- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ธ.ค. 2016
- Pure Flix and Alec Baldwin's brother walk into a Christmas tree....And out popped this movie! With a star studded cast, like Ted McGinley and Brad Stine, is it enough to win the war to save Christmas?! That's what Kevin is set out to find in this in-depth exploration of Christmas with a Capital C.

I love how these movies take a situation where the "Good guys" are legally wrong, and then turn it into standing up for god, and not the constituotion they every other time seem to worship heh
Yeah, that's how insanely bad the writing is in these stupid Christian movies. Honestly, I wish I could ONE movie that isn't Prince of Egypt or King of Dreams that is actually good
not seen king of dreams, but ones I like are.
Book of Eli, VERY Christian film, but still very much kick ass.
Omega code 2: Meggido, think left behind but done well and more sticking to the spirit of the end times, rather then all the baggage like the rapture and such. Also prety well done, special effects and such are cheesy now, but for the time it was pretty good closer to a hollywood budget and plot.
End Of The Line: Weird horror film with a crazy religious message...but I actually liked the plot of it and the twists, though listening to other reviewers, a few have pointed out that there may be a secret twist that changes the entire film if you pay attention.
for worst, I have to say life Life Zone, just pure propaganda with a vineer of horror, with a pretty good twist ruined by the message of the movie and the twist.
wolf wing
I totally forgot about Book of Eli. I also really really like Dogma as well, even though it's a comedy
If you like say goodnight kevin, you might like godawful movies, they are here on youtube I think, they review Christian movies from a atheist slant, right now they did the first 3 tim lahaye films that he did before he started the left behind.
Though warning, as they said in one of their opening profanity stingers, "Warning, this profanity may contain a podcast."
@@jayblade2000 The conjuring is pretty good. Not many people get it's a Christian movie though. Also pirates who didn't do anything...fabulous.
"There's a surprising amount of hocus pocus here." "Native religion?"
Screw you, movie. You don't even have any Natives in the cast. Though I guess we should be grateful there are no "magical Indians."
24:45 Vancouver spotting! It looks like this was filmed in the Lower Mainland and Whistler. Sorry, Canada.
I guess eating vampire books is the new book burning...?
That part cracked me up. One of the best.
Angel Young i ate a book once, it was a cook book. Lol
Man every time I just can't get enough of the "I hope it's not dirty..OH! It's a PureFlix!" 😂😂😂 #dead
This movie
Is one giant
S T R A W M A N
Strawmans make the WORST plots ever. NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, use a strawman plot
Kodo Elder-Groebe Kevin admitted it wasn't one.
***** wait, when? Also, he's not the only one analyzing the film
Kodo Elder-Groebe at the very end in the wrap-up
***** I see. I disagree with Kevin. That antagonist was a total textbook straw man. They used him as an object to argue against rather than portraying an atheist in a reasonable way.
Wait, this movie was produced by Michael Scott? Kevin, how did you not make an Office joke about that?
haha. I think I've made that joke in a God's Not Dead review or something. He produces most of the Pure Flix movies.
“Great Scott!”
It's ridiculous how people consider conservatism and religiosity the same thing. You can be a liberal christian or a conservative athiest.
RecklawTheAmazing it's because most if not all conservative conventions tout god and religiosity above all else. It's a core ideal in the conservative movement. There are indeed conservative atheists, but I'd be willing to wager there are many, many more liberal Christians than conservative atheists.
Vikings488 You haven't checked out the alt-right much, have you? There's a lot of secular outright racists there.
As a liberal Christian I agree.
I concur.
29:11- With logic like that, they might as well be singing "C is for Christmas, that's good enough for me."
Or their other hit, "C Drives Me Crazy"
I’m hearing Cookie Monster sing that.
"That C comes from a name-"
... Okay I'm not a religious scholar, but last I heard... Christ wasn't part of Jesus's name. IIRC, his birth name was just Jesus, and if people wanted to get specific it was Jesus of Nazareth, denoting where he was born. Christ is a TITLE.
/Nitpicking
“The C comes from Christ”, and totally has nothing to do with it being a proper noun like Halloween, or the Statue of Liberty, or California. Even for a title drop trying to justify the name of the movie, that’s a really shitty line; it’s right up there with Collateral Beauty.
