This is one of those movies that is so bad it's good. There does not seem to be a good actor in the cast yet every single one of them has enough confidence in their abilities to satisfyingly chew scenery...and chew...and chew. Even the script can't help them on this one: between the inexplicably immature wife; teenaged son who can't seem to find the obvious silver lining of having to live in the backyard, electricity-having, all-to-himself playhouse; and a brother who may very well actually just be a robot programmed to recite Bible verses and hymns, there just isn't much dialogue here that resembles actual human speech. All that said this is a great example at not only how not to write, cast, and shoot a movie but it also fails to reach the oh so lofty standards of the made for tv/straight to dvd realm of film making. All in all though this is definitely worth a group watch, and could easily lend itself to bad movie drinking game status.

Not great, but a recommendation.

PROS+ Great display against materialism.+ Wonderful example of families helping each other, and of a mother saying 'no' for the benefit of her son's family, in order to get on their own feet.+ Great display of an intact family which is rare to see in American movies where we rather see the negative examples and warnings.CONSNot great acting. Many of the dialogues are somewhat mechanical, as if someone would have read the script a few seconds earlier and the actors repeat. But the mention of an 'Acting Coach' in the epilogue shows that at least some amateur actors had been used, and from that viewpoint it is quite solid.Gossiping & badmouthing at the beginning of the movie: "Shopping is not gonna help her face".Minute 34: Up to that point Matt had rejected THEOS entirely, and now he is suddenly 'preaching' to his wife. This is not organic and comes without any previous indication of faith.Minute 65: Here he is preaching to his son, and again, it still does not fit.The movie would have greatly benefitted from more spiritual content. We see an ideal family with an apparently strong Christian background and disciplines, but we do not see any Bible reading or worship with both families. There is some help which is rather secular and implies worldly counsel, but that which would have been infinitely more important, spiritual guidance on how to center their life on THEOS in the day-by-day, is entirely missing.Promotion of the book 'Dragon Spell', by Donita K. Pau (similar to the witchcraft books of C. S. Lewis which are highly problematic). This specific endorsement is a very negative surprise.
