• Synopsis: High school football coach Joe Kennedy had no other choice but to fight. A childhood in foster care followed by 20 years in the Marine Corps was nothing compared to his biggest battle: his commitment to stand for God publicly by taking a knee in prayer after each game. When he was fired, Joe and his wife Denise knew this battle for religious freedom, freedom of speech, and the rights of all Americans was one they would have to fight—no matter the cost. From the director and producers of God’s Not Dead and the producers of The Blind comes AVERAGE JOE, in theaters beginning October 11.

My Review: 

 

This movie is great for the football season and will inspire watchers to take a stand for their own freedom. It was very interesting to watch a marine turned football coach take a stand for his right to take a knee in prayer on the field before the game. He even inspired his football players to participate. The school officials wanted him to only pray in the locker room not out in public. This film is based on a true story. I liked how the film had the reality tv style of the main characters and they were telling a recap of the story and it was like a story time of the past events. Then it would go into the movie scenes. I liked how they explained how the couple met and how he grew up in the foster care system that no one wanted. He faced abuse and came back beaten really bad at one time in the movie. All we will see is really the after effects of the event. There was one other fighting scene with another kid. Other than that, the movie didn’t contain much violence and it’s not too graphic. I liked how they covered his upbringing and I think this helps watchers to learn more about how the man of faith was able to stand for his freedom later on in his life. You can see how this three-year battle with appealing to the Supreme Court brought challenges to their marriage. The biggest fight for his life was for his faith. 

 

 

I also liked the main characters they choose for the role of Joe and his wife, Denise both played by: Eric Close and Amy Acker. Eric Close has starred in TV series, Nashville, Without A Trace, and movies, American Sniper, Christmas at Graceland- Director role, The Mulligan, just to name a few. Amy Acker has starred in Ordinary Angels, The Gifted, Angel, Person of Interest, and much more. I enjoyed the closing song of the film which was one by Danny Gokey- Brave and this was just a reminder to stand up and be brave.
