Westerns have faded somewhat in popularity in recent years, but I think when done well, they can really shine. The Redemption of Henry Myers is one such example of how it should be done.Is it possible for men to change? To find hope after falling so far? That's what the movie explores, providing a very enjoyable movie experience. The sets look great, and the story keeps up a steady pace. Both Drew Waters and Erin Bethea rise to the occasion and turn in solid, heart-moving performances. I love the twists and turns the movie takes and it gives a very satisfying ending. I also appreciate the way that the violence was handled. Modern-day Westerns can quickly spiral out of control, but director Clayton Miller exercises wise restraint in what is shown and not shown.Well done Echolight! Please continue to make great movies that families can enjoy together!

One would think after his hideous flop, The Christmas Candle, that Rick Santorum would just return to obscurity. But no! Now he is back with a movie so shockingly bad that it cant even be considered camp. There is zero production value. Zero storyline. Zero plot and zero appeal. If this thing can even be considered a movie then we are all doomed.These poor actors may have destroyed whatever D-list careers they were aspiring to by actually agreeing to star in this junk.If you are try to make Christian values the core if your film genre it may be wise to remember that ripping off paying customers is not one of them.

This film is about redemption and God's grace. Unfortunately, it leaves something to be desired. I am a pastor and I am encouraged by the number of Christian films that are being released. I just wish that more of them would be better movies. This movie is not awful but it is not good, either. The acting is weak, the characters shallow and as predictable as the plot. It seems as if Henry is a bad guy, but a totally bad guy because he just wants to commit armed robbery but doesn't want anyone to get hurt. Someone does and Henry's nefarious cohorts take off without him. Henry accidentally kills the town parson and takes off but hides the money in the church before he does. Henry's partners come after him for their share and a lot bad shooting ensues. Henry is wounded and left for dead. He is found by a widow and her two children. They patch him up, not knowing who he is, and things are gong along pretty good. Until Henry sees a picture of the family and realizes that he killed the husband of the widow he has now fallen in love with. To top that off, the sheriff is the widow's former father-in-law. The bad guys find Henry, the sheriff and Henry, who is wounded again, save the day. They all live happily ever after because Henry s now a good guy. He probably marries the widow and becomes friends with the father or the man he killed. The movie is rife with over acting, bad dialogue, and a weak story. How many people are going to forgive the killer of husband and son and take them into their family? I believe in forgiveness. I know about God's grace, but I also know about human nature. This ending is a bit far fetched. There are better Christian films out there. Sorry, Sen. Santorum, your first film as a producer was not good.

Blatant Christian propaganda from start to finish. Awful. The movie is exactly what it says on the tin. Bad outlaw cowboy commits heinous crimes and is moved to guilt and self-reflection by the extent of his own criminal culpability. Meets up with stereotypical fatherless god fearing family who show him another and better way to live. Ugly outlaw undergoes a physical and spiritual transformation and through 'love' and the 'grace of God' he is both transformed and redeemed.It says a lot about modern American culture I guess that this movie has received a relatively warm reception in that country.I have nothing more to add. If you are a Mid-Western Christian fundamentalist you will love this movie. If you come from any other part of the world you will probably despise it for its blatant hypocrisy.