Speaking as a very devout Baptist... You are correct.
As someone who knows very little about Christianity, I didn't know that! Thanks for the new info!
"And Mitch, being the little mitch that he is..."
Yeah, why does Christian cinema like your content? Do they just know that the content they sell is bad or are they actually smart enough to know that reviewing movies negatively makes them more popular unlike a certain Savage.
I think that, since they just sell the movies, they are encouraged by someone educating the audience to ask for better content. Like, it only makes their site better, if Christian movies start to get better. That's my guess anyway.
because they are self aware (unlike some parts of Hollywood)
+Jerod Williams mop Derek Savage (actual name) Of cool cat saves the kids fame as well as the conflict with IHE and his misunderstanding of fair use,
Jkop ikr it's like Konami sponsoring Jim sterling
I think they must have realized that without reviews of any kind, be them positive or negative, very few people will even know their movies exist.
I love how the quality of Kevin's jokes hasn't decreased since he started making these...mostly because he is still using the same jokes...but all the same......its just TUBE good!
Drew Carey should walk up and say "Welcome to Pure Flix, where everything is made up and the points don't matter."
The PLOT points, amirite
40 MINUTES!?!?!?!?
The longer the better!
yeah!
40 MINUTES?! IT'S CHRISTMAS!
Like, for real.
that's what she said
"Star of Bethlehem role." Bless you Kevin
May I offer a recommendation for one of you next reviews? I'd like you to review the Oscar-nominated 2006 documentary, "Jesus Camp". It's not exactly like the other films you've reviewed, but more of an eye-opening (albeit disturbing/intense) look at the evangelical indoctrination of kids. It also provides a lesson on why this kind of indoctrination is wrong, or maybe even child abuse. If you'd rather not, or if it doesn't fit the criteria of the films you usually review, that's fine-this is just a recommendation.
P.S., you're videos are great, and your "Left Behind" (2000) review is HILARIOUS!! I hope you have a Merry Christmas, and God bless!! ✝️😃😀🎄
that's definitely more serious then the kinds of Films Kevin usely does, But Kevin is Very insightful and has talked about serious topics before, so hearing his thoughts on that film would make a very interesting video
I'd love to see a review of Jesus Camp! It's one of my favorite documentaries and I love how the directors aren't heavy handed. They show that, yes this is just a sect of Christianity and not all Christians are like that, but the ones who are like that cause real damage not only to the kids but also politically.
“We put up a menorah, then we put up th-a-the Kwanzaa-I don’t even know what that symbol is”
Yeah, how dare they acknowledge and show even the slightest respect to other people and their beliefs! What is this, a country where people can openly express their religions?
Goodnight, Kevin.
Why do you post this on every one of his videos?
P.S. I'm complaining mind you, just asking.
+Ganulous Goodnight, Kevin.
We put up a Menorah... where does it end?
Yeah right. Next thing you know, they will want to ride at the front of the bus.
I'm crying over that Arrested Development reference. that's beautiful Kevin.
Brad Stein's "character" is literally just a paraphrased transcript of his stand-up act. That "sue somebody" crack is almost word for word what he's said on stage.
Does Christian Cinema ALWAYS have to preach about something? Is it not considered "Christian" if someone is not being saved or something about the religion isn't rescued in some way? Can't Christian movies just be a story about something that occurs that just happens to maybe have people in it who are Christians? Can't there ever be random shenanigans, or funny road trips, or overcoming a challenge that does not directly involve the church? I'm not being snarky I legitimately want to know, can there just be for example clean movies that have a story, first second, third, act and all? Can't Christians just be entertained sometimes?
Mom's Night Out
Prince of Egypt.
Captain America.
That would be great. Unfortunately, what are termed "Christian movies" are little more than propaganda or somehow fulfilling an agenda. And that's exactly what their audience wants.
STAR OF BETHLEHEM ROLE. I love it when Kevin makes inside jokes that he knows only a quarter of his audience will get.
Wow! I love your "undercover angel comes back to secretly judge town" movie! I want to see that one! Heck, maybe I'll even go make it.
