"The problem here isn't theological; even if it were in service of a different message entirely, the sheer gracelessness of Monteverde's storytelling would be a massive turnoff."

Variety
Variety"A movie that has the haranguing inspirational tone of a marathon Sunday-school lesson."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"The lessons are so pat that every moment in which Pepper makes a good moral choice feels like an act of self-congratulation."
