Flywheel
Flywheel is the first film from the creators of Facing the Giants and Fireproof. Used car salesman Jay Austin (writer/director Alex Kendrick) swindles his customers and teaches his assistant salesmen to do the same--but despite the profits, something gnaws at him. When he realizes that his own son doesn't respect him, Austin has a conversion and accepts God into his life. This would be the end of most spiritual stories, but Flywheel finds a warm comedy in the obstacles on the path of righteousness; Austin discovers that being right with God means grappling every day with what it means to be honest. Though the filmmaking is raw (the editing is often clumsy and the cinematography is flat), the story is well-paced, has a gently ironic sense of humor, and Kendrick's central performance is compelling. Kendrick is just as persuasive as a man struggling to emerge from a joyless life as he is when he's rediscovered his faith but finds it constantly tested. Though Flywheel is forthright about its Christian inspiration, the story is about actually living a moral life, not about abstract spiritual truths. The result is a movie that looks towards heaven, but has its feet on the earth. --Bret Fetzer

Customer Reviews

Fantastic!
These are absolutely amazing movies. Our family of seven is enjoying "Flywheel" and "Facing the Giants" multiple times. My husband and I saw "Fireproof" in the theater and were deeply touched. We are SO grateful this church and community has had the conviction, courage, and inspiration to produce messages that are so timely for our world. A lot of lives will be touched through these films when viewers open their hearts to the truths presented. We're giving copies to friends and family.

the truth is what this hurting world needs!
I just saw this in the theater and am sad that in bigger towns and cities this will probably not get the run it needs. I watched it with many in the theater who cried and laughted and said wonderful things -- and with some that it looked like it might have touched but they've been too "touched" by the world and our society - and they put on a blank face, blinked back any sign of tears and said - "oh, it was okay". these are the people, as we all are, who are hurting in this world and too proud or stubborn or sold on the "world" to ask for help, admit they need help or accept help. Please keep them all in your prayers -- and I will keep you in mine! HRS
