35 of 35 · most liked firstO. M. G. I thought you were joking and googled him: “Jonathan Roumie is an American actor known for his role as Jesus in The Chosen, a crowd-funded television series about the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. In 2023, he portrayed evangelist Lonnie Frisbee in the film Jesus Revolution.”

The true story of a national spiritual awakening in the early 1970s & its origins within a community of teenage hippies in Southern California. #Netflix

neutral · AI labelView post →The Erwin Bros seem like shitheads though. They appear on The Babylon Bee and their last movie was “The Jesus Revolution” about Lonnie Frisbee, but the story conveniently stops before Lonnie came out as gay and his fellow pastors excommunicated him and said he was better off when he died of AIDS
neutral · AI labelView post →Mr. Grammer does not care that he never smoked a single cigarette when filming the “Jesus Revolution” movie? How historically inaccurate and a genuine missed opportunity to show humanity at its realist.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is putting me in mind of films or mini-series' that would have gone straight to basic cable TV like TNT, but given a theatrical run by the uber-Christian astroturfing movie studio. Also it's from the director of The Jesus Magic and Jesus Revolution so I'm guessing there's a lot of God in it.
neutral · AI labelView post →I complete misunderstood what Kelsey Grammer's Jesus Revolution would be about. Thought it would be more of a secular movie about hippies in the 60s. Only reason I didn't leave early was because I was trying to avoid dealing with mice at my house.

positive · AI labelView post →The ideas have been around for a while - remember the movie Jesus Camp? That’s almost 20 years old. The formal educational system never teaches about it and media stays away from overt criticisms of the modern Christian revival - unless there’s a positive message (see Jesus Revolution on Netflix).

positive · AI labelView post →JESUS REVOLUTION (2023) ★★ Unusually well made for a faith-based film, with a sunny look that fits its 1960s setting, and a good performance by #KelseyGrammer. The story is weaker and simplifies too much, including its portrait of the controversial preacher Lonnie Frisbee.

neutral · AI labelView post →A really great book that gives a way more accurate description of the history of the Jesus movement that the movie "Jesus Revolution" purported to tell. They left out quite a bit of the real history, especially that of Lonnie Frisbee. www.amazon.com/Lonnie-Frisb...
neutral · AI labelView post →now-a-days even many #Christian films are rated PG-13. (Example: #Jesus Revolution is a fantastic film, Kelsey Grammer should have won an Oscar but I bet #hollywood is bias against such movies)
positive · AI labelView post →I'm an filmmaker who watches all these xian movies. They have been getting better, Cabrini was actually good, Ordinary Angels & Jesus Revolution well made with excellent performances, & Sound of Freedom a blockbuster. But this script of a cool story is awful, and I forgive a lot in an xmas movie.

His daughter (Ally Ioannides) brings home a hippie “Jesus freak” (Jonathan Roumie) and he sees that he’s genuine and gifted. The team-up sparks a movement that spreads for the next several years.
