Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) - 8/10 by John BeifussContrasts the emotional storm raging within a suicidal artist with the picture-perfect, travelogue background of its tropical island locations...
New York Times - 7/10 by Jeannette CatsoulisCharacters need to be more than vehicles for making a point, and a genuinely heartfelt tone is only partial compensation for an inability to convey the complexity of ideas.
User Review - 10/10 by Kevin JTeared up at the end. Made me so sad and pissed off.
User Review - 8/10 by Pedro CA movie set in beautiful Bahamas which depicts rampant homophobia, the religious bigots' efforts to persuade the government to deny gay rights, closted reverends, hypocrisy, and a young artist unsure of himself. The religious aspects lead to the title "Children Of God" but I was more interested in the romance between Johnny and Romeo. Johnny Ferro underplays the character and the actor is not mesmerizing enough to make us care. Stephen Williams is much more dynamic as the duplicitious Romeo. Margaret Laurena Kemp plays the bigoted Lena and I found her character to be truly scary because homophobia is based on ignorance. Another frightening character is her husband, the closeted reverend well played by Mark Richard Ford. Van Brown is the understanding Rev. Ritchie and I wish the movie had given him more time with his preaching of compassion. Couldn't this charming actor have persuaded the ambiguous church members? I listened to writer and director Kareem Mortimer state how he was depicting homophobia in the Bahamas but I think he should have focused more on the characters than trying to make a message movie. Honestly, the two elements don't really jell. A well-told story with interesting characters is the best way to get your message across. We all know that religion is the last resort for homophobia which is well documented in the news, we are more interested in the lives of these characters. The ending is too downbeat and I would have preferred that Johnny defends himself than resort to an afterlife to fulfill his dreams.
User Review - 8/10 by Tero KBitingly accurate description of Christian conservative homophobia and it's destructiveness.
User Review - 6/10 by Coley G"why they call you purple?" LOL
User Review - 6/10 by Joffrey HI didn't like it as much as it was a very good movie. It touches on some challenges facing a black community with regards to gays and Christianity. The ending was a bit of a letdown but well worth watching.
User Review - 6/10 by Lee MCharacters need to be more than vehicles for making a point, and a genuinely heartfelt tone and beautiful lensing is only partial compensation for an inability to convey the complexity of ideas.
User Review - 6/10 by Oscar TPelícula realizada en las Bahamas en donde la homosexualidad y la homofobia son la base de la trama sin embargo, le falta esencia y el final es casi absurdo
User Review - 6/10 by Graham BLa historia es la misma que otra, lo diferente es el contexto, el escenario, la gente.
