Sound of Freedom - Movie Review

- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- A "dark horse" this week, and picking up steam. Sound of Freedom stars Jim Caviezel, and is based on the true story of Tim Ballard's sting operation against human traffickers. Here's my review of SOUND OF FREEDOM!
The fact that no celebrities, tv network, news, politicians haven’t mentioned this movie, speaks volumes
Tony Robbins too. 😁
An inconvenient truth for them. I agree 👍 💯 with you
Not really, it makes sense why some people don't want to support a movie starring a dude that is very problematic. There are also better films out there that talk about human trafficking and the effects about it.
@@nightwing4429 Better films? Such as?
Nobody on the left will. Dailywire on the right is talking about it! (Politicians wise, idk)
"this film is not about right vs left it's about saving children"
Thank you JJ
Unfortunately, it is about right and left when border security becomes political.
@@SlappyMcgeee it is about left vs right when it comes to disney holding the movie back 5 years with no intent of showing it or the leftist media calling it fascist.
And yet, the left is trying to bury it.
@@SlappyMcgeeethe fact that you have to put a political side on whether it's wrong, or good to traffic children speaks volumes. This is beyond a left versus right thing, a Republican versus Democrat, this is human trafficking, I'm pretty sure the last thing on the minds of these people who were captured and sold off into slavery is whether or not they're going to be freed by a Republican or a Democrat, the fact is the minute people put aside their differences and realize the bigger picture, we can finally move forward but until thats.
It absolutely is about right and left. The left specifically wants to groom children. There are transexual men in schools giving lap dances to kids wearing Rainbow-flag t-shirts. Their LGBTQ allies said it themselves. "We are here, we are queer, we are coming for your children." it's right vs. left. Its good vs. evil. Destroy evil.
Saw this movie last night. Definitely shook up everyone in the theater. At the end of the movie, no one stood up, no one talked, no one went on their phones; it was just silent contemplation. I've never been in a theater where so many people were touched by one simple movie. The message needs to be heard and this movie does a perfect job of doing that.
Wow

