The 33 Movie
Have you seen the promos yet for The 33 movie?
It looks like its going to be a good one so I wanted to give you the heads up.
(p.s. you’ll want to make sure to bring your Kleenex.)
Remember the national news story a few years ago about the 33 miners who were rescued from the San Jose Mine in Chile?
This story broke in 2010 and yet, the legacy of these brave men lives forever.
They were plunged into darkness during the mine collapse. There was very little water and food to sustain them. Even so, the men stuck together, kept their faith in God, and inspired the whole world with their stories of courage.
Directed by Patricia Riggen, this movie has a strong cast including Antonio Banderas, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Juliette Binoche.
Yes! Hollywood is making another worthwhile movie.
Unfortunately, this kind of entertainment is not the norm anymore.
Call to Action
Let’s send a pro-family message from the American public. We want more inspiring, pro-family, and faith-based movies in the theaters.
I don’t know about you, but in our house, we avoid going to most movies at the theater. The invasion of vampire, paranormal, sophomoric humor, and political agenda movie topics are rampant and a complete turnoff to us.
“The 33” movie comes out November 13. You can check your local theater for times.
***Update: I saw the movie and it was really good. There is some language in it so parents need to be aware before taking their kids.
God bless!
