Let There Be Light

Godawful.

Everyone here emotes like they're acting in an electric toothbrush ad.

While Christian audiences will no doubt embrace this heavily proselytizing drama, secular viewers are likely to feel like they've been accosted by a street corner preacher.

The Sorbos, and benefactor Hannity, eventually soften their scare tactics in old-school tearjerking and a tech/design package that's above-average for the genre.

For its intended audience, "Let There Be Light" should prove an involving bonanza of conservative, Christian-centric ideals, mores and speechifying.

The film stars Kevin Sorbo as Sol Harkens, a world-famous atheist lecturer with all the stereotypical supermodel and sports car trappings of the anti-faith debate circuit.

This film is a little smarter than many of its ilk and doesn't try to deny that.

It's a good message, delivered badly.

Another bit of religious propaganda that wears its intentions on its sleeve, which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't so hackneyed, anti-Muslim, and silly.

Everything is rushed in the movie, including the tear-jerker ending. None of these characters are really believable, but I have to give it up for Sorbo, he does a pretty good acting job, while playing a poorly-written character.
