Holy Mother of God. I had no problem shedding tears around strangers. I went alone as my wife didn't think she could do it. This was my first movie in theaters this year. WHAT A MOVIE!! Sitting beside a stranger crying together. no shame. Just real. Go and see this movie and feed your humanity. Thanks for reviewing. New subscriber here.
I balled like a baby too.
First for me in over 3 year .
Same.
My first movie in five years!! I was waiting for it for four years, was worth the wait :)
Excellent comment. I felt the same. I could hardly speak afterwards I was so emotionally burdened. Yet, we saw no graphic Hollywood junk. Done in excellent taste. So thankful they spared us such cruelty. Going to support them until Hollywood breaks since they have those who participate.
I find it interesting that Disney had the rights to distribute it for the last five years but refused to do so. Eventually they agreed to sell it to Angel Studios which now has released it in theatres.... Ironically it has already recouped its original budget and has made more money in ticket sales yesterday than Disney's Indiana Jones and the dial of Destiny movie... Karma is real!
When you consider Disney had boat trips to Epstein Island.. it's of little wonder
And it is playing in half as many theaters as the Disney movie.
Maybe they purchased Fox just to shut this movie down.
karma is an evil concept. It's why beggars on the streets in India are not helped. It's their karma.
find it interesting??
what about change that to obvious?
that tells you actually everything, just that.
So much respect for Sean reviewing this. Hollywood has completely ignored it.
Hollywood ignores it because they are the pedophiles. Everyone needs to see this movie!!
Admission of guilt on their part, obviously
Truth never be hidden
@@simongravel7407 💯
Hollyweird is full of paedophiles. Connection?
I appreciate how it exposes the EVILS of luring children into modeling and acting is a PREDATOR. I got into acting in college and developed concerns. This industry needs to be overhauled.
What do you mean by the "Elvis"?
@@WalkerOneElvis is alive. Thank you. Thank you very much.
@@WalkerOne I think you meant Evils. Well, as the movie depicts, both modeling and orphanages are used SOMETIMES as a front to child grooming, paedophilia, trafficking etc.
Ppl forget when they watch a film with child actors and there are parenting scenes etc those are initially stranger to the kid that then get to hug and kiss and touch them all in the name of acting. Just seems so odd that parents let their kid into the industry
Got to appreciate the fact that Sean is reviewing a small movie, while almost everyone is reviewing the new Mission: Impossible film!
Here’s hoping at a very slight, billion to one, almost impossible chance he reviews The First Slam Dunk🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Small no more, it just beat out Indiana Jones for the 4th of July boxoffice - and on far less screens!
True
Iv commented on other channels . Even one of the reviewers asked me what I was talking about , since he apparently
Hadn’t heard of it .
I explained the movie and my comment was deleted , I re-commented 5 times .
None of my comments stayed on. This website is actively suppressing it . I didn’t even say anything other than vague rated G things to describe the film.
Small? It beat Indiana Jones
I really appreciate you doing a review on this film. I saw it last night, I haven't cried seeing a film like that in a really long time. I truly hope many people see this. This evil needs to end. Children are not for sale
Sound of Freedom isn't just a movie .. its a wake up call for all of us. Slavery is alive and flourishing among us ... in a far more expansive and evil way than it's ever been before. We have work to do.
It’s a brutal gut punch of a movie that frankly everyone should see.
It’s from a small Christian film company, but it doesn’t use that as an excuse to not be a well made film. It’s not perfect, but it does what it sets out to do which is to tell a strong story that connects the audience to the cause.
@dandwyer going to this movie and giving your m0ney to the Cathy holocs does exactly what to save children
its a miracle the movie even got made Hollywood was against them big pharma was against them frig Disny purchased it to just shelf it it took 5 years to release this film but god wanted this movie released because i'm sure he does not want his children sold either
Disney shelves a movie against child trafficking shocking
They fear they might upset the LGBT+ community...I wonder why? 🤔
PAEDO PARK DISNEY WORLD AND HOLLYWEIRD DON'T WANT TO BE EXPOSED!😑😑😑😑🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Not surprised.
Is it really. These days.
That’s coz they’re involved in the trade
Not surprised Disney wanted this film canned. Thanks for talking about it
It’s quite good
Shows who they really are...
Disney 👿
@fredtheflash4805go whine to someone who cares
If they truly wanted it canned they would have never sold their rights. Not surprised people are using that to add hype to the film and promote people to go see it. "Ooooh, evil Disney doesn't want you to see this! Go watch it to stick it to the Mouse."
