Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

hatlad The acting in this movie is superb. And the dialogue seems quite natural - at least most all the time. Very well scripted and directed. And John Ratzenberger is amazing. (I kept finding myself amazed this was the same guy who played know-it-all windbag Cliff Claven in "Cheers." The range of emotion he displays in this movie really shows the depth of his acting. Kind of like comedian/comedy actor Robin Williams did in "The Dead Poets Society.")Possible SPOILER ALERT here, but what I think really sets this movie apart from other faith-based movies is that in the end not quite EVERYthing ends up hunky dory. I'll leave it at that, but it added a sense of real world realism to the movie.But, I'd have to give it an A+ overall. Very well done film and very uplifting story to watch. Full of good instructional points for youth OR adults.

bkoganbing As a celebration of individual craftsmanship The Woodcarver is an interesting film. But it's failure to really find a reason young Dakota Dalby's rebellion it falls way short of the mark. I'm still not clear if the young man in his own mind committed these acts of vandalism for sufficient reason.But vandalize his former church he did and the pastor Anthony Harrison calls in his estranged parents, Woody Jeffreys and Nicole Oliver. They spend more time sniping at each other than paying attention to their son. In fact Jeffreys sees the vandalism as an opportunity for work for his contracting firm and their prefabricated material.The thing is the original carver of the woodwork in the church is still with us and as a craftsman John Ratsenberger takes a great deal of pride. Pride in yourself is a sin, but pride in what you do with your own hands if you're blessed with such a creative spirit should be encouraged.Which is the lesson taught to young Daulby. With a leavening of those initials that have become so popular, WWJD, what would Jesus do? There's considerable debate in our society about that proposition.The Woodcarver is a good tribute to pride in your work and the dignity of a craft well learned and practiced.

V N This movie is just a ripoff of a classic.. The Last Brick maker In America. I mean yeah they changed the story a bit, like woodcarver not brick-maker.. church not school. But really its the exact same story really even some off the script is the same as well. The only difference is this one is a bit more obvious with the religion aspect.. Which i don't know is a better thing or not really.The least they can do is give credit to the movie they stole from. It's real original when you ripoff old movies, the writers should be so proud of themselves.

Tony Heck "You can either lend a hand or get out of the way, I'm pretty sure I know what choice Jesus would make." When high school dropout Matthew, upset with his parents, vandalizes a church his punishment is to help fix it up. When he is sent to help woodcarver Ernest Otto (Ratzenberger) Matthew begins to learn a valuable lesson. As I have stated many times before my biggest problem with the faith based movies are that everything is too perfect and there is no tension. This movie is one of the few exceptions that I have found. This is also the only movie like this I have seen that actually threw me for a loop at the end. This is a very good movie and very much worth watching even if you don't normally like the faith based movies. Overall, along with "What if" this is one of the best faith based movies I have ever seen. I give it a B+.
