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 think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Honestly, I couldn't finish this one, so maybe I'm not the right reviewer to pay any attention to. It got way too preachy for me, so I shut it off with about a 1/2 hr left. If you liked the show "Touched By An Angel" you'll probably like this movie. I don't understand the other reviews gushing over it. Guess I never really liked this type of stuff with its heavy-handed God messages and clichés of "everything happens for a reason" or "all you need is faith.." It was all too fake for me, though I guess lots of people believe in all that. There's the flashbacks to life being idyllic before the tragedies, there's the patriotism, all that sickening stuff. Not my cup of tea at all.

Movies like Saved by Grace have a lot to offer in terms of entertainment value and relevance to recent times. The life of an officer or any member of the military for that matter can be incredibly tough and dangerous. This movie reflects the imperfect period in which we live. Unlike most mainstream drama films that portray Christians Rick, who was played by Joey Lawrence is a character in the film that a lot of people can relate to in the modern world. Rick has problems with every aspect of his life, and believes that there is no purpose for him. Lawrence's performance as Rick was astonishing because he was able to channel that negative energy that Rick was feeling inside after experiencing the loss of his spouse, and the relationship with his son Luke collapsing. The only downside would be the fact that there are no loud explosions, surround sound, or even stunts. This kind of technology is rarely if ever used in drama films especially ones like this movie. Even though there are occasional problems the movie successfully provides us with an emotional roller-coaster ride using the brief action sequences between Rick and a drug dealer in his flashbacks.

The movie known as Saved by Grace is a movie that has been produced and filmed and the results have been very successful. One of the best things about this film is that it highlights the reality that going through a tragedy is definitely not something of an easy process. The situation is clear from the beginning that Rick who is the lead character here is about to seriously hurt himself with a decision one can never take back. Those plans go wrong however when he is taken by surprise at the arrival, of a young woman named Grace who says she needs a ride home to spend Thanksgiving Day with her family. While Rick drives Grace home she goes on a memory lane and tells him her life's story, which leads to shocking revelations about Rick's own life that he can relate to. This film was successfully produced through the precise use and control of camera, music, and lifelike dialogue. In terms of cinematography the depth of field and focus was good. Therefore this movie is highly recommended to families as well as people of all ages. Our society needs more movies with positive messages of hope for the future especially because of the hard times that we live in.

Movie Saved by Grace does an outstanding job showing how traumatic and painful incidents can destroy someone's life. The movie documents the life of Rick who lost the love of his life to a criminal who broke into his home. The decision he is about to make will destroy everything he ever worked for until an incredible woman named Grace comes into his life and shines some light on his path. I love this movie because everything is consistent in the plot, and to top it off the film has a fine use of dialogue. Surprise elements are used in this story, which feels quite fascinating. The movie also allows us to examine the lives of police officers and how they struggle to protect people, which is why a lot of them lose faith in the process. In this story the soundtrack is beautifully composed and causes the audience to feel large amounts of positive energy that they wouldn't find in other films. The pull on the guitar strings creates a pleasant tune that makes the film more enjoyable. The lesson learned in this film is that it's never too late to turn your life around no matter what you have been through.
