not as good as all the hype

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

The first must-see film of the year.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

It's Christian amateur hour again with Uphill Battle as the saintly church lady left by her sinful husband raising two kids as a single mom is concerned her son is starting to show his father's sinful ways. This cast of players you never heard of and aren't likely to deliver performances that wouldn't make it in a high school play.As Shelby Smith goes into prayer several times about her kid and the new man in her life I was picturing her married life and all I saw was Dana Carvey as the church lady. No wonder the husband started using porn and drugs. To be sure in those flashbacks he's not any kind of prize himself. But it takes a great deal of patience to be married to a saint.Some church audiences may like this, not for general consumption.