Hopefully the walls are starting to close in on the people who actually do this... and the fact that alot of Hollywood is trying to supress this movie, that is speaking volumes
Love the name😅😅 you hear about that former Clinton aide in Arkansas that hung himself with an extension cord and shot himself in the chest with a shotgun and the gun was never found??😂😂 true story, Google that shit
Ya that is wild. Definitely speaks volumes for sure!

not until the pieces are in place and the time is right. This is the FIRST step towards disclosure. They can't bring it down until people are ready.
Especially with all the sexual abuse victims in the Baptist church
Such a great film! I can only hope for its success in ultimately growing awareness so this child slavery is ended. Thanks for reviewing it.
The fact that Disney shelved this movie speaks volumes!
Well said... your statement implies much. The Mouse has converted to paedophilia.
It's weird that a studio that entertains children won't support a movie that protects them
Makes you wonder
Actually is not exactly the way the guy in the video said. Disney had the movie because it was originally from fox and they bought fox, then the producer went to Argentina to present the movie to Disney they loved it but the big heads said it wasn't a movie for Disney, then 2 argentinian guys working at Disney helped him get the movie back then he spent time trying to find a new company this is where netflix amazon didn't want it, then he got a call from angel studios, they signed the contract 5 days later. So, not all people at Disney suck. This was all said by the producer in a youtube interview in spanish
@@lupelostra I would like to see the video! Do you remember what channel it was?
This movie deserves to win a billion dollar on the box office. We need movies that touches our hearts and is grounded in our reality. We have enough fiction movies already, as if the only purpose for entertainment is to get so lost in fiction so this horrible real situations keep happening.
And any profits goes towards supporting the survivors of all ages of sex trafficking and exploitation. I can see that happening. That's Tim's Operation Underground Railroad, OUR's mission. God's blessing to them.
Just because a movie it’s about a heavy subject that doesn’t make it a masterpiece, it takes more to make a good movie than talk about a subject like that
I saw it on the 4th. It's so powerful. A must-see! I never go to movies. I hate Hollywood, but this movie, I will see again. One thing I disagree with Sean, I didn't feel the length and I didn't think that it dragged. I typically can't sit still in movies. But I was on the edge of my seat.
The main protagonist of this story, Tim Ballard, is a member of my faith, and I’m proud of him for rescuing these children!
Same
Christianity is the truth and Jesus loves you! Mormonism is not the truth though.
I love Tim... HE-RO!! But I am convinced Joseph Smith was a false prophet. I love Jim Caviezel but having studied the earliest Christian writings depicting early Christianity, I see Catholicism is an evolution of the historic faith, which was handed down by the apostles. Love these guys though.
@@kalebdunawaythis!
What is your "faith" of you don't mind me asking?
Thank you Sean for reviewing this film and for giving your honest opinion about it.
Sounds to me like a movie that doesn’t require or can’t be scored or rated. Rather it shouldn’t be. It’s just an experience, and you should see it just to see how much it affects you emotionally. Almost like Skinamarink earlier this year, maybe even Schindler’s List like someone else said. Like Schindler’s List, everyone should see it to know. Know the true harsh realities of the world that must be exposed and fought against.
Edit: Called it. No score.
Well for me it was perfect. A 10/10 for it's real life story and acting. The movie really pulled my heart strings as it did everyone in the theater, and is the saddest movie I have ever seen since Passion of the CHRIST and Hachi: A Dog's Tale. Sean does have a point when it comes to the pacing of the movie but it is to portray the real life story as much as possible.
The sad part is that so many people will watch this film and then go home and watch pornography, when 1/3rd of porn on the internet is from human trafficking. Our society is so deeply screwed up.
We've all been part of it to one degree or another. God have mercy
@@tmoon9297 I agree. But also, pornography views are directly funding this trafficking. If someone is aware of the connection between porn and human trafficking, yet still chooses to watch porn, that is pure evil.
Huh, who owns all the porn sites me wonders.....
It's only the tip of the iceberg!
Ok…yep, ya have a point…BUT…remember: SO MANY PEOPLE will have their eyes OPENED to this thorough CRISIS!! 🙏💕🇺🇸❣️🇺🇸
As a filmaker myself I cannot say enough about the expertise of the Story, The Directing, the Actors, the Lighting, the Locations, the background extras, Editing, the Music. Lightening In a Bottle. A very powerful massage. Hopefully the 100 Monkeys Syndrome aligns itself with this. God is back. Let's toss the debauchery of the rainbow.
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Amen!
God is back?
