Review of What Rhymes with Reason Film- Available Feb 6th



Tragedy ignites a group of teens on a quest to find a legendary landmark hidden in the wilderness. Together, they navigate the adventure while confronting the darkness within themselves in an attempt to find hope. 


The WORLD'S favorite coming-of-age, faith-adjacent, adventure/drama is NOW available on all major digital platforms to rent and own! Watch 'What Rhymes With Reason' with the whole family today! 


 It’s hard to get our youth to talk about anything sometimes…


What Rhymes With Reason is carefully crafted to not only be a FUN cinematic experience but also encourage much-needed conversations surrounding faith and mental health! 

·        FUN and SAFE... This film has been carefully crafted to not only be a cinematic adventure but also break down walls so we can have much-needed mental health conversations with our kids. 

·        The cinematic and entertainment value found in modern teen dramas without the glorification of wrongdoing like 13 Reasons Why, or the often cheesy or preachy moments of some faith-based films. 

·        A movie from a team that produced a film that Hollywood and even other Faith filmmakers will not. YA family and "Young Group Kids" have a HUGE audience, but are undervalued and underserved by studios because overwhelmingly they believe that they won't sell. Our approach from day 1 as a calling in our team's life is to fill this need for this audience searching for something better!! A movie that provides HOPE in a dark and broken world.

·        $12.99 Price point. Bargain to own for their family.

MY REVIEW


What Rhymes with Reason is a very well-directed and produced film. The cast of characters is very real to their part and the situations they face can be typical of teenage issues. Jesse and his sister, Savannah are dealing with the loss of their father.  And each character in the movie is dealing with their own issues.


The music in the movie was well-planned out and fit well. There were some tense moments, but also some tender ones. The movie got the message across well.


I feel the movie watched by a teenage audience, will be able to relate well to it.  The main thing that stood out to me was friendship and love for each other. They were better together. Depression and panic attacks can be disabling but there is help out there and you're not alone.
