There are good Christian movies, even though it’s been said that from production and storytelling perspectives, many Christian movies of the past years are:
1. Usually have an ultra-low budget.
2. The stories are not well developed.
3. The characters are usually shallow and poorly crafted.
4. The acting is pretty terrible—usually way over done.
When you don’t create a well crafted, compelling film FIRST, then no matter how important the message, your response will always be forced, and it’s real potential will never be realized.
With that said, here are 10 good Christian movies that are not half bad!