Mission accomplished
When I went on the 4th I was the only guy under the age of 40 there, it was a weird experience and 95% of the seats were full.
And thing is shot like that happens all over the world!!! With famous people… and we just turn away
As a trauma therapist I've worked with many women who've survived being trafficked from a young age. This happens in our community and most people have no idea. Thank you for reviewing this and bringing attention to this movie that will help raise awareness to this very real & relevant issue. This review does so much good; thank you.
Therapist The- rapist... now why would you call yourself the rapist?
That's because if you ask a certain set of people (Hollywood, liberal media, etc.), they'll tell you with a straight face that it dosen't happen and you're a conspiracy theorist.
@@IAMinfiniteandfree.you must’ve felt so proud of yourself typing that up huh
@@IAMinfiniteandfree.that joke was old in the 1980’s lol
@@chadking8767 It is no joke.. they rape the minds of the ignorant human beings. Like doctors are "legal"drugs dealers. Pharmacy are drug suppliers... think
It really warms my heart to see such a big name as Jeremy spreading the word about this movie when so many others wouldn't. Major respect to you, Jeremy.
Jeremy runs a real deal movie review channel, no agenda no industry shill.
@@jeahernandez6159 Agreed and it shows! it has always been like that. Thanks Jeremy.
they have created a perception about the film that it is somehow linked to qanon, the mainstream media are so desperate and scummy
its a very good movie, powerful.. big fan of jim caviezel..since he played a homeless guy in pay it forward..and of course passion of the christ
@Barney-ii1no it is linked to qanon, it was literally funded by a Q production company and directs the viewers to qanon sites after the movie. Jeremy even said this movie makes you want to goggle. Yeah that's the whole point of the movie, to send normies down the qanon rabbit home.
Back in the late 80's I worked as a hospital volunteer on a rape crisis hotline. We had so many child cases we developed a comprehensive treatment center for sexually abused children. I met children and police, in the Emergency Room, went to court as an advocate with children as young a 4 yrs old, who had to testify against their abusers in front of them. We worked with Law Enforcement in many ways, and helped with a necessary task force to address Satanic Ritual abuse of children. Etc Etc Etc. I love this movie, everyone who supported it, and Tim is a genuine real life hero. In our experience in the 80's we encouraged all involved in the rescue, prosecution and after care. to pray for help and protection..that is reality too. Thank you for reviewing the movie...that Disney bought from Fox and shelved for 5 yrs (that speaks for itself, doesn't it.) and the original producers fought Disney to win the rights to it back, and then (Angel Studio) agreed to present it in every possible venue. And thank you for addressing the outstanding, awesome music that helps make the movie GREAT. Everything about it, is GREAT.
Thank you for everything you've done to fight the evil in this world
Thank you for sharing, that is terrible.
I used to work in the child abuse centre of my hospital during my early years as a medical officer. The amount of horrendous things I had to manage showed me just how evil humans can become. Have seen even abuse of 10 month babies. All children must be protected at all times for any form of abuse...always
Man, this makes me hate Disney even more. FUCK that company.
Man that would be a HARD job!!!. Kudos to you, the police and the people that help. You guys are real heroes to.
Netflix passed on this movie; said it didn’t fit their style, but they accepted Cuties (SMDH). Thank you for reviewing this movie.
It seems netflix is more for normalizing child exploitation, rather than fighting against it.
Disney of course didn’t want it either. Wonder why 🙄
Anyone still subscribing to Netflix or Disney needs to wake up and realize that these giant corporations hate you and will do whatever it takes to turn your kids into a perverted nympho.
Tells you all you need to know
@@joker18524 im sorry but how in the hell would this fit into any Disney vein of any kind?
Jeremy, you have never sold your soul. Thank you for being the ONLY BIG reviewer who did a review.
Looking at Stuckmann a little different now (he doesn’t want to review this but will review everything else hitting theaters), probably due to the “relationships” he’s made making his feature.
The point is, thank you for being the man’s man.
And for still being critical. Stuckmann doesn't like to be overly critical anymore now that he's a film producer.
In Brazil, children disappear everyday and nobody cares. This movie is very important to bring awareness to the world.
Amen. I pray for Brazil everyday. Such a beautiful country with wonderful people that shouldn't be exposed to such corruption and horror. Things need to improve in that country and will improve as good people rally together to end such evil practices.
kids disappear every day in America as well .. no one cares here either
In all latín america, the cartels are traf Kids 2 en México
the statistics they show are lies. you do realize how many 6-20000 a year are. lol that means everyone will know a child who went missing. its all exaggerated to bring in the chip. you are all falling for it hook, line and sinker.
@@vfxeriksen8694 no you dont you liar.
Finally, a main stream film critic that's giving this movie the attention it deserves! Hat's off to you Jeremy Jahns! 🙌 💯
Yes 👏
Jeremy has integrity. Remember that he was the only one who dared to review Chapelle's 0% RT rated special. No other big RUclipsr had any guts.
@@dereksbooks in our modern (or post-modern) world that elevates weak & pathetic "men" like Mulvaney it's the "balls" that most RUclipsrs and/or media personalities are lacking.
I say this respectfully, is this guy considered a mainstream film critic?? I like and watch him but I never saw him as that one of them
Jim Caviezel's net worth is $15million and rising. Just sayin'
As someone raised in church, and as the child of pastors, I've been very critical of the "Christian movie" tropes and the pandering many of those films do to the middle-aged church mom crowd. This film and other projects done by Angel Studios are legitimately good while being "Christian". Those don't have to be mutually exclusive
Angel didn’t make this. Fox did. It was indeed Christian though, but Angel just bought the rights from Disney. Which is still mad props: without them, we wouldn’t see it, just not because they made it.
@disguisedcentennial835 from what I understand, Angel studios made it under Fox. When Fox was bought by Disney, Disney didn't release it. So Angel had to buy back the rights and find a new distributor
@@disguisedcentennial835 I can see why Disney put this on the shelf for five years...🤔
Church is where kids go to get trafficked
@@deadnorth8648is it because it's legitimately a shit film, meant to pull on rube's heartstrings, and to make them sad, angry, and scared?
Much respect Jeremy for reviewing this film. You’re a man of class, and professionalism for doing your job of seeing and reviewing all relevant movies that are at the box office without bias. 👏👏 👏
Whatever man....🙄 i dare anyone to give this movie a "negative review"
@@fattyjaybird7505the main stream media is. And a lot of major RUclipsrs are ignoring this movie. Big Hollywood hates this movie and is trying to kill it. It's embarrassing them by outpacing The Flash, Indy5, MI7. So rolling your eyes is ignorant
@@JynessaSwannyou want the reason to be “because they’re scared of the truth” when it’s because the lead and the person he portrays is a conspiracy lunatic and this movie is QAnon adjacent lol
