"There are a lot of stories in GOD'S NOT DEAD, but they work because they end up in the same place. The direction and acting are very good. The ending is terrific. GOD'S NOT DEAD is a powerful evangelistic movie."

Below is an excerpt of Movieguide's official review, Click Here for the full report.

GOD'S NOT DEAD is an entertaining, profound Christian movie. Josh Wheaton arrives at college and signs up for the best schedule. He's told not to sign up for one philosophy class, because the professor will crush his Christian faith. He signs up anyway, because the class fits his schedule. Professor Radisson forces each student to sign a pledge that God is dead. Josh refuses, and Radisson tells him he's going to fail him. He even threatens to destroy Josh's chances to get into law school. Meanwhile, a beautiful girl who's come to Christ must battle her Muslim Father. Also, the local pastor is challenged to live his faith. Finally, the professor's girlfriend tells him she too has come to Jesus.

There are a lot of stories in GOD'S NOT DEAD, but they work because they end up in the same place. The direction and acting are very good. The ending is terrific. GOD'S NOT DEAD is a powerful evangelistic movie. Even better, the entertainment value transcends the message. Viewers won't be bored. They will be enlightened and inspired by GOD'S NOT DEAD.
