• Synopsis: When David Smallbone's successful music company collapses, he moves his family from Australia to the United States in search of a brighter future. With nothing more than their six children, their suitcases, and their love of music, David (for KING + COUNTRY's Joel Smallbone) and his pregnant wife Helen (Daisy Betts) set out to rebuild their lives from the ground up. Based on a remarkable true story, a mum's faith stands against all odds; and inspires her husband and children to hold onto theirs. 





My Review:

 

I watched this film two times so far. The simple reason is how excellent the film is and the message. This will be a film I will purchase and rewatch again and again. The film showed faith, struggle, and chasing your dreams. David’s business failed in Australia and he was at one time leading Amy Grant. I really enjoyed learning more about the Smallbone’s story touching on for King + Country and Rebecca St. James and their story. Watchers got to learn the journey to America from Australia and how they had to leave behind their friends and family for a better life. They had to learn how to rebuilt their whole life from a new house and they had no job or car. I immensely loved witnessing how they met people from their church and their lives were dramatically changed. Their pastors gifted them a car because they saw how much they were struggling to get by. The pastor kept trying to help them and was trying to be a blessing to them. Sometimes David would get frustrated and upset. I also loved the idea of a prayer wall filled with things they were praying for. It showed Helen’s faith and how she kept the family together. The film features more on the storyline of how Rebecca St. James begin her music career and her struggles and setbacks. 






The films cast featured a large role from Joel Smallbone, Rebecca St. James playing a flight attendant, Lucas Black (NCIS: New Orleans and some Fast and the Furious movies), Candace Cameron Bure (Full House and many Christmas and Mystery movies), a smaller role from Hilary Scott from country band and she sings a little in the film, Lady A, Diesel La Torraca (Ginny & George), Terry O'Quinn (Lost), just to name a few. My favorite surprise in the film was seeing Lucas Black and Candance Cameron Bure and they both had smaller roles a pastor and wife. They both weren’t the star of the film like you’re used to seeing. They were still in the film a good bit. One of the favorite scenes was a joke between Lucas and Joel about how their accents and they both have very strong accents. Joel has an Austrian accent and Lucas has a southern accent. I enjoy watching Lucas in his roles for this very reason. Both I could listen to speak all day. I also liked how at the end they showed real pictures of their family and showed what each on does in their life now. The film begins with an opening message from for Kings + Country and how they chose to tell their story in a film instead of writing a book, which I hope they still write a book! Helen’s book touched a little on their story in her book but it would still be interesting to see it from the kids’ point of view. This film was a very well written film and it’s going to be a big best seller!