@@fattyjaybird7505 If the movie was an actual bad movie in terms of directing, acting, script ect... then it'd be fair to call it a mediocre movie. From those that has seen it it's a good movie.
@@Sephiroth766you do realize people have different tastes in directing, acting, and writing right? Opinions are made to convey what people feel about something and clearly people who praise this movie are willing to label others as groomers for not praising it.
I hate that this movie is considered controversial. People on the right and left are both so touchy these days but we should agree that this movie sends an important message. Props to Jeremy for reviewing it
Wow. Thanks for all the likes guys!
*left
I couldn't agree more🎯🎯!!. People on both sides are so obsessed with who's right in every kind of debate that very few even care about what's right. The division is crazy! The right hate both sides and the left hate both sides. Wish we could be regular people, unite and focus on the importance of what's going on in the world rather than attacking each other😔
Let's be honest, and only one side seems to somehow have a problem with a movie about stopping child sex trafficking.
@@Jackieghosts get off the Hunter cocaine. “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children”. TB actually sat down to discuss this with DT
I think the only people who are apposed to this movie are the ones with child sexualization agendas. It exposes them.
This movie is a must see. Very powerful. I saw it on the 3rd and it is still with me. The audience was quiet through it all, grabbing Kleenex as the exited. Makes you grateful for those who have been rescued, sad for those children still being trafficked. God has blessed Tim Ballard, giving him the strength to do this job.
Absolutely. Praised be Jesus.
I think everyone agrees it's a heavy movie
Did y'all see machine gun preacher? Same context, true story. Same weight. Heavy.
@@JanisJople3997 go be a troll elsewhere
@@Flylikeamuy cruda , pero es ja verdad, desde hace décadas se oye de esta realidad, que pocos quieren aceptar que existe, ojalá se pueda hacer más por estos inocentes. “ hay de aquel que haga escandalizar a uno de mis pequeños, más le valdría no haber nacido”.
as a contributor financially to a San Diego, CA, based home for young people that were subjected to human trafficking at young ages, I am so glad this movie is doing well at the box office
Jesus Bless
What is it called and can someone volunteer?
Don't be - the org this movie is promoting isn't a real child trafficking org. They are an organisation who lets celebrities and amateurs take part in "raids" and are strongly affiliated with QAnon (as is Jim Caviezel). This is a movie made by people who take the real issue of trafficking and warp it to promote their lunatic ideas that children are trafficked because Hillary Clinton and a Joe Biden want to steal their adrenochrome and the only way to stop it is to make Donald Trump emperor of America.
Thank you for supporting that home. And for sharing.
@@ca8944 hello, thanks for your interest, my comment keeps being removed by Ytube, but there is a reply to Daygo in these comments, cheers
Absolutely insane how this movie is being slandered almost everywhere. Politics don't belong in the discussion of human trafficking, so when I first heard about it I was a bit put off, i didn't care about that. I just want to know if it's a good movie, and I'm happy you reviewed it for what it is.
It’s mostly because the lead actor is such an outspoken conspiracy theorist, most people think this movie is gonna be about Q-anon or something. Caviezel is so misguided, how could the movie NOT be misguided too? In other words, HE made it political. We didn’t.
But after seeing this review, I think I’ll give it a shot. I mean, what am I afraid of? The movie isn’t going to magically make me a conspiracy theorist, and it’s certainly worth a watch.
Sorry if this came off as argumentative. I’m just trying to explain why a lot of decent people don’t want to see this movie, that’s all.
@@precoius It’s not just that. Tim Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad (the anti-trafficking organisation the movie is based around) are not great. They have frequently been caught embellishing stories, have claimed to help free a victim who testified that she freed herself, and use practices that can actually further endanger victims. They’ve been known to not give adequate support to victims of trafficking after rescue. In 2014 they filmed a raid in an effort to make a reality TV show out of the operations. It’s a pretty self-righteous organisation that doesn’t use safe methods of rescue.
Trafficking is an incredibly serious issue that this movie does not portray accurately. It does not spread awareness, just misinformation about trafficking and O.U.R.’s practices. I can’t recommend giving money to this movie or the organisation.
Hope this doesn’t come across that I’m annoyed at you personally, it’s just that this movie and organisation anger me.
I have to agree with @ionabab. And add in the fact that child trafficking is one of the biggest qanon focuses… let’s be clear NOBODY is arguing that child trafficking isn’t something worth focusing on, but considering how Qanon only focuses on child trafficking in the context of Hollywood and liberal elites (even to the point of blatantly falsehoods) and just brushes over all other cases of child trafficking, if not just completely dismissing them… especially in there Republican Party (looking at you, Matt Gaetz)… ide say there is substantial evidence to suggest that Qanons real focus is “destroying the libs” far more than any real worry about children or trafficking. I think it’s pretty evident the children are just sort of a convenient and compelling excuse to galvanize the Republican base who 1.does actually care about children/trafficking (to be clear… as we all should) and 2. Are not very political or politically motivated. It brings sort of right leaning, and extreme right groups together to “destroy the libs” but under the guise of “protecting the children”. And considering that’s Qanons m.o if you will, to deceive the masses using in part stories about trafficked children to further a political goal….
I don’t think it’s unreasonable for virtually anyone who’s not inclined to fall for Qanons deception to kinda draw the seemingly in normal circumstances abstract points together. Does that mean that you can never seperate the person from the artist? No ofcourse you can in a lot of cases. But when that artist has consistently used his art to scam people it’s a little difficult to think his next art piece is all above board and is not being done for the purpose of the scam. Make sense?
@@ionabab7274 Seriously? This is like saying we should not watch any movie that shows the US military because they invaded Iraq under false pretence etc. It’s a nonsensical argument because for all of that questionable stuff, they have also done good and saved lives. Also, it’s not like this self-righteous acting can be exclusively identified with this particular organization. Almost every organization, including all levels of government spare no efforts in trying to look good by virtue signalling. So when you say stuff like in your comment, most people will start to wonder if you following some consistent principle or merely just being arbitrary due to an unreasonable hatred.
@@precoius Child trafficking is just a conspiracy theory 💀
This movie wasn’t even in my radar. So glad I saw it. In my opinion, it’s the most impactful movie of the year.
of our lifetime, our children over the entire globe need protection, from school teachers, politicians, pastors, everyone
@@rayvanee277Sadly, even parents. My former best friend turned her 3 year old son into a girl😭. She groomed him good. Saddest part.... In order to maintain her lie she took everything away from him. His friends, family, father. Anyone who didn't agree with her she banned from his life.
