To Joey, With Love Review

To Joey, With Love

I had the great opportunity by Icon Media Group to review the true life story of Joey and Rory Feek, in a biopic called To Joey, with Love.  Joey and Rory Feek were a country and Christian music duo since 2008.  For many years Joey and Rory Feek blessed us all with their music.  This is their story, of their love, their faith, and their life.

In 2014, Joey and Rory had put the music scene on hold temporarily to launch a new adventure, the birth of their baby girl, Indiana.  Shortly thereafter, Joey was diagnosed with cancer.  This touching biopic was put together by Rory Feek as well as narrated by him.  It documents their life from before the birth of baby Indiana throughout Joey’s fight with cancer.

I watched this biopic as a person who didn’t know very much of the Feeks.  I can honestly say that this movie is powerful and moving.  Joey and Rory’s faith impacted me greatly and their example of tremendous and strong faith will stay with me forever.  The Feek family will forever be in my prayers. 

I would recommend seeing this moving dedication to a great and talented woman and family.   

Wildflower Movie DVD Review

Wildflower DVD Movie

Rating:  PG-13

Release Date:  April 5, 2016

I had the great opportunity by Icon Media Group to review the upcoming DVD movie,Wildflower. 

Wildflower is the story of Chloe, a young and gifted art student in college who struggles with her difficult childhood and terrible nightmares.  Chloe is very disturbed by her nightmares; however, she is convinced that these dreams must be premonitions or past memories.  These dreams set Chloe on a mysterious adventure to find out what they mean.  Along the way, Chloe meets Josh, a young man who is also haunted by his own painful past and struggling with his faith.  Josh joins Chloe in unraveling the mystery of the meaning of Chloe’s visions and how they relate to a cold case.  Chloe and Josh find a confidante in one another and both find that they can start letting go of the burdens they have held onto for so long.

I enjoyed this movie very much.  I felt that it was written very well and the actors gave a wonderful performance of the characters and story-line.  This movie will leave you on the edge of your seat as it really keeps you guessing minute by minute.  Josh’s struggle with his faith and Chloe’s narrative of what she was going throughout the story were very poignant. 

I definitely recommend this movie.  This movie is PG-13 so it is unsuitable for younger children.  I will note that Chloe’s difficult childhood is explained appropriately in the movie.  The movie website also has a wonderful Discussion Guide available for groups:  www.wildflowerthemovie.com.  The movie comes out on DVD on April 5th, 2016.
