  The Forge 2024

  ★★ Watched 09 Mar 2025

  As a Christian myself, I couldn't sit through this movie for more than an hour. The way the main character finds God feels forced and so unnatural. I think it's weird that it looks like religious promotion disguised as workplace mentorship. I expected a "born again" experience to be more emotional and profound, not as superficial as reading a brochure of Bible verses but OK. These American evangelical religious movies always left me with a sense of discomfort. But I'll gave 2 stars for the gospel.
