Review of Redeemed

Redeemed (2014)
5/10
I thought it was hokey
1 February 2016
I am not a "railer against God", but I thought this movie was really cheesy in parts. Not only do most Christians not talk this way in ordinary conversation, but the entire emotional affair was so clearly obvious from the start. Paul was supposed to be a good man and husband, and he didn't even TRY to avoid temptation. Really? Invite the woman to your home to meet your family and work on stuff in the study!Show her some American hospitality! As for the woman who played his wife, I am glad she turned her life around, but I have to say that her appearance and demeanor doesn't reflect it. I had a hard time seeing past the sex kitten baby voice, the bleached blonde bed-head hair, the heavy makeup,fake eyelashes, fake tan, obvious lip fillers, and of course the ever present cross nestled between enhanced cleavage. Even her dress for renewing vows was on the tacky short side. I couldn't help but smirk every time she prayed. This probably makes me a bad person, I know. Don't even get me started on her friend! That over the top fakey, Christian manner and hokey accent. "It seems like we're talking' about......whispered in shame....INFIDELITY." I can see her using the exact same tone to say her neighbor is...wait for it....GAY. Shhhhh! Not in front of the children! Not as bad as Fireproof, not as good as Left Behind. Just...meh.
