, I'll say she encounters some Biblical characters, both familiar and unfamiliar, and becomes involved in an epic struggle for the control of Heaven.
This is really low budget, independent moviemaking at its finest. The script is unique and the acting is good. There's genuine humor and genuine pathos. Although it was clearly made with limited funds, the production quality is surprisingly good. Luckily, Indiana and Illinois offered ample post-apocalyptic settings for the shoots.
I really hope to see more from these guys.