+SpaceKingDinosaur Please do!
: ) Thanks! I'll be sure to pester you with the result if/when I ever do. Your breakdowns result in a masterclass of things to do and not do when making a low-to-mid budget movie, so I want to do it up right. Keep being awesome!
26:12 can you do movie reviews as Arrested Development episodes from now on? It's just so hilarious
The most engaging part of the movie for me was the boy and the girl skiers, just because I thought the girl was pretty lol.
I couldn't help but notice that neither of those kids were dressed as if they were going to ski. They looked more like they were going sledding. I mean, where were the helmets? and her hat was SO not something anyone would wear to ski... :P plus, there wasn't much of a path through the snow on that trail for skiiing.., :P
Easter starts with a capital E. For the name we get it from: Eostre.
...wait! No... I mean jEsus. Yeah, that's it...
Does the separation of Church and State confuse people? It is actually pretty simple.
I just found your channel an hour ago and I am loving it! You're hilarious and editing is great.
+Roger Tully wow, thanks! That's great to hear!
Kevin, I love the way you look into these movies, complimented by your sense of humor. Though I don't always agree entirely with you, your points are still extremely valid.
That's what I like to hear! Sometimes I put these out and think, "Have I scared away everyone who disagrees with me?"
Not every youtube channel is like this, but my hope it so say the things I think in a reasonable way, but keep it enjoyable enough for anyone, even if they don't agree. I don't want an echo chamber audience! :-)
Thanks for listening to this journal entry reply. haha.
I can't believe that this channel is the only one that I hit like before I even see the vid, and know without question that I'm not going to reverse that decision.
16:40 As one of your few Alaskan fans, I can say it's possible. The weather across the state ranges from a little colder than Seattle (where this is supposedly at) to almost Antarctica (where I live).
"I think I will run off naked, in the snow, in Alaska."
Would watch. Would like. Would recommend to others.
A saygoodnightkevin video that's 40 whole minutes... my Christmas wish came true
Kevin you should write christian movies they are better.
Brandon Roberts I'm Jewish and I would watch
Brandon Roberts I'm Jewish and I would watch it.
5:26 You don't even understand the amount of joy my sister and I felt when you made the *StArRiNg rOle* reference
YOU FAILED THE TEST!!
The Arrested Development reference made my entire week!!! You are awesome!!! 😂😂😂
This was one of your funniest reviews. Keep up the good work Kevin!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MY ENTIRE LIFE. YAAAASSSSSSSSSSSS.
The Pureflix Joke still gets me!! haha
YES. I sure hope this isnt going to be a dirty...OHH its pure flix. I say that in the theater every time we go to see one.
16:50-17:08 Wouldn't it have been hilarious if he'd turned around, and it was an aboriginal family standing there?
I still love Snob’s Brad Stein joke… whenever I see a Happy Holidays sign, I just think of him crying and complaining over it.
I came here looking for a TH-cam video that would make me actually laugh out loud. Kevin you did NOT disappoint. "All the girls are eating these vampire books" XDXDXD
+Micailah Cialella
When you narrated the father son talk with “hey you’re not gonna come out the closet are you” I couldn’t stop laughing.
omg the arrested development reference. dead. Kevin, your movie reviews are the absolute best.
okay...what the heck is wrong with movies and comedians. I swear I've hear Brad Stine before. I could have sworn he was funny in what I heard. And yet....he's horrible in this. same thing goes for Michael Jr. in War Room. I would say maybe stand up comics aren't meant for movies but I saw Bob Nelson in Brain Donors and..he was actually funny in it. So is it just "Christian" films that suck out the funny out of these acts?
Chol .Yerlow Yeah, I think its the scripts. Most comedians make jokes out of daily situations, stereotypes, and flipping narritives on their head. But in these films, you cant do that. They would a)steal the show b)and it would derail from their "Christian Message" (because self referential humor is bad I guess). So there you go, the boring, corny, unfunny sidekick with no personality
Chol .Yerlow yes
you must have caught Brad Stein on his best day because he is the worst of the worst, imo. extremely hateful stand-up AGAINST non-Christians, not uplifting stand-up FOR Christians. He epitomizes Christian victim culture as well as cashing in on the angry Last Real Man Alive stereotype that some people have - everyone with a differing opinion or lifestyle is what's wrong with America to him.