@@StompMom5 thats heartbreaking,
Tell all your friends
@@rayvanee277 Definitely 😭.
The fact that people are going out of their way to make sure that no light is shed on this subject is creepy af.
They aren't winning, we are. This movie has made over 40 million $$ in 6 days!!! Mention this movie in every post that you make. I'm absolutely thrilled that it smoked Indiana Jones..LOL
It's not creepy.
It's evidence.
That's creepy.
@@dred8616 How is this evidence again? It's a movie, it's not something that could even be used against someone in the court of law...
@@roningarrison This is the court of public opinion boo
@@roningarrisonnot the movie, the fact that left wing media is labeling this movie a right wing extremist film. That is the evidence of a potential crime
Jim Caviezel has been a family friend for almost 40 years.
He’s been so passionate about getting this movie out, it’s been such a ridiculous shit show.
I’m thrilled for him that it’s finally out, that it’s being appreciated, and of course the story of Tim, & what’s happening to children is being told!!
Thank you for bringing attention to this movie!
Can you ask him whether it will come to the UK please? I’ve called cinemas and we don’t have a distributor.
I'm just a random on the internet, but please thank him for me.
passion of the christ is brilliant.. and jim was great in pay it foward
And a QAnon nutjob. But I'm still glad that attention is being raised for a difficult subject...just the conspiracy theories should be kept at bay.
@@theoriginalemim Done!
Just barely saw this. It was the most awkward silent family walk back to the car. We were speechless with contemplation and the movie basically said everything for us. Incredible movie. It truly moved me.
No, that was the burritos.
You are moved I guess if you start supporting anti trafficking causes, donating and pledging your time.
Otherwise be honest, you just watched a thought provoking movie which you'll forget in a month or so
It's a serious subject matter and doesn't have any of the Liam Neeson kicking butt action so it's a heavy watch. But glad to support the producer who tried so hard to get the film out and Angel studios who Disney tried to crush.
Why was it an awkward walk to the car?
@@Osama_Bin_Ladder We aren't used to walking out of a movie theater dead silent. The movie was so heavy, and it kinda said everything it needed to say, so we didn't feel like we needed to say anything else. So we were silent.
For anyone who doesn’t know, the studio has a website where, if you can’t handle the subject matter, you can donate money to pay for other people to watch it for free.
Yes, they're calling it "pay it forward". Fantastic idea. Those who cannot afford to buy tickets can still get to see the movie.
LOL great, you can pay for it, they wont, so they literally arent contributing, they are crowd funding their propaganda. Its the new "charity" LMFAO
My mother and brother-in-law only decided at the last minute to attend. Both fully expected to walk out. Both thanked me at the end for inviting them. This movie is not graphic and is very intentional about never letting emotions hit peak. Quite frankly, I felt somewhat let down at the end because it wasn't more hard-hitting. It was perfect for mass audience. They led you up to something then moved along.
Thank you, I was thinking about buying a ticket to support the movie even if I didn’t go.
Are you all boomers? Just pirate the freaking movie 🤨
This was a great movie, but it is devastating and haunting. I have now found myself on a mission to help these kids. I saw it 5 days ago and with my hubby and 3 friends, now we are amped to start raising awareness and money to fight and support organizations doing this work. This movie instantly had me doing research on how I could help in my area, which I think is why this movie was made.
If not me, then who? If not now, then when?
Same it has made we want to help and figure out what I can do help. Alot of films/books are written about history way in the past when it isn't a "controversy" to make them, but it is really hard to have them made when it is still happening, not only happening but at such a large scale.
Tim Ballard's organization is called Operation Underground Railroad (OUR), and wasn't even promoted by the movie, but definitely can use our support!
@@sanditabaj6214 May I ask. I heard the money that is earned for this movie is going to help children in these situations. Do you know if that is true?
@@AJP.OT7 I do not believe that is true. I know for a fact that OUR is not receiving any of the proceeds, so that is why I have my doubts.
You are a pro Larper 😂
The fact that Disney shelved this film when it brought 20th Century Fox and the filmmakers had to fight to get the distribution rights back off them says a lot about The Mouse.
It says nothing, they shelved A LOT of things and fired A LOT of people. They still are cancelling things and firing people cause they are losing money. Of course they'd start with shelving and canceling the non-franchise things
And it's hilarious that this little movie is beating Indy 5 at the box office..... ouch that must hurt 😂
Of course the Rat would hide this film.
Think of pall the Disney Cruise Ships that was stopping at Epstein’s Island to do Snorkeling Tours..😏
@@Welsh_Dragon756 It beat Indy 1 day. The next day it took a 78% drop while Indy took a .8% drop. 2nd day was 4 million for Freedom and 11 million for Indy.
It beat Indy on it's release day (it's first day out was Monday), while the next day, no one watched it.
I wonder if anyone else found the girl closing her eyes while they fought a really cool shot and idea that I haven’t seen. It’s a cool idea to give the viewer a perspective of the scared child during a fight like that.
I've seen it before, at least 5 years ago, there's a movie where a little girl puts on her headphones and sings while we see shooting and screaming in the background.
Yes that is a neat shot to give you the girls POV. But a little more action would be nice but I get they don't want to turn this into taken with Liam Neeson kicking butt.
Indeed. It's great that the independent Christian-leaning film industry is stepping up their game in terms of filmmaking. I also liked the two symmetrical shots that bookended the movie.
props to you for giving this movie the attention it deserves
💯
I was just thinking the same thing. Been following Jeremy since his review of the first Avatar film 13 years ago and have always liked him. Very proud that he reviewed this given the left wing backlash and hate this movie is getting.
@@itsem6445You’d think child trafficking wouldn’t be politically divisive, but here we are lol
@@deathbymazda it's really not. Who is arguing against child trafficking? What's divisive is accussing people of it without any evidence whilst being conveniently quiet when it comes to the servants of the lord laying hands on the little ones. You don't hear anything about them from the "protect the children" crowd
@@Maxrepfitgm this. All of this.
This movie is so intense. At one point I told my GF nobody would ever really do this part like that and she said this is a true story! I was floored! It's a must-watch everybody needs to see this movie. The happy ending made it easier on my soul
Sadly I think the climax was a hyperbole tacked on with the intention of paying off the audience. A different ending wouldn't have been gratifying enough. And the audience deserved the catarsis of that ending. Reason why this was a dramatization of true events in lieu of a documentary.
There’s no happy ending really knowing that the fight continues. 2 million children a year get trafficked Tim Ballard is everyday still continuing his mission.
Finally a big movie reviewer who hasnt sold out. Big respect.
Yeah, he didn’t sold out because he reviews one movie? I guess everyone who didn’t talk about this movie sold out?

