Leave your thoughts about The Case for Christ.
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanAs good a faith-based film as has yet been made. It's designed to appeal to Christian audiences, but well-done enough to have mainstream appeal, too. |
| Christianity TodayKevin McLenithanThe film may be only intermittently successful, but when it takes its own story seriously rather than treating it as a means to an end, it stands among the best films yet produced by the Christian film industry. |
| ReviewExpress.comDiana SaengerInteresting Journey of an Atheist Journalist |
| National Catholic RegisterSteven D. GreydanusThe atheists and nonbelievers in The Case for Christ don't have horns and tails … The believers aren't persecuted, marginalized victims. |
| Huffington PostJackie K. CooperWell made and well acted; the perfect movie for the Easter season. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThis religious-themed drama earns points for proselytizing in more narratively compelling form than usual. But while the film is watchable and features some effective performances, suffice it to say that it isn’t exactly All the President’s Men. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonAlthough it sporadically errs on the side of sentimentality and simplification, The Case for Christ sustains interest, and even generates mild suspense, while offering a faith-based spin on the template of an investigative-journalism drama. |
| The A.V. ClubVadim RizovThe Case For Christ is pretty slow going, tedious rather than offensive, with Strobel repeatedly whiteboarding out the evidence as callback voice-overs add up all the pieces until he’s convinced. “All right, God,” he finally says. “You win.” |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterA film that is decent, sincere and surprisingly watchable. |
| Common Sense MediaMelissa CamachoDrama about journalist investigating faith has edge. |
