Faith of Our Fathers
With the Vietnam War raging in 1969, two young fathers report for duty. A man of great faith and a doubtful cynic. A quarter-century later, their sons, Wayne and John Paul, meet as strangers. Guided by letters handwritten from their fathers from the battlefield, they embark onan unforgettable journey to The Wall-the Vietnam Veteran Memorial in Washington, D.C. Along the way, they discover the devestation of war cannot break the love of a father for his son.

[Faith of Our Fathers] gets high points for good intentions but loses most of them for execution.

It's obnoxious, to say the least, to use the Vietnam War as an excuse to affirm the importance of telling all and sundry about Jesus at all times (i.e., "testifying"), under all circumstances.

Message about heroics and bravery comes too late in the movie to overcome the mess that preceded it.

A latter-day variation on the Prodigal Son parable providing proof that God still works in mysterious ways.

Amateurishly faltering, Christian-based saga that preaches to the choir.

"Faith of Our Fathers" doesn't work, and not because of its Christian message.
July 02, 2015
A clumsily told story of friendship and wartime remembrance that has a tough time serving up a halfway believable moment, let alone a moving and powerful testimony about the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

The acting is atrocious, the dialogue a disgrace and the props look like they were designed by a conscripted middle-school drama club.

War drama has combat scenes, heavy-handed message.

This evangelical "Dear America: Letters Home From Vietnam" by way of "The Dukes of Hazzard" takes a mighty ridiculous route to righteousness.
