Believe Me (2014)

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

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

The start of the movie was hilarious with some comedy bits but it kinda didn't last more than 25 minutes , then the serious Drama rigid stuff came out. To be fair it's a nice movie , well written, well casting , the main characters were generally funny. as a good doer myself and activist in charities (so humble, right!! :D ) the storyline sounded a bit more complicated than it usually is. but maybe that's how charities in the name of Jesus works. .. don't know. anyway,, the movie was acceptable would recommend watching it with family on pizza night :D generally, if you're Christian then you'll be jumping up and down out of faith, but if you're something else so you'll see that 5/10 is good score. also i gotta say "Max Adler" this guy is gonna be something i'v seen him on "Switched at Birth" before and he's got a real talent, and here he was the comic whiff that the movie needed.

Believe Me had an awesome trailer and I was very much looking forward to this movie. I must say that I am very surprised at the excellent production value of the movie.The humor in the movie is classy and isn't cheesy.The movie doesn't force you any Christianity but instead is 90 minutes of excellent plot & great direction.This is the first Christian movie that I have thoroughly enjoyed and wanted to watch for a second time just so that I can revisit the wonderful & witty humor.Excellent acting by the 4 guys combined with never seen before Christian satire makes this movie one of my favorites in recent years!

Believe me is about 4 frat brothers who start a fake charity so that they can make money to wipe off a college loan. If this film was supposed to be a commentary on the current state of US higher education they might have had something. Sadly the main characters are just like the self-entitled privileged jocks that are usually painted as the bad guys in 80s films where the nerds finally have their day, so straight off the bat you hate them. The whole thing kind of sounds like a light-hearted college film, right? Wrong. Before I watched it I figured it would contain all of the classic frat characters and hijinx we have come to love from college films like Animal House, and the preview made it look funny. Wrong again. Sadly the film doesn't know whether it should be funny or serious. It pivots between poorly timed jokes that don't hit their mark and moments where we are supposed to see the human side of these asshole characters -and neither works. If it had stuck to being a shameless comedy (and they cast actors with a concept of comedic timing) then this film might have worked. Instead they tried to give it a serious edge and the lack of commitment doesn't pay off. The premise is flawed to begin with and it doesn't help that the script doesn't do anything to set up how and why the audience should believe these characters have the capability to accomplish what they are doing. The thing stinks of lazy writing, amateur directing and below average acting. Don't waste your time.

Believe Me is so "effing" good. Has kind of a slow start, but once the characters (including Nick Offerman as a college professor) get going, I was laughing almost non-stop. The humor that makes fun of religion is spot on. Then, the story takes a more dramatic turn, and they go into all these deeper thoughts about religion and morality in a way that's not cheesy.I'd consider myself a Christian, but I'm not very religious. I really appreciate how the movie makes you think about Christianity without forcing an agenda down your throat. Plus, it's always great when any story makes you laugh but has a smarter, deeper meaning behind it.Go enjoy Believe Me right now.