For some reason, "daredan" just made me lose it. Haha, thank you so much for this brilliant series Kevin.
the arrested development bit made me laugh so hard 👌👌 ya got me with that one
That Arrested Development reference thoughhhh! That was great. :)
"I hope it's not a dirty movie... oh! Good! It's Pureflix." xD gets me every time.
One of the better movies you've reviewed. Better than Saving Christmas. Thanks for another great review Kev!
A dog taking a two hour dump is better than Saving Christmas
Great review! & goodnight, Kevin.
27:23 "Hey, don't you dare touch the prop to my strawman!!"
As an Alaskan, the road could match the time of the year.
+TheNinjaInConverse ok! Great! YAY for my Alaskan viewers!
I completely lost it when the review devolved into an Arrested Development episode. Fantastic review, as always. Your politics are always spot-on, too.
Oh, and nice sweater.
hey Kev! Nice editing! Good review as alwayz! 👍👍
6:24, his mom probably read the Anne Rice vampire novels.
Oh right. Because she later became a CHRISTIAAAAN! I remember her being interviewed on Focus on the Family.
Ha ha, I actually might read the first couple books or so. I heard they were pretty decent, at least leagues ahead of Twilight, although that's not hard to do.
Anne Rice is sincerely leagues ahead of Twilight, from a literary perspective. I hope you get a chance and enjoy hem :)
You should do something with the bible reloaded guys. I think you guy's could make some awesome content for both christians and atheists.
Lemmy Mann
Or creationist cat
I'm trying to decide if making Mitch a "good" guy would have been more or less cliche then just making him a "bad" guy.
Michael Scott produced this! "Well, happy birthday, Jesus. Sorry your party's so lame."
I'm not. sure I'll ever recover from the burst of laughter that followed that "star of bethlehem role" comment
I have to stahhhp and go to sleep . You're hilarious love love love
A Movie Night review? Is it my birthday? Yes. Yes it is.
First time Kevin gives a Christian movie a positive review is when they sponsor an episode. How interesting.
I think I've been positive before! The original Left Behind got a pretty favorable review from me! And Christian Mingle. Facing the Giants.
Plus, they bribed into being nice.
TBN is forever showing this movie and somehow I managed to see this movie WAY too many times...I wish I could agree with you on Brad Stine being the best character, but if you've seen his comedy shows (which are awesome, by the way), he's literally word-for-word quoting his own stand up comedy for most of his lines in this movie. Seriously. Search Brad Stine on youtube with the word Christmas and watch his bits on Christmas - it's basically word-for-word. LOL
6:30 "let's find something to thank God for" "I'm trying to but you're not making it easy" *me and my friends* oooooooo
Please review the Christmas Shoes movie
Yes! Please do Christmas Shoes next year!
Love the "Arrested Development" scene!
Yay! Even Kevin says it's not that bad.
@ 2:13 it says the movie is produced by none other than Michael Scott! First Threat Level Midnight, now this?! I'm hooked!
Kevin with a Capital C
I think what would be a more interesting movie is if Christians had to face other Christians. There are 40,000-ish denominations, all with different, often contradicting rules. I know for a fact that the Evangelicals I live around would be very very upset if a Calvinist teacher told there kids there was no way for them to go to heaven (Calvinist are predetermineist).
EmeraldDragon
Honestly I find it weird in quite of a few of these Christian movies they act as if all Christians are the same and have the same exact values and beliefs, when that isn't the case. Rarely do they show any specific denominations or difference between Christian beliefs.
In fact I would argue a lot of "fighting against Christians" comes from other Christians
Man, THIS. SO MUCH. Whenever I hear "America was founded as a Christian nation" I want to say "You do realize at the time of America's founding Catholics and Protestants were burning and murdering the shit out of each other, right? And that who was being burned and murdered changed with the government? That's WHY the founding fathers looked at England and said 'That's not gonna be us.'"
I’ve seen Christmas fight other christians isn’t that what happened in the protestant reformation?