So good that ur highlighting this movie Sean more ppl need to wake up to what actually goes on in the world
Amen
Most of us have been aware for years, and don't need a film to tell us. But, then again, most of us have been aware of the plight of immigrants to this country, and the reason people seeking a better life risk it all to come to our borders and our shores. Hopefully people understand that.
@@neuropete1 🤡
Thank you for not ignoring this film 🙏
Quite the heavy movie to see on the 4th of July in my experience, but holy moly. This movie is without a doubt one of the more intense and effective thrillers I've seen. I worry that Angel Studios' name behind it will put a flavor of bad Christian feel-good movies in peoples mouth as it did mine before seeing the film because that is not what it is at all. Very necessary and crazy modern day Schindler's List, essentially, though not as graphic and not on the same level artistically.
Without Angel studios the movie would not have gotten released.
Heavy….but absolutely necessary! You could have heard a pin drop in theater. It seems as soon as the film started no touched their food.
Morality and righteousness does not require an overseeing deity. People have an inherent sense of what is right and wrong and how others should be treated because they can turn that lens and reflect on how they themselves would like to be treated.
So hopefully it doesn't lay on the Skydaddy in flipflops stuff on too thick xD
@@scroopynooperz9051how do you explain this to a group of humanity that believe they are superior to your humanity? We could use numerous examples in history that are counter to your point.
Many societies felt they had a right to kill other societies simply because they weren't the same.
The movie was done by them because of the base line "God's Children are NOT for Sale." The movie was done because Tim Ballard and his wife a religious based. I believe Ballard is Mormon (not sure). But I DO know his wife is Catholic. In retrospect, they are doing (rightfully) God's work.
Kinda funny that Disney passed on it and it ended up making more than Indiana Jones for a day
Just deserts for the Woke Disnopoly child grooming company.
It's really not funny but sad what's going on in the mouse house!
Disney is a member of the World Economic Forum - the ones that think you will be happy owning nothing.
Thank you for posting about this movie I wish more movie reviewers weren’t seemingly avoiding this even tho it’s so clearly needs to be covered.
Just the movie again today! Worth the price of admission! Very powerful message!
I wish I could do more to stop this horror! 😭😭😭
You can donate to Operation Underground Railroad
You know Hollywood is shitting its pants when the pedophile hunting movie is getting reviewed by the big channels. Jeremyjahns just uploaded a review for this a few minutes ago. That one shocked me
I do agree about the length of the film, but done intetionally I think to make a point; rescuing these poor children takes a long time to find them, then plan a sting without the cartel finding out about it. If there was a big crescendo, I don't think it could show the horror these children go through. It is a long process for the children and those rescuing them to endure, which could take a very long time. There's no great cescendo for them, only endless horror and long uneventful time ticking by, save their being sold for sex and being scared. Are they waiting to be saved? Have they lost hope? We have time throughout those 2 hours to reflect on this reality. Im sure most of the children have lost hope. So, in defense of the long show time, I think this is the purpose; to get people's attention. That this is a real happening now, on a grand scale. Not a made up story for entertainment. It is something horrifying going on right now. As we are safe asleep in our comfortable beds at night, protected from the horrors these kidnapped children are going through while we sleep peacfully. That's how I feel. We must be awakened to do something to help these children, even just praying for them. If we feel called to do more, remember the the line ...'when God calls you to do something, you do not hesitate'. We can all help in some small way or even help rescue them. Whatever God calls each of us to do. "God's children are not for sale" Love to you, my brothers and sisters.
Just a few years ago, alot of us were called conspiracy theorists because we were speaking out against child trafficking.
Idk who ever said child trafficking was a conspiracy just the extremist that push the idea of andrenochrome.
It's sad that people resort to literal name-calling when someone points out an actual issue. That's like calling someone a smooth brain for pointing out the building everyone is standing in is on fire. It doesn't matter what their personal views are, it matters that the building is on fire.
Seeing this movie Saturday.
It is sold out for every show in town
I’m seeing that in my town as well. So glad that word is getting out.
@@jbstaszesky Same here. All sold out till the weekend. Happy the word is out for this
Hollywood hates when child abuse is being exposed. This movie won’t get much credit even if it deserves it
It is tragic that this movie was suppressed in its release
Everything happens for a reason, it came when it needed to.
By The Walt Disney company of all folks.
