kinepeli14 I really liked seeing a persons belief and past wrongdoings shift into awakening & awareness. The negative reviews don't give credit to a person who's whole family/community are "brain-washed" into a belief and then has a personal awakening & in turn challenge their whole family/community beliefs by actually do something about it, as a good thing. Dan Reynolds is doing good.

Sarahlikesfilms What a beautiful piece! I caught this at Sundance and it absolutely was my favorite film of the weekend. It was incredibly courageous and such a necessary catalyst for change. Hopefully the Mormon leaders will see this film and feel a need to listen to the voices of the gay youth sitting in their very pews. I believe that this film will save lives. Our gay youth need to see this film and feel the much needed love and acceptance they deserve. My eyes were glued to the screen the entire time and my heart was broken but also given hope for a future of equality and acceptance. I have no idea how someone could watch this film and walk away with a negative view of it unless they were just searching for a reason to spew hate. I enjoyed listening to Reynolds interview on NPR recently and got further insight in to the reasoning behind the creation of this documentary and could feel his sense of passion and determination. We need more straight allies to shed light on our gay youth and the unfortunate situations they are often born in to due to religion and family situations.I'm looking forward to the film coming out on HBO to share it with my family and friends. Hopefully it will open up some of their conservative eyes and help them to see the sad truth of religious guilt upon our children.What a beautiful film!

DarrenWilcox Both heartwarming and thought provoking. I enjoyed the film and left with a new desire to become more active in my community. I highly recommend this film, especially to those who are seeking a deeper understanding of LGBTQ youth in homes of faith and the difficult circumstances they face. This is a fantastic film for families to watch together and become more educated on teen suicide and how they can become better allies. Kudos to all involved.

moviereviewmagnet A group of straight white males got together to make an outsider film about the LGBTQ community. It has it's touching moments but overall it is slow, boring, and full of story holes. It plays more as an apology letter from a man (Reynolds) who actively worked with the Mormons to discriminate against the gay community and is now worried that this revelation will impact his record sales.It was almost as if the filmmakers just got access to the lead singer of a major band but couldn't find anything else for him to do but speak out about seemingly outdated issues that leads us to a pointless conclusion/solution. Reynolds, who is a bit slow witted and very reminiscent of Andy Samberg's character in 'Popstar'... and also a Mormon, believes that the resolution to the Mormon/Gay conflict is to hold a concert event. Thats it. That sums up the whole movie.I only gave the film a single star because I couldn't rate it any lower. It felt like a complete waste of time.
