📝 Our Review

From the producers of God's Not Dead, Do You Believe? attempts something more ambitious: a multi-narrative drama in the vein of Crash or Babel, where a dozen storylines intersect around a central theme. It's an admirable swing. Some connections work beautifully — the parallel between a homeless pregnant woman and a couple grieving a lost child is handled with genuine tenderness. Others feel forced or underdeveloped. The cast is impressive for a faith film: Sean Astin, Mira Sorvino, Cybill Shepherd, Lee Majors, and Ted McGinley all bring credibility to their roles. The street preacher (Delroy Lindo, who's excellent) functions as a catalyst for the action without becoming the focus. Where the film struggles is in juggling all those storylines — with 12 distinct threads, some inevitably get shortchanged. The climactic sequence, involving a bridge collapse that ties everyone together, is a bit too neat. But individual scenes land with real impact, and the film's core question — does your belief actually change how you live? — is worth asking.
