The Cokeville Miracle (2015)

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

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

I am an atheist. Some reviewers here seem to believe they speak FOR ME. Atheism does not mean intolerance, thank you very much.If you don't like Zombie movies, don't watch them, don't then complain about them and don't then give them bad ratings. If you don't like them, you have no business critiquing them.If you don't like war movies, don't watch them. Don't complain about them and don't rate them as if you give a crap. Because you don't. You only care about making sure as many people as possible agree with you.If you aren't the kind of christian who likes christian based movies or christian based theories of any kind, then don't watch them and don't talk about them as if you give a darn. You have no business telling christians whether or not they are allowed to watch the kind of movies THEY like.Now... go watch a kind of movie YOU like, and if you end up not liking it, at least it won't be because you don't like those kind of movies. For crying out loud.So be it.

Yes, this movie is based on the real life tragedies and events that led to multiple miracles. There was more than one miracle, hence the title is misleading. If you are looking for something clean to watch and is a tear-jerker, this is the one for you. Yes, this is considered a Christian movie. But why is it that this label makes people want to shun away from the obvious itself? This is why you see low ratings and rationales. But a movie that had Satan worship, demons, spells, witchcraft, dead bike riders are claimed as amazing, but I digress. This is an amazing movie, if you take it for what it is then you can have hope in miracles and be more open to what God is trying to tell you. If you take it for a good movie based on real events, then do so. But know that the events are REAL. Keep that in mind.

***Spoilers***I guess some people can't handle the Truth that there are miracles. This movie frustrated me at the beginning as I was so disturbed by the thought of children dying because of some crazy people. But I am glad I continued to watch it. This film was very moving and yes, very strongly religious. These people prayed and they experienced what they can only explain was a miracle that saved literally everyone's life that day. How amazing is that? I absolutely recommend this movie. Ignore the haters and give it a shot!

I found this movie to be a feel good great movie and yes the acting and effects were not the best I still found it engaging and tugged at the heart stringsThis movie was not made to win awards or make celebrities, this movie was created to let people know of the miracle that happened on that day 30 years ago and I believe it did just that for me.There are a few parts that could've been adjusted probably with a larger budget, but if i wanted CG graphics and special effects I would watch something elseThe fact that I had never even heard of this real life miraculous story until now makes me rate it even higher. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone interested, the world could use a little more movies like this.
