Dove Review

**This review is contributed by Super Channel—a channel dedicated to providing integrity and accountability in today’s entertainment.

The sequel to the comedy/drama FAITH HEIST, Canadian Screen Awards Best TV Movie winner, is a delightful comedic continuation of the devotion Reverend Benjamin Wright (Jonathan Langdon) and his congregation have to their church and to raising money for the local children’s hospital.  Reverend Benjamin is the serious spiritual advisor to his church members through thick and thin and you will have lots of laughs watching this Christmas Caper that’s Dove approved for all ages.

Another pregnancy test, but it’s false.  Reverend Benjamin’s lovely wife, Vanessa (Sagine Semajuste), is disappointed yet again. Unbeknownst to Vanessa, the Reverend is relieved for very personal reasons… But time to get to the Mall where the generous manager, Marge (Nadine Whiteman Roden), has allowed Reverend Benjamin to play Santa and raise money for the Children’s Hospital.

But there is a conman in the midst… wait… more than one!  And they are plotting to steal the $1M bejeweled Christmas star that is attracting people to the hospital fundraiser.  As the trusted security guard, Chilly (Dylan Taylor), and the conman, Partridge (Ray Galletti) collaborate to steal the star, Reverend Benjamin and his friends come face to face with a gun!  If they are to prevent the theft and save themselves, they must stay strong and united. A series of comedic events and tactics executed by the Reverend and his motley crew will make this one of your favorite movies!

The Dove Take: “Fear is the cage you can get trapped in and love is the key”.  As Reverend Benjamin and his church members team up to prevent a crime, the love of church, community, and Christmas, is the driving force that propels them through the fear.

Wife says “practice makes perfect” in trying to conceive; crooks say anyone trying to stop them will get “smoked, like a holiday ham”;  robbers chase Reverend and his church members throughout the darkened Mall with handguns, however, no guns are ever discharged; verbal threats from robbers; robbers are attacked in a series of comedic scenes (tactics as in the movie, HOME ALONE).
