Introduction

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things" -- Philippians 4:8 ESV

Hi everyone! My name is Wilson Brant, and I look forward to posting helpful movie and book reviews for you to read. My purpose for this blog is to Post reviews on books and movies from many different genres, and time periods for you to have a better understanding of what you will be reading or seeing, and help to you make choices of whether or not they will interest you, or if they will be worth your time, or even if they might be beneficial and encouraging for you. The following is what you can look forward to when reading my reviews:


I will give a brief synopsis of the storyline, with the moral or the general point that the author or director wants to get across. I know that is one of the first things that I look for in a movie or book review because it shows me whether or not I am interested in the story to begin with.

I will state the moral or ethical issues with the movie or book. I know the last thing I want is to be surprised by a bad bedroom scene, or to be overwhelmed by the abundance of colorful language. I also realize that different families have different standards of what they allow in their homes, so I will only be stating what exists in the movie or book without my personal opinion, and you can decide for yourselves from there.

I will explain my opinion of the quality of the book or movie. In regards to the quality of the writing, acting, music, directing, filming, special effects, etc.

Lastly I will compare the book or movie to the best of my ability with scripture. I think that every christian movie or book review should have a scriptural comparison to remind us that we should follow Philippians 4:8 as stated above.

I hope that you will be edified and encouraged by each and every review that I post.

God bless you all!
