Faith on Film, Confessions of a Christian Film Critic is a newly published book written by Sorted Magazine’s Film Critic, Andy Godfrey (pictured above). Sorted Magazine’s founder and editor, Steve Legg, explores the content and shares his views here.

Steve writes: You may be thinking, A Christian film critic? Whatever next? A vegan butcher? But as I delved deeper, I soon discovered that this account differs from your average movie review book. In Faith on Film: Confessions of a Christian Film Critic, we are invited into a unique perspective on the world of cinema; one that seamlessly blends faith with film critique.

As I delved into Andy Godfrey’s insightful musings, I was struck by the depth of his analysis and the sincerity of his reflections. Andy offers a refreshing perspective on an industry often criticised for its portrayal of morality and spirituality. With a keen eye for detail and a profound understanding of both cinema and faith, he navigates the celluloid landscape from an unapologetically Christian perspective. It’s as if Barry Norman and Mark Kermode had a cinematic lovechild, armed with a big black Bible and a bucket of popcorn.

You’ll soon discover that Andy’s insights are as refreshing as a Sunday morning lie-in and as entertaining as a matinee double feature. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. But what sets his work apart is his unwavering commitment to exploring the intersection of faith and film. Through his careful critiques and thought-provoking commentary, Andy invites readers to reconsider their views on cinema and spirituality. Whether a devout believer, a film fanatic or a casual moviegoer, this book offers valuable insights that will leave a lasting impact.

So, as you embark on this journey through the lens of a Christian film critic, I encourage you to open your mind and heart to the possibilities that await. Andy offers more than just movie reviews; he provides a window into the soul of cinema itself.
