Flywheel
Flywheel is the first film from the creators of Facing the Giants and Fireproof. Used car salesman Jay Austin (writer/director Alex Kendrick) swindles his customers and teaches his assistant salesmen to do the same--but despite the profits, something gnaws at him. When he realizes that his own son doesn't respect him, Austin has a conversion and accepts God into his life. This would be the end of most spiritual stories, but Flywheel finds a warm comedy in the obstacles on the path of righteousness; Austin discovers that being right with God means grappling every day with what it means to be honest. Though the filmmaking is raw (the editing is often clumsy and the cinematography is flat), the story is well-paced, has a gently ironic sense of humor, and Kendrick's central performance is compelling. Kendrick is just as persuasive as a man struggling to emerge from a joyless life as he is when he's rediscovered his faith but finds it constantly tested. Though Flywheel is forthright about its Christian inspiration, the story is about actually living a moral life, not about abstract spiritual truths. The result is a movie that looks towards heaven, but has its feet on the earth. --Bret Fetzer
Great Christian family films (2009-07-01)
These three films are entertaining, made on a low budget by dedicated Christians. Why can't we see more movies being made like these?
Good job!
Just what I needed! (2009-07-01)
These three products are excellent. For anyone wanting to get a bit more excited about a relationship with God, or if you have one but seem to be off the rails...even if you've never tried it...
These three DVDs are certainly worth it!
Sherwood church has put their faith into action and come up with an amazing result, which I strongly recommend to anyone!
The quality is great, product was shipped quickly and carefully and is in good condition.
Thanks Sherwood!
Great Movie for all! (2009-06-29)
This was a wonderful heartfelt movie that we need more of.
Anyone who is struggling in their marriage should watch this movie.
Great Moral Lessons (2009-06-10)
All three of these movies are far better than one might have imagined. Even though each one seems to begin a little slowly and somewhat homemade, you will be pleasantly surprised that these stories move into a real-life pace. They are all simple, human interest, true-to-life scenarios which will benefit viewers with positive outcomes. One might even derive an uplifting, life-changing benefit from the lessons portrayed in these movies. Since each one has a different story line, one's favorite will probably be determined by one's personal interest or background. For instance, young married couples might find "Fireproof" the most interesting. All three provide good, moral endings which are suitable even for young children. There is no profanity, violence, or sex. There is, however, some very natural humor. Everyone should see these movies. Take the plunge.
fireproof (2009-06-08)
I have not seen these videos yet. However, I purchased them for my future wife and myself to watch. I have heard nothing but very very good reviews and am looking forward to seeing them. I almost gave them to her early so we could watch them early. I know she will be so excited to see them because it was her who mentioned them to me.
