StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

adonis98-743-186503 When a group of Burmese refugees join the congregation, the pastor of a failing Anglican church attempts to aid them by planting crops and enlisting the help of the community. All Saints has some good intentions and a true story but Corbett as a Pastor? and a Cast of new actors who i didn't buy them at all in terms of perfomances make this film a waste of time and a waste of what could have been a good movie. (3/10)

celebration_kids This movie is based on a true story. I just saw it in the theater with my friend last night 9/1/17. It was the 2nd week of release and the theater was about 40% full, which was nice for a Christian movie. It's about a former paper salesman who has problems with authority. He's tossed in his salesman hat, for a pastorship in the Episcopal church. The Bishop Council start him off easy with a failing church in TN, of about a dozen people. He is meant to be a temporary fill-in while they get ready to sell off the property and close the church. However, he feels a connection and wants to do more than just close the doors and usher everyone out. He decides to hang some flyers around town inviting people in for those last few visits. Little does he know, real people in need are about to show up, and completely change his way of thinking. He and his family go on a journey that will bring them real connection. It's not easy, and God's ways are not always clear. It's not an over the top wow movie, but the quality is good and we both enjoyed this story. It's real life, and people striving to be better. I recommend it for adults. I doubt young kids would enjoy sitting through it for very long, but there's nothing bad in it if you choose to watch it with them. John Corbett is an enjoyable actor and elevates the movie. Barry Corbin plays a cantankerous long time local who also adds depth to the story. I thought they could have gone even further with his character. **SPOILERS FOLLOW** There were times in the movie when John Corbett looks pasty white out in the fields. I thought they were preparing him for a heart attack or something. But, no. That did not happen. The little boy was super pale (not tanned) which was not realistic for a kid supposedly working several days in the fields. He would either be burnt or tanned. So that's just a random detail that didn't fit the story I noticed. I found it interesting that a Bishop stepping down from his position, was enough to pay off the enormous mortgage of the church, and the debt that Rev. Spurlock had personally incurred in trying to save the church. It was commendable the Bishop choose to do so, but why are Bishops being paid that much to begin with? Food for thought. I also was bummed the Council choose to move him and his family away to NY at the end, and let a more seasoned pastor or reverend (?) take over. I know he has remained friends with that congregation, but still would have been nice to let him stay and grow with them. Just my opinion of course, and I realize God could use him anywhere. :)

katetsubata I was pleasantly surprised by the strong acting and professional quality of this film. "All Saints" depicts the struggle of a fledgling pastor to revive a nearly-defunct church, while trying to meet the needs of a wave of refugees from war-torn Burma. While many faith- based films focus on miraculous conversions and battles with the secular, this film dealt with the more prevalent problems many congregations experience. Shrinking membership and aging populations, as well as the financial struggles of maintaining buildings--these are the painful reality for many faith communities. Poised for dissolution, the All Saints Episcopal church is about to be sold off, and the members scattered. Rather than go along with the sale, the people band together--old and new--to try to save the church through growing produce. The story is powerful, and the filmmakers have mixed professional actors and actual congregation members in the cast. This, and the use of the actual church and grounds for the filming location, brings a strong authentic feel to the film. Audiences will resonate with both the dilemma--and the solutions found by the main characters. Kudos to all for a relevant and uplifting film!