We've been talking about this movie all week over at Midnight's Edge as well as the history behind this movies production and how the media is trying to black out this release.
Means a lot when a guy like Jeremy does reviews on smaller, obscure movies like this. I think many of us check out movies we didn't know or hear about just because Movieman recommends it to us.
I mean at 14m budget it's not like this is a SUPER small movie
But also, yeah, I love Jeremy's reviews of movies that fit in this 10-20m budget category, there seems to be a couple of movies like this every year

I went into this movie knowing nearly nothing about it and left the theater almost too stunned to speak. A powerful film, definitely deserves a viewing. And don’t listen to the people painting this as a “Christian only” movie, it was made by 20th Century Fox but when Disney bought them it got shelved until Angel studios bought the distribution rights. (I looked up stuff about the movie afterwards, it’s definitely that sort of an experience)

My respect for you just went up 100,000% for covering this movie.
Its qanon filled and backed film with literal cultists who have financed it. The main actor has been spreading lies and crazy conspiracy theories literally akin to a liberal cabal that drinks babies blood as a fountain of youth. The movie is being used to spread these insane recycled tropes. These people are sick in the head. Especially using a real issue like child trafficking to spread qanon beliefs to others. Literal cultists helped finance this movie. The story is also not true. It is literally made up.

@@ajaxslamgoody9736🙏🏻❤️
My family lives in the Philippines, where for a long time, children were not safe from the drug gangs, traffickers, and the organ harvesters. It only changed when they got a new President who literally went after these evil groups of scumbags. So, I would be really interested in seeing this film.
Tim Ballard has been working in your country for years to rescue kids and women from sex slavery. He is seriously a bad A hero!

@@wballer479 duterte's admin only killed the runners, the drug lords were his buddies and were tipped off to escape. these people being impressed with duterte are delusional.
One of my favorite parts of the movie was the quietness of the beginning when things happen. The father loses his children and it isn’t filled with dramatic screams. He’s just broken.
Seriously one of the most heart-wrenching sequences of any movie I’ve ever seen! I truly felt the despair of that poor father. It literally made me sick to my stomach and I almost had to tap out. But what an amazing film!!
That scene alone hit me really hard, and im not even a father. Great acting and great filmmaking. Horrifying to think about when you put yourself in his shoes.
Funny how Chris Stuckmann won't even touch this movie or mention it.

He's an actual real life hero, and you can actually feel it when he walks into the room!

