This week’s film review is for the film “Breakthrough” which was produced by Devon Franklin and directed by Roxann Dawson.

Film Description
When Joyce Smith’s son, John, falls through an icy lake, all hope seems lost. But as John’s lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up, and her steadfast belief inspires those around her to pray for his recovery. Based on the incredible true story of one mother’s unwavering devotion, Breakthrough, is an enthralling reminder that faith and love can create a mountain of hope, and sometimes even a miracle.

Review Questions
As this film is a testimony, I have structured the review questions a little differently.

Did I reflect on the 10 commandments during the film?
What Christian standards does the film convey?
Examples of glory and honour and thanks to God
Did the film encourage my faith?
What actions did I do, as a result of seeing the film?
Were there any scenes that caught my attention, in regards to doctrine?
