War Room (2015)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

Despite the negative reviews I've given to many faith-based movies, I don't have anything against them. The problem is, most of them, including War Room, seem completely unaware of what they’re actually saying and are more interested in preaching at the choir than telling a good story.

Despite their beautiful daughter, castle-like home, and comfortable financial position, realtor Elizabeth (Priscilla Shirer) and pharmaceutical salesman Tony (T.C. Stallings) constantly bicker. As Tony becomes increasingly verbally abusive, his wife worries he is having an affair. She’s at a loss until she befriends elderly Miss Clara (Karen Abercrombie), who tells her prayer is the answer to her woes.

This is one of the weepiest movies I’ve ever seen. Take a sip from the communal wine every time someone sheds tears. Take two whenever the screen cuts away and then comes back to reveal someone’s been crying. In no time, you’ll be rushed to the emergency room to have your stomach pumped. It’d be hilarious if not for the woeful missteps made by director Alex Kendrick every few minutes. When Miss Clara is doing everything but turning towards the screen and telling the audience exactly which passages of the Bible they should be reading, which prayers they should be saying and how screaming at the Devil to “GET OUT!” is the only way to save yourself, it’s basically telling you that no matter what your problem is, a little prayer will solve it.

Diabolically, War Room seems to actually believe what it’s saying. You don’t have to sit down and discuss with your spouse about why your marriage is falling apart. There’s no need to go to counseling. Divine intervention will take care of everything. It’s never explicitly said but by following that train of logic, if your husband beats you, if you’re mugged, or some other disaster falls upon you it’s probably because you just didn’t surrender yourself to heaven enough.

Do you remember H&M's “Coolest Monkey in the Jungle” ad? How it obviously happened because no one at the company showed their design to anyone who was Black? War Room is essentially born from the same sort of situation. This film could have worked under the care of a good writer who understood that the Bible holds important lessons about forgiveness and compassion. There’s a difference between slow, organic, believable character growth and the magic spells conjured in War Room.

It isn’t enough for the film to be fundamentally flawed to the point of being harmful to those who buy it at face value. It also features terrible performances and lasts for an unholy 120 minutes. At multiple points, you think the story is over but a new subplot arrives, and then another. It’s as if instead of cutting material that didn’t enhance the story (which plateaux early and never gets any better) writers Alex and Stephen Kendrick just poured more stuff on top, hoping a big double-dutch jump rope competition would get us all riled up and excited. You thought the old “save the rec center” plot was bad? At least then, there were stakes!

War Room can’t even be a good version of the movie it wants to be. It always stops short of the tough questions and scenarios that should come up - anything to make itself more sanitized and safe. This makes it more annoying and cringe-worthy. War Room is a squirmy experience you can’t wait to end. (On DVD, March 17, 2019)

my thoughts/comments/highlights on anna kendrick's call her daddy podcast episode

love that she is obsessed with bart's bees pomegranate chapstick

i want to see her naturally curly hair!! :(( im glad she's more comfortable with it now and loving it

kendrick is insecure about not having gone to college :((. i agree with cooper that if you know what you want to do and have the resources and pathway in mind to do it, you don't have to go to college but it is totally valid to be insecure about it bc of societal norms

she's been in the industry since she was 10, and she talked about her journey that is further explained in her book scrappy little nobody

her parents thought and realized that she would be okay/"she made it" when she bought her first home in her 20s and brought them to it

brittany texts her "i know you're not gonna replyy but-" a lot

"brittany brings the party, i bring the grumpiness" "please call brittany if you need help with party invitations"

pp4

she has no idea if it's happening

if rebel is adamant about it she would do it

everyone is so busy and successful that it's impossible though to get everyone in the same room but the best reason for her to do a pp4 would be to have and be with everyone in the same room again

HAHAHAH HER GAY/joking PANIC ABOUT KRISTEN STEWART

she didn't tell anyone that she was doing alice darling when filming and even for a while when it came out bc she didn't want anyone to tell her to not do it. bc she just got out of an abusive relationship herself

she literally went to couples' therapy with the abusive ex and thought she was crazy in front of the licensed professional omg

she doesn't have a clear answer for "what are the universal signs of a red flag in a toxic relationship" bc how are you supposed to get into the mind of someone who is trying their best to hide them and emotionally manipulating you? you also don't spend your life looking for those red flags, they just happen like bear traps in a forest (lmao pp2) sooo it's really hard. also sometimes, people question their own memory and sense of reality and have "did this really happen" moments afterwards

she thinks her ex truly believed that he was doing nothing wrong and that she was the crazy one. bc he is not an actor or performer

cooper: it's so hard being with someone that you love for so long and then it suddenly turns abusive or manipulative, like you can't just leave when someone says "why don't you just leave"

cooper: i think it would be weird to not be affected by someone that manipulated you in a way (even years later) bc it distorts your reality

it felt like jumping a cliff suddenly pitching herself to be in charge of the woman of the hour movie. she's terrified that she's "the most experienced person there"

the camera angles in the parking lot scene truly portrayed the dead silence and terror and anticipation of a woman walking alone in the dark in a parking lot with nobody else around

there were a bunch of scenes in the movie where she was glad/noticed how being a woman director made a difference to how it would be portrayed and understood by female audiences about what exactly is happening. she is okay with the 20% of male audiences who prob wouldn't understand

kendrick is very avoidant and not in the mood for dating right now; she knows she has prospects though

she will not even go into a conversation with a man romantically if he has not been or currently in therapy. if they do start something she wants them to do couples therapy despite her previous experiences with it. it is not a guarantee of anything tho!!

what do you bring to a relationship?

anna: i will be the bodyguard and tell the waiter that they got the wrong order. i feel like i'm compensating for my short height

she feels like her humor is so dry sometimes that people mistook it as she being dead serious when she was not.

40 day Love Dare Challenge

Some of you may have heard of the Love Dare, but for those of you who haven't, it's a 40 day challenge for husbands and wives to understand and practice unconditional love. This is a journey you should take, whether your marriage is strong or hanging by a thread.

Day 4

Love is thoughtful

How precious also are Your thoughts to me. . . . How vast is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. —Psalm 139:17–18

TODAY'S DARE

Contact your spouse sometime during the business of the day. Have no agenda other than asking how he or she is doing and if there is anything you could do for them.

I challenge you to take the dare! It's actually harder than you might think. If you stumble on a certain dare, repeat the challenge on the next day. Teach yourself to love, honor and respect your spouse again...

I will post a new dare each day for 40 days. Do you dare to take the chance?