I just can't really get behind the people who made this film. Sounds like the movie itself is... fine, but some of the opinions that the creators and actors have expressed in past interviews just don't work for me and are borderline dangerous imo. Also, a surprising amount of people are acting like watching this film is the only way to be knowledgeable on the subject matter. I don't understand where that attitude comes from and it makes the film even less enticing to me.
What do you mean?
@@mcgheebentle1958 there are several interviews where it becomes clear that the director and lead actor, as well as the man it's based on want to perpetuate Qanon conspiracy theories. Just not the type of people I want to support.
@@AuricNova Wait what? I’ve seen a few interviews and it just seems like they want to drive home the message that child trafficking can happen at every level. There’s no conspiracy there - that’s just fact. Are we really going to be so reactionary that we block our ears to this? How bizarre.
@@mcgheebentle1958 You're either comatose or lying. Cavieziel has done a whole media blitz screaming about "adrenochrome" to promote this trashy flick.
Saw this movie last. As the credits rolled I just sat in stunned silence. I was seething throughout the film that anyone could be so cruel and disgusting to children. I could hear people in my theater breaking down into tears. Whether you’re religious or not, “Gods children are not for sale” is so powerful.
Edit: I also loved Bill Camps character. He brought an appropriate amount of light-heartedness to the movie while also understanding the severity of the situation.
This movie gives us a reminder that we do have a soul and capable of selfless acts. We’re not all cold hearted products of evolution
I was seething too but when the little boy gave Tim the necklace I almost cried.
Those of us who have been trying to call attention to this horrendous fact of reality for 40 years and hearing it dismissed as "false accusations!" "satanic panic!!" "conspiracy theory!!!" can hardly believe that someone has finally put together a treatment powerful enough to get the ostriches to pull their heads out of the sand and pay attention. Thanks and admiration to all involved. To the viewers: now you know what the reality is. Go out and do something about it.
it could simply be "children are not for sale", doesn't it? because, very sadly, there are very many religious nut jobs who think that if someone doesn't pray to 'their' god they are a lesser being and don't deserve the same human rights.
“Gods children are not for sale”
literally thats done in the bible.
This man is an amazing actor. The Count of Monte Cristo is one of my all time favorite films. It’s too bad Hollywood can’t get its head out of its ass and cast this man more. The only reason he got the part was because the real guy wanted Jim to play him. Fantastic movie.
I know he has had trouble finding work in the past because he wouldn't do sex scenes. Hard to find a good man like that in Hollywood
Jim was blacklisted after Passion of the Christ.
Hollywood is infested with paedophiles who do not want the extent of child trafficking exposed
@@lauralarrabee7870He was on person of interest for 5 seasons after Passion of the christ

This, right here, Jeremy, is why you are my go-to movie critic. You get it exactly right and hit all the important points of this movie, its production, and the acting. Tim Ballard is a real-life hero, I have met him and live close by to where he lives so we see his family at the stores regularly. Jim Caviezel has been a hero of mine for a while now and Person of Interest was a great series. Thank you Jeremy for giving this movie the attention it deserves and, as you always do, giving it the treatment it deserves!
What's with all the comments here treating this as the most important movie ever and that it's been kept quiet? It's a movie about child trafficking, pretty sure awareness about that exists. It's just that it's quite hard to tackle if it's all secretly done by shady crim gangs. They can't even bust drug trafficking and that's something the government really really hates
yup
this has been happening for years here in Christian cults and these people do not say a PEEP about this and even resist efforts to stop it.
The story behind the production of this movie is hilarious. Was being held by Disney for ages and they were just sitting on it. Netflix and a few streaming services all pass on the film, which is already made by the way. Then some small company picks it up, releases it, and it outperforms Disney's new Indy film. Love it
That's not entirely correct. Angel Studios bought it BACK from Disney. They had sold it to Fox, then Disney bought Fox and wouldn't release the film. Insert conspiracy theory here, lol. I think it was because Caviezel was sort of blacklisted after The Passion. Disney being willing to sell it back shows that they didn't really care about the film much one way or another.
Poetic justice, my man.
An Indy film beats an Indy film. Ironic.
@@ams914which is weird, he had a successful TV show for that ran for many seasons called Person of Interest, completely secular and about artificial intelligence and vigilantes.

"The film was completed in 2018 and a distribution deal was made with 20th Century Fox. However, that studio was purchased by the Walt Disney Company, which shelved the film. The filmmakers reportedly spent years trying to get the distribution rights back from Disney and take it to theaters"
Because they didn't spend any money marketing it?

When the media praises Cuties but criticizes Sound of Freedom, that should tell you everything.
Yeah. One was a film for pedophiles and one was a film to expose pedophiles.

Kind of sad how angry you people get because you selectively choose when to pay attention to what certain media outlets say.
I think you're confusing critique of media with the approval of its subject matter. They are two distinctly different ideas.
@@getinthespace7715 I'd say cuties was for pedos and exposed them. You already know that the folks that publicly liked that movie were exposed for it.

This film is not graphic - it’s deep subject matter & it’s respectful. So powerful & important to show what impact good men can have in such an evil industry.
Tim Ballard is a liar and a con artist.