Watched the movie yesterday and I like the reality aspect over the minimal theatrics. The subject matter didn't need to be intensified with a soundtrack like Law and Order SUV every ten minutes. The real-life emotional devastation of loss of family into human trafficking network didn't need to be over dramatized for the benefit of the viewers and critics for the sake of sensationalism terror. Hollywood has conditioned their consumers over the decades with sex and violence involving blood lust in the mix like reverb into music as a space enhancement. This movie for obvious reasons doesn't want to come off as a Tarantino smut and gut thrill a minute. It takes on the dirty reality of the wicked things condoned and supported in a politically manufactured economic industry trying to grow on a scale the way weed, drugs, and gambling has over the last 100 years. You trying to find another Christian willing to make this type of movie any better and work inside the constraints of taste and class, just maybe there might be some hope for mankind. 92% rotten and 100% audience is Outstanding in my book.
Thank you for reviewing this film. I hope this inspires some of the other big you tube reviewers to do the same.
Jim Caviezel's range is really impressive, especially when playing bad guys who think that they're the goods guys ('Deja Vu,' 'High Crimes') but even when he's playing less complex, larger than life pantomine-type villains ('Escape Plan'), he's just so much fun to watch.
An absolutely must see. On a film making level its a great movie, and as far as the story/subject matter its hands down one of the most important messages out there. If you havent watched it yet please go see it
Can't believe Disney decided this movie wasn't important enough to put on the big screen...
That’s not the reason it was canned…
Thank you for shining a light on "Sound of Freedom".
Rolling Stone should be ashamed for calling this movie a "conspiracy". Why defend the predators in this world?
Twitter has been running with that narrative too. Very weird.
Me thinks they doth protest too much🧐🤔
@@r.marie08thank goodness I am on the right side of history and don’t believe any stupid conspiracy theories about quanon like this movie peddles
I agree it relies on the fact that it’s true to sell the tension . It could have showed a bit more of the effects of the situation to certain characters to drive the emotion more , like the father living alone and seeing other kids with their family . Maybe showing how common or often the issue was happening in all areas (to show scope). I feel sudiences are desensitized in general so it could have driven trauma more, the hopeless feeling more .
The real person who did this mission tells some devastating details in his interviews and those interviews are more weighty than the film . They might have underestimated what an audience can handle . That being said I think they are making more films on this guy so maybe they will open up the harsh reality of it even more
yeah I heard they are making another film with Jim Caviezel and also several documentaries.
If they had done this 2.5 hour film, it could've been lost in details. Keep it to the two children with strong implications and leave details to a possible sequel.
Thank you for reviewing this movie. These kids need help and I am grateful there are people willing to help them. I’m grateful for the content for public awareness. It’s about the kids and no other fight!
Thanks for seeing and reviewing this movie Sean. Keep up the great work
So glad you reviewed this!
Thank you for being the first big movie youtuber to review this film. Subscribed! 👍
I just wanted to thank you for speaking for this film, not many people are trying to get this out and it needs to be out there.
I don't care about any hiccups, The subject is too important!
We all need to show our support, unless you're on the other side.
Thanks for reviewing this movie. Well done. A lot of reviewers are shying away from this movie.
3 days later...I'm still slightly shook tellin anyone within earshot to go see it
The cinematography impressed me, as well as the acting, especially the children! Powerful movie.
That is why anyone promoting MAPs needs to be under the jail...or worse
I saw it yesterday. Everyone should see it.
“God’s children are not for sale.” I’m so glad this movie was so successful.
Tim Ballard is a real life superhero
Unfortunately it only seems to have a limited release in the states. No worldwide distribution yet but definitely gonna check this out hopefully if it does come over or when it hits digital
Yeah. I'm dying to watch this film in theater in my country but the nearest cinema to me has not made any advertising related to it yet. I hope eventually they do show it here.
I think having the movie in such a way where it doesnt necessarily build tension or consquense was a good move. I think "based on a true story" films sometimes are ruined when the director wants to add dramatic moments or a huge climax that doesn't feel realistic. The music doesnt persuade you how to react to a scene. It is very raw. I think the movie did a very good job of portraying each scene in the way it happened in real life.
Like it didn't try to act like the protagonists won after he saved those kids. No fancy music or cinematics like when indiana jones freed the slaves. The movie ends on the basis that the problem is still as big as ever. The big climax happens when we speak about this movie to get our government leaders to do something about these child traffickers.
Thank you for bringing attention to this movie! Every adult in America should see this.
Pleasantly surprised that you reviewed this one! Very fair review! (Haven’t seen the film yet but what you said is what I imagined it would be) also I didn’t know about the distribution rights that was interesting (would recommend watching some other “Angel” projects btw;)
Saw this movie last night, and like a few other reviews, it flew by. Glad you went to see it.
SOUND OF FREEDOM fans and supporters must always remember AN OPEN SECRET.
