I enjoyed it. It definitely has an agenda, but it was a creative way of retelling the biblical story of Job.

SHIFTSUPPORT appears to be dead.

Quote from Trashmann View quoted comment :
As others are saying here, there is something fishy going on with this "movie" and the studio behind it, Angel studios has been caught up in controversy lately as being a Christian movie studio that is supposedly banking on the goodwill of its patrons to buy others tickets. They did this with the other movie they produced (Sound of freedom) and then in turn didn't reinvest any of the money back into the studio or to donate tickets supposedly for THIS movie, where they're pulling the same scheme.

On top of all of this , there is another controversy that the majority of the reviews on IMDB are using fake burner acccounts. Padding up the review count and score so that people will be more apt to "claim" a "free" ticket which isn't really free but instead being paid by some poor sap who was on the Angel studios benefactor list and has decided to donate continual sums of money to buy tickets for others who believe this whole system is just totally free.

Very weird situation for sure, remember there is no such thing as a free lunch, someone is paying for this stuff.
I have not heard about any controversy with their paying it forward plan. I'll have to look that up. Angel Studios has always been a crowdfunded studio. They got their start and became well known in the Christian community because of "The Chosen", a TV series about the lives of the disciples. It's actually very well done and acted. Their funding for that series was crowdfunded, and they decided to keep that business model for their other projects (including other series and now movies). They always ask for donations to "pay it forward" for others to watch it. That way they can offer it for free through their own streaming service (although they have since licensed it out to other streaming services as a way to bring more eyes to it). Their whole idea is to share the stories they create with as many people as possible, so asking people to donate so that they can offer their productions free to others. They are just now starting to release films in the theater. The Shift is their first original film. They did not produce Sound of Freedom, but rather became the distributor (after Fox shelved the movie after Disney took them over then sold the rights back to the original film creators). Their other film they released was also made by someone independently. There isn't anything necessarily "fishy" about what's going on, but it is a different business model, and one I can see as being considered "fishy", especially when there isn't a lot of transparency. But nothing you have said is fact. There was lots of promotion to get people to take the free tickets. And their disclaimer when you donate says that they will make reasonable efforts to use the donated tickets (which, I believe, they did from what I saw), but whatever money is leftover would be used to support the studio. There's not reason to solidly say that they haven't. I think the only controversy about the model is how much of the overall gross of the film was from donated tickets vs. paid tickets and the transparency of it all. But it seems that they only counted the donated money actually used for tickets as part of the box office total and claimed that the donated tickets were only a small part of the overall box office take.

The issue is that Sound of Freedom gained more attention than they were expecting. The studio has become pretty popular in the Christian community and they heavily promoted the film, which led to some strong numbers the opening weekend. Then it got media attention about the unexpected box office and the controversies that surrounded it (which had nothing to do with the studio itself). It also brought out the conspiracy nuts trying to use the film to prove their conspiracies (from Disney shelving it to the ridiculousness of showings being canceled to keep people from seeing it). All of which the studio tried to fight back against. I can't speak about the reviews. But that seems to be happening with a lot of movies. Either they make a bunch of fake reviews to keep people from seeing it (which has been definitely been affecting a lot of Disney made films because of their "woke" agenda, according to some) or promoting films like Sound of Freedom which was tied into their conspiracies. I wouldn't doubt it is coordinated, but I don't think it's from Angel Studios.

They're a Christian movie studio so they want as many folks to see their movies as possible.

So, basically, this is Christian propaganda disguised as science fiction to try to rope people in. But it's so bad that they can't get people to actually pay to see it. So, they're counting on the faithful to donate to pay to give away tickets, so that the movie has a decent box office opening. This is the company's entire financial strategy. Most movie companies just try to make actual good movies that people want to see.

It's got a 38% score on Rotten Tomatoes. The audience score is being padded with fake reviews from burner accounts from people who have obviously never even seen the film.

It's your time to waste....
Did you actually watch it?

Pure propaganda nonsense. There's a reason this is "free" and in no way is this "slick".

It's been confirmed that Angel Studios are giving away tickets for free in order to inflate their viewership numbers, which is pretty sus. Gaming the system for sure.

Ok but what you're omitting here is that Angel studios made a 75% gross on Sound of freedom. That translates to nearly 250 million dollars in profits . pure profits.

This studio is supposedly doing these movies out of the goodness of their heart to proselytize the Christian message, and at the start of this journey they claimed that they didn't have any money to make any of this happen as you say the kickstarter stuff.

People have been accusing them of relying on the goodwill of other Christians to keep the money rolling in , keep the faith rolling in , even thoough they have plenty of money in the bank after the sound of freedom big success, and yet they are still asking their good natured fans to buy tickets for others. Something isn't right about that.

They are taking in all of the profits, major profits. The shift ONLY cost 6 million to make, so where is the other 250 million dollars vanished to, and why are they still begging for money?

For a studio that wants to do good in the world supposedly, they sure are profit oriented and relying on the goodwill of others to keep them going forwards instead of ya'know buying the tickets for viewers themselves.

It's not an honest company any way you cut it.
  • Why are they still pretending to be poor, and needing other people to donate money to buy tickets,. nobody knows
  • What happened to all of the 250 million dollars profits from sound of freedom, nobody knows
  • Why are they padding their movies with fake reviews? nobody knows.

1. Your numbers aren't exactly correct. The movie made a little less than $250m worldwide, but that isn't all profits. We're not sure how much they made as the distributor vs. the producers (unless you can find those numbers somewhere). Granted, it still made quite a bit of money, but they didn't just walk away with $250m profit.

2. They have never really said they were some non-profit company. In fact, they sale memberships into the company, using that money as investment in return for shares in the company. Those people received $1.20 for every $1 they invested into Sound of Freedom. They have always considered themselves a for-profit company, even if others have many misunderstood that. They've just gotten their money from investors and people willing to donate instead of selling their content (although, again, I'm not sure how their licensing deals are with other streaming services). This has, admittedly, changed with their theatrical releases. Although Sound of Freedom was the only one, so far, that's done anything significant. But their purpose in "paying it forward" with their theatrical releases is to allow people to pay for someone else who may not otherwise pay to see the movie. How will they invest the money they made from Sound of Freedom? Time will only tell. The Shift was made way before Sound of Freedom came into play, so of course the money from SoF wouldn't have been used to make that movie. And I doubt they'll just now start offering everything for free just because they have that sudden influx as I'd be surprised to see their movies continue to make that much.

3. You're also accusing them (with no evidence) of padding their movies with fake reviews. I already told you that there are coordinated efforts out there by some conservative groups to mess with movie reviews. It's mostly been in the negative attacking movies and TV shows in order to hurt them. I wouldn't doubt it was the same coordinated effort to pad Sound of Freedom with positive reviews. Although, on the other hand, I haven't been able to find anything saying (not less proving) the reviews were padded with fake reviews. Either way, you have no evidence that it was the studio coordinating that effort to create fake reviews.

Uh no it's not did you read anything else posted here? They beg their fans to buy the tickets for other members, its a "pay it forwards" system with all profits going to them ultimately.