I think the denomination arguments have been getting better. People are understanding what loving their enemies means.
@Jeshex That's the movie Luther. Look it up. It's great.
The funniest part to me is that their title is ALL in capital letters on the box art.
Love the Arrested Development scene!
Your movie reviews never fail to disappoint! We watched this movie last year and didn't like it much.
+Gloria Kluth I'll take this as a compliment, even though it's worded like a put down. Lol.
Haha, my bad! It was supposed to be a compliment. :)
Gloria Kluth haha. I'm just messing with you. Thank you so much!
11:30 it’s things like that is why I love Kevin’s review.
33:01 aww Barkley wanted to be in the review too xD
Even just the title of the movie "Christmas with a Capital 'C'" points to just how silly Christians like the ones in this movie are, the ones who cry that "Christ is being taken out of Christmas because now multi-faith/secular holiday displays exist and some people say 'Happy Holidays'!"
Um, they are aware that, technically, Christmas has nothing to do with Christ in the first place, right? It's a bunch of traditions from various pagan winter solstice celebrations that got mashed together and repackaged as a Christian holiday; it's not the actual historical day Jesus was born. Sure, by all means, Christians should celebrate Christmas as marking his birthday and what that means for them and their friends and families, but anyone who says "Christ needs to be put back in Christmas" as if Christmas was a completely original Christian holiday that has since been ruined by (fill in the blank) is kidding themselves.
that sweater is just awesome!
How in the name of sanity can you make that opening joke about PureFlix somewhere around 10 times and it's still funny?
I am not from Alaska, but I did visit my uncle in Alaska, and after heavy snowfall they do put a lot of salt on the runway, causing the fresh snow to melt.
Arrested Development reference? God bless you
loved the vid
Hey Kevin, awesome job as usual! Could you review October Baby?
Another awesome review (with lots of great Inner Tube references), but what's up with 21:22? Did that bad dubbing make it in the movie?!
merry chrysler
If I wake up my husband from giggling so hard from your videos, it's 100% your fault
DO OCTOBER BABY!!!!
Haha, that forced Blink-182 reference was just awesome.
Teddie deserves an Oscar for acting like he can stand Brad.
Kevin during the Holidays or Christmas season I will wish anyone that happy whatever Holiday they Celebrate in according to that there faith they Practice even if I don't practice that faith anytime I am@ my work during the Holiday season because I am a Humanist so I try to see the Best in everyone Kevin. 😇
Daaad! You threw away my Vogue magazine?! Hahaha
I don't know if you play video games, but the game halo has heavy Christian and catholic symbolism. Just thought that was something that you might like.
I've not heard that
At 26:00 you talk about its YOUR decision to say Merry Christmas, however as I learned recently if you work at Target, Walmart or basically any big chain you HAVE to say Happy Holidays, no matter what the customer says or responds with. Not a big point but I just thought you should know some people really don't have that freedom lol
In my media law class in college, we learned about how "Freedom of Press applies to the one who owns the press." Meaning, an employer (maybe a news paper or tv station) preventing you from printing a story or saying something on the air is not censorship. However, the government preventing you from printing something using your own equipment or resources WOULD be. I believe this also applies to employment for a company. Target is responsible for the actions of its employees while they are on the clock and acting as a representative of that business. They are free to request employees to restrain from saying things to their customers, just as their employees are free to quit their job and start their own chain of stores, or refuse to work for a business that restricts them in that way. Target can't stop you from quitting based on your principles. If they could, it would be slavery, and THAT would be wrong. haha.
That's my two cents on the situation. :-)
When you think about it though, isn't it kind of way to protect minority rights among employees too? If every employee says a non-religious thing, that keeps the employer from discriminating based on religion. That way, if you're Jewish, Muslim, etc, you don't have to worry about greeting someone with a holiday you don't celebrate.
I enjoyed your review
That sweater is hilarious😂😂😂
After Christmas or whenever pleeeeaaaaase review 'I'm in love in church girl
The protagonist looks like an older Tom Cruise.
Kevin what are your thoughts on the aio episode The Living Nativity? (Similar situation and message.)
But Kevin, what about the fact that this was produced by Michael Scott? 2:13
