Nationally acclaimed evangelist John Luther is the last obstacle in the way of sweeping religious reform in the States. When a U.S. Senator and Luther's own supporters abduct and frame him in the murder of an innocent teenage girl, an unprecedented era of persecution is unleashed. Out on personal recognizance, Luther escapes police surveillance in search of the truth. And suddenly, a once-normal life is targeted by a team of ex-military operatives who wage a relentless campaign to eliminate the incriminating evidence. As evangelist turned fugitive, Luther vows to expose anyone involved with or profiting from the girl's murder; a mission that brings him face-to-face with the coming storm of persecution that will threaten the entire Christian community in America.

Strong and Moving!

TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A movie where the big bad government tries to promote religious tolerance and the loving Christians are forced to put up with it.Can you say delusional?The so-called Christians who make films like this insist on being attacked by the big bad government even though they got their so- called savior Trump in the White House. They insist on refusing change and yet wonder why more liberal Christians or others dislike them. Why they can't make films where the Christians are more like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Niemoller or Martin Luther King Jr is a mystery to me.

There was nothing about this movie that was disappointing in my opinion. The only thing that is disappointing is the number of stars that this movie has by most of the viewers. I don't even think that this movie was in the theaters and now I know why. It speaks the truth! Nowadays it seems that any type of religious movie will never hit the theatres, because "they" don't want anyone to know the truth. The main character and all of the other actors & actresses of this movie did an excellent job and the plot was awesome! If you didn't get what this movie was TRULY telling you, then you will truly be the one lost in the end. Read your bible people; it's all right there. And make sure that you are prepared for His coming.

I thought the movie was well made. I thought the acting was great except for the little girl in the movie. She was looking at the camera in her scene. Other than that the acting was good. I thought the plot was interesting and a refreshing twist from the usual Faith based movie genre. Personally, however, I thought the movie was highly lacking in any real inspiration. I was put out that the priest is shown lighting up a large cigar and that drinking is portrayed as a normal Christian activity for ministers of the Word. That said, I can very well understand someone who stands up for the Word of God being a target of attack by those who would like to see the "order" of things on the religious scene to change. All in all I give the movie a 5 out of 10... equal on pros and cons in my opinion. I didn't hate the movie. I didn't love the movie. Would I recommend the movie? Not really.

This movie began with a great premise. The USA has a rich Christian heritage. Religious freedom in the formation of our Republic has created a nation that is greater than 75% Christian in a pluralistic society. A Senator proposes a vague Religion Bill that will place all religions under the Federal Government, and a popular evangelist opposes the bill, and he is set up.However, that is it! The lighting is poor, the story line is disconnected, and the evangelist is a terrible role model.If you want to see a movie that shows Christian persecution on the university campus, go see God's Not Dead."Persecuted" just doesn't cut it!
