Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

TheMunkeyBoy The documentary itself held me. I watched right through. I thought it wa put together well in terms of keeping me watching but, I really felt it was also edited together without stuff. Like there was certainly bias on behalf of the filmmakers. Yes, the subject matter was disturbing. Religious finatics and extremists of any belief or religion are scary and they ruin so much for the others. And this film shows us that. Which I know was part of the point. But it did come across that they were painting a picture of that greater whole of this particular religion (Christianity in this case) as being this extreme. A good watch, but it just bugs me that I feel like this is pushing an agenda - a different one than the agenda pushed by those depicted in the movie. Irony or hipocritical? Maybe not completely but, maybe a little of both.

Scott Amundsen If the goal of a documentary is to depict a subject honestly, this movie scores big. Scary big.The basic premise of this film is the ambition of evangelical Christians in this country to marry religion and politics. Or if they aren't seeking after a marriage, they are hinting at a fearsome love affair. Most of the film takes place at a summer camp for evangelical kids called Kids on Fire. The leader of the camp is a woman named Becky Fischer, who frankly looks to me like an overweight Lesbian. And when you get into the nitty gritty of camp life, things get really strange. Fischer has the kids in an auditorium talking to a cardboard cutout of President George W Bush. And it gets even more ridiculous as it progresses: we have a kid named Levi, who sports a rather idiotic- looking mullet and whose Jesus- glaze is so thick you could cut it with a knife, getting home schooled by his mother about how global warming is a hoax and the earth is no more than six thousand years old.If it were not so frightening I would have found it all hilarious. For balance, the directors have given us Christian radio host Mike Papantonio, whose worldview is much more moderate than the maniacs we are seeing in this documentary.As far as what happens to the kids, I would call it abuse, but the kids don't seem aware of it.Someone really needs to tell these people, who are calling for "warriors for Christ," that Jesus already said the final word on that subject:"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God."God isn't looking for an army. He is looking for peacemakers.Anyone who buys the mess that this movie is selling is seriously deluded and needs to study the teachings of Christianity.

Stephen Alfieri "Jesus Camp" is a very good documentary that had me feeling ill at ease throughout the film.In my opinion, it shows children ages 6 - 13 being groomed to preach the word of the Lord. From an early age these children are taught that they were once sinners, they need to be saved by the Lord and they need to "lead an army" to fight to get God back in the schools and to fight abortion.I felt uneasy because when these kids go to camp, they learn about the evil world they live in. They are taught about abortion, and to stay away from Harry Potter, because he is the devil. Thought the film kids are "moved" and cry and try to show the leaders of the camp that they are worthy of the word of God. It made me feel that these kids were being abused, and I felt sick to my stomach.The film does a great job of showing how the Evangelical movement is growing and taking an active role in trying to take over the government. If you think Trump is scary, catch a load of some of the people in this film that are doing God's work.

SnoopyStyle In the American heartland, evangelical Christians are pushing their agenda. It's the Children's Prayer Conference at the Christ Triumphant Church in Lee's Summit, Missouri. Becky Fischer is a Pentecostal children's minister preaching to little kids. She also runs an annual summer camp for evangelical children in North Dakota. She sees the indoctrination of kids in Islam and thinks Christians are falling behind. The movie follows several kids in their religious homes as they go to the summer camp.I don't like the opening with the radio talk show. It sets the movie off in a combative political sphere without putting the evidence out first. I rather the movie show what's going on and let the audience decide. The movie is simply pushing too hard its own agenda which puts this into a he-says-she-says territory. It may be eye opening for non-evangelicals or not from middle America but this movie is preaching to the choir.