I'm so freaking glad that you reviewed this movie. This is a movie that needs all the attention and publicity that it can get from as many reviewers as possible. Thank you for doing it. This is not a right or left political thing, as you said, this is about saving children in a world where child trafficking (and far more nefarious things as a part of that) is a BILLION dollar industry. It's sickening. So yes, give this as much exposure as humanly possible. Bravo Jeremy.
Yeah man, I especially loved the part when the main character goes after the thousands of priests raping children worldwide.
Actually, it is very much a "left" issue, as you're talking about powerless people being commodified for the purpose of pleasing people with power. It's something that doesn't have to exist but does due to how power works in our current world. As someone who is generally on the left, I despise human trafficking but realize that the only way it'll ever be dealt with is by dealing with both how powerful people think it's expected to exist in their circles and the incentive behind it.
@@peachypietro9980 No it's not, everyone should be against the abuse of children or using children in any exploitative capacity (that includes to push political agendas).

Trafficked is a very real and serious issue that needs more attention, I don't think anyone would argue that. But this movie is just a sensationalized exploitation of it. It IS completely okay to say this topic needs more attention, and also say fuck Tim Ballard and Jim Caviezel.
I’ve been following you for years Jeremy, never have a dared to recommend you to review any movies but I am so GLAD you chose to review this one. It deserves all the attention it can get. I hope your review will push others to get out of their comfort zone and get a glimpse of what the most vulnerable go through day by day.

Thank you Jeremy for not being like other creators who won't review this.
Why would they review a movie that didn’t tackle the issue correctly, left out important information on how children are not even the majority of human trafficking cases and the fact that human trafficking happen more in the US than any other country on the planet, tried to say the bad guy in the movie was convicted for trafficking when in reality he was convicted for child porn, had no actual victims or experts who know how human trafficking works to help them out on the movie to get shit right, propped up and absolute dick bag of a human being who was literally found out to be a child abuser and was kicked out of OUR, and last but not least was literally made for Conservative Christian propaganda that profits off of actual victims. You sir are just a simpleton who is blinded by this movie because it pulled on your emotions. If you call me a groomer for daring to speak my mind about this dogshit movie then you need to seek therapy for your issues. Seems to me your compliance against actual victims speaks more volumes than anyone here.

God have mercy on people who refuse to care about these kids.
Yeah, the child separation border policy was a disaster. Thousands of kids still not found.
Sen. Ted Cruize T.X. said at a recent congressional hearing that there are 126,000 children who have crossed the USA border ( that's two stadiums full of kids ) & that our gov't has no idea where they are. He told Meyorkas by leaving the border open, you & the Biden administration are participants in child trafficing. 🦗🦗🦗 crickets.

Every time I see Caviezel in a film I'm always shocked that he’s not a bigger star than he is, he’s so captivating. Man when Jim Caviezel gets to act he can act. This man deserves a comeback!
It's because he's Christian.
He' black listed for being openly Christian
Yeah... he's talented but really the whole entertainment industry has nothing to do with talent and everything to do with politics. Even if youre talented, You'll never see the light of day if you dont play the game and do what the higher ups tell you to do. Ever since he did Passion of the Christ, he basically got blacklisted. And Mel gibson told him that would happen before it even happened
He's got that reserved stoic acting style of the old guard. In a perfect world he would've played Batman.
@@Law2120Chris Pratt is openly Christian and he's a blockbuster star.
I thought this film was very passionate to tell the story of child trafficking, how they could get deceived into it (modeling agency) and how difficult the stings can be to rescue them. If you do delve into the story further you will find Tim Ballards' wife giving him support and strongly encouraging him to do this work. Also the fact that they provide aftercare centers or foster care homes, counseling, medical treatment for each child is very impressive and I am grateful for that.
Many years ago I watched a The 700 Club episode. A recently new Christian, who was a tattoo artist wanting to witness to people was praying how can God use him. The FBI contacted him and asked if he would be willing to cover the bar codes sex trafficers use to "sell" their products. He jumped at the chance so one Thursday a month his shop closed and his team did beautiful coverup tattoos so these kids would not be reminded of their past. He also painted a tree in his shop and every kid that they did this too had the opportunity to leave their handprint on this tree. I hope he is still doing this. He was out of Chicago but I don’t remember the name of the shop or if the show even mentioned it.
Wow 😯 that’s so wonderful 😢
I would sincerely hope he can stop doing it.
@@ronryan7398Same here. What he’s doing is amazing, but it would be better that no child has to go through such horrors in their life in the first place.

Who the fuck is saying they are? lol
The problem with this movie is that conservatives are promoting it as a middle finger to liberals.
A liberal can appreciate this film for being competently made but it becomes a detriment to the film when it is politicized in this manner, not in the subject matter that its talking about but rather as an FU to liberals, who, frankly would not really dislike this film otherwise, and even agree with the film,
Yet conservatives are using it as some bizarre vengeance for Trump being indicted for crimes, which he has basically confessed to.
So yeah too bad for this film.
The funny part is that they are claiming it to be a blockbuster success, however there is a campaign going on asking people " buy an extra ticket "for someone who would not otherwise be able to see the film"," so that means they are basically paying people to go watch this movie.
When people start politicising a movie that is morally right when it comes to the message , then there is something seriously wrong with that person.
The fact that its mostly the mainstream media and those on the left calling it right wing and qanon conspiracy ect ect... is very telling. Shouldnt everyone universally agree that human trafficking is bad?

