Churches making mainstream films to attract souls

Mordecai Productions — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 18:00:31 +0000

ALBANY, Ga. — Praise the Lord and pass the popcorn. Moviemaking churches are venturing into the cineplex to attract souls who might never set foot in a megachurch. Like Hollywood films, they take on real-life issues in dramatic packages: •A resentful white cop and his black partner struggle with race and fatherhood before taking a lesson in reconciliation [...]

Movie Review: Salt

Mordecai Productions — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 18:11:12 +0000

“Who is Salt?” That question drives this movie’s marketing campaign and truly does propel the film along for its 100-minute runtime. But you wouldn’t be wrong in thinking it sounds like a bit of an identity crisis. Salt is less a thoughtful political thriller than it is an action vehicle for Angelina Jolie, no slouch when [...]

Movie Review: Predators

Mordecai Productions — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 19:53:17 +0000

The less you know about Predators going in, the better. That’s assuming interest—and you know who you are. Fans of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 1987 sci-fi/action hit have been hoping for a worthwhile sequel since, well, that disappointing 1990 sequel with Danny Glover. And the two disappointing Alien vs. Predator films don’t [...]

Hope and Imagination

With ‘Toy Story 3′ now in theaters, it’s a good time to reflect on two of the greatest virtues found in Pixar’s films. Abridged from The Wisdom of Pixar, new from InterVarsity Press. Pixar movies and their themes resonate with us not just because of the attention-grabbing animation, but also because of their stories [...]

Movie Review: Grown Ups

Mordecai Productions — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 20:52:17 +0000

I’m a bit confused about Grown Ups. It’s not that the movie is complicated, nor is it profound: It’s just that it sends mixed signals. I can’t figure out who the film was made for, who is supposed to actually enjoy this movie. And that’s a bummer, because at first I [...]

Dreaming Big for Jesus

Mordecai Productions — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 20:45:53 +0000

Bruce Marchiano, who played the Son of God in 1993’s Matthew, now wants to make a film based on the Gospel of John. But he needs a few dollars—45 million, in fact. In 1993, Bruce Marchiano starred as Jesus in The Visual Bible: Matthew, bringing lightness and humor to a role that many [...]

The Alpha and the Mega

Mordecai Productions — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 20:41:46 +0000

Documentary explores the question, “What is a megachurch?” It shouldn’t surprise that the documentary The Alpha and the Mega (Clothespin Films) is more introductory than groundbreaking. The Alpha and the Mega The film, available on DVD, explores the question, “What is a megachurch?” Director Morgan Mead, a small-town Indiana boy, attended his first megachurch [...]

Movie Review:Toy Story 3

Mordecai Productions — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 16:54:47 +0000

The critics are nearly unanimous in their praise of the animation, the story, the voice work, and the new characters (The Hollywood Reporter calls Michael Keaton’s performance as the preening Ken “terrific”). The one angle that may cause some minor controversy (and perhaps a few nightmares among the youngest moviegoers) is [...]