FALSE.

A probable cause statement against Marta, 51, alleges he helped somebody who had unlawfully taken her children and interfered with the return of the two children to their lawful parent “by refusing to allow police access to the residence and impeding the kidnapping investigation.”

You should read into what actually occurred during this operation. There's a reason why experts in human trafficking are speaking out against it. Did you know that no aftercare was provided to these rescued children? They were released less than a week after being taken into custody. No safety nets to prevent them from being trafficked again. Coupled with the lead actor being a q anon conspiracy theorist. Yes it's difficult to see this movie as a positive when it leaves so much out.

Be aware when you are around children in public. Watch for things that just don't look right. If you see something act! Right then! It's easier to apologize to someone for being cautious than it is to find out that the child you had a chance to save was indeed taken. Simple questions to a child like "are you ok", "Is this your mom/dad?" "Do you know this person?"
I have a brother in law that’s seen the woman king and said it was an amazing film but when I invited him to come and see sound of freedom his first reaction was “isn’t it a religious, right wing movie?”
I’m going to be honest. That surprised me. Crazy how the media really does a number on the human mind.
Funny, if you see it, it isn't even a right-wing movie. It's just a movie about putting a stop to trafficking. Surprisingly little politics in it whatsoever except maybe showing how inefficient the government is.
Too much soy 🤣
That's libs for ya.
Since my wife and kids started tik tok I barely recognize them
@@browncoat516 that’s scary man
Thankyou for reviewing this. Not all critics would. Respect.
This movie seriously needed to be done on the big screen and brought to the attention of the whole world. "All that is necessary for evil to prosper is for good men to do NOTHING"--Edmond Burke, 1775, American War for Independence.
For at least 20 minutes straight, the only thought screaming through my blood was “burn it down! Burn it down! Burn it all down!“ just righteous fury the whole time and tears for these strong children going through so much.
I hope this movie has the impact it’s hoping for that I’ve seen in interviews.
Rescuing children should NEVER be a partisan issue
You said it! Don’t let politics get in the way.
It is a partisan issue if one side fosters doing things to kids. So many people are convinced this is a battle against evil. Why was this movie buried for 5 years? Why are the big Hollywood reviewers saying such things as this a conspiracy theory movie or right wing extremist movie or just not giving it a second of air time?
After watching this movie I came home, looked my kids in the eyes and told them how much I love them. I think we take many things for granted. The horror that these parents must feel. When the father came back to find his children missing my heart fell into my stomach. I just can’t imagine! No doubt it’s an excellent movie but the reality of it story if horrific. I also looked into the missing unaccompanied minor’s that have gone missing at the border and as of April of this years it’s 83,000 children “lost” and probably much more since then. This must end!
You have every right to watch this movie because it is your right and the subject on trafficking is important. HOWEVER I will NOT be watching the movie 'Sound Of Freedom' because of the lead actor being in Q-ANON. As this has caused our country and is a worldwide problem with their psychological warfare (spiritually as well) and unwanted agenda.
I do understand that Jim Caviezel himself may be a victim to Qanon. And that while I've heard that this has been addressed as Qanon, that this is still a huge suspect. Our country has been gaslighted by Qanon. This has somehow taken hold people from all across the political parties and from non-religious, scientific, religious and spiritual people alike.
Yet thankfully more and more people are recognizing the inaccuracy or the half truths to these conspiracy theories that stem from around 2017 and especially around the 'election of 2020'.
Remember that Aston Kutscher has addressed this topic on Congress floor for over a decade. There has been news stories and movies on trafficking. While I will not be supporting this movie because of the lead actor, that it is a good topic to be addressed on.
Got to appreciate the fact that Jeremy is reviewing a small movie, while almost everyone is reviewing the new Mission: Impossible film!
Who's Sean?
@@thebendu33 Sean Chandler (a fellow RUclips film reviewer like Jeremy)
Oh this movie is not small. It's the most important movie at the moment.
@@mr.2cents.846 Small on budget. Huge on heart.
Jim Caviezel, that was by far the best explanation of an actor I've heard in a while, spot on.
Props to Jeremy for reviewing this movie. It needs more attention for sure.
Chris stuckman won’t review it
Thank you JJ for reviewing this film when we don’t hear much about it from others!
Utmost respect for you 👊
I'm a retired law enforcement officer and worked on a human trafficking task force and what I have witnessed has stained my soul.
You have a soul though. It's real.
Thank you for all you did to help rescue children! Please don't let their evil destroy you or your faith! We will always need people like you, and I am praying for you right now! "May God Bless You!" 🙏♥️🙏🏾❤️
Thank you for your service. The sins of others can never stain your soul; only you can do that. And no matter how stained it may be, God's grace can wash it away.
Have you seen the movie? I was just wondering how it would compare to your experiences. That's heavy though, I hope your mind can find rest and peace.
for what you had to endure Thank you for doing it for the kids even if it was a small task you still a hero