This needs to be shared with the world to bring light to this dark.🙏🍀
Thank you for giving this movie attention because Hollywood isn't
This movie is such an emotional roller coster. Sadness, joy, triumph, hatred, horror. Such a good film.
By far most powerful and important movie I’ve seen in a long time!
Very important movie that everyone should see!
This film is a MUST SEE!!! Go see it and SPREAD THE WORD about it❤!!!
Thank you for this review. Anyone knows when it is coming to Europe? If it is coming ...
As another commenter @tamarab eloquently shared, may this film shine loving light with exponential positive outcomes. May Sound of Freedom reverberate and its impact change our hearts to take real action to end slavery and exploitation. As empaths, ask to observe SOF's message of hope and not absorb dark energy.
The great part about the movie is that the worst parts are implied but never shown. The director understood, like Hitchcock, suspense is the key to a great movie.
You reviewed this film. Respect.
Seams kind of like Schindler's list. Not an exciting movie to see, but just powerful and touching on some very hard subjects
Thank you. U r the 2nd person that I follow that reviewed this film. I saw this Monday night. I wish more ppl would see and review Sound of freedom.
Can't wait to watch the movie
Very important film, had be crying bro.
How does no one bring up The Count of Monte Cristo when talking about Jim?
I think a lot of the controversy of this movie is the messager as opposed to the message
yep
I love how you explained this to everyone
Thank you for reviewing this film.
Trade with Kevin Kline is also important. He goes to Mexico to find his daughter and stumbles on an online site selling kids to pedaphiles
sounds like they told and showed the truth rather than embellish it.
Thank you so, so much for this review, this subject is incredibly important.
An ongoing tragedy doesn’t have a happy or finalized ending. Just a resolved chapter.
Everyone should see this film!!!!
We need at least as many films on this difficult subject matter as there are Marvel Movies ongoing.
Not shocked #DisneyGroomers didn’t want this to get out. Happy to see Sound of freedom kicking #Disney ass
thank you for posting. grass roots is a great way to describe this phenomenon. hollywood and disney not only didn't support this movie, but they put up hurdles to try to suppress... remember it's based on a true story and Tim Ballard was hailed as a hero in the media when this actual operation took place years ago.
Sean I know you won’t read this but you jermey jahns flick pick and brad Jones are brave to review this movie no critic wants to touch this movie
We should be allowed to celebrate the message of a film whilst also critiquing this as a film.
No, someone who dislikes this film does not insyantly position them as a pedo or a rejector of the films message
fr lmao it was just very very mid from a critical viewpoint
@BiasedSpursFan oh no you might have just outed yourself as a groomer to the conservatives. Good thing their opinions of others don't matter
Thanks for the review! much appreciated!
Gods Children are not for sale.
It's shocking that people are really trying to attack this movie and downplay trafficking. Even if we entertain these people's weird and disgusting arguments, ANY trafficking is wrong. No human in a decent society deserves to be taken against their will and forced to do these horrible things. Especially children.
Thanks for reviewing this Sean ❤
I feel like this movie was more of a reality check to the viewer and an eye opener to the reality of human trafficking rather than trying to be a blockbuster action “ Taken” style movie than leaves us satisfied. It’s more to leave us unsatisfactory in our hearts and make us see our reality in this world.
thanks for reviewing this!!
For a country shouting the loudest "reparations for slavery" are the best at burring the MOST EVIL kind of slavery.
I saw "Sound of Freedom" and it was a REAL gut punch and emotional, very well made and at the end when he gave a special message the ENTIRE theater began clapping!!!
0:20 the Mouse has converted from entertaining children to devouring them. Disney is now EVIL.
I totally disagree with this guy the movie keeps you on edge. Great movie let's stop these people from doing what they're doing.
The thing I appreciate about this movie is the “lag” allowed me to calm down before the next big scene so I could refrain from yelling at the screen. It’s that powerful of a movie.
Somebody please spread this message:
Dear Chairman,
I am writing to you today as a concerned citizen who firmly believes in the power of the media to shed light on critical issues affecting our society. It has come to my attention that an alarming situation is unfolding at the southern borders of our nation-a situation that demands immediate attention and action.
According to credible reports and testimonies from various sources, including nonprofit organizations dedicated to combating human trafficking, it is estimated that a staggering $14 million is being generated daily through the heinous crime of child sex trafficking at our southern borders. This horrifying reality is a stark reminder that innocent children, our fellow human beings, are being exploited and subjected to unimaginable suffering for the greed of others.
What is deeply troubling is the apparent lack of effort or urgency displayed by our current presidential administration in addressing this pressing issue. The fact that such a massive and reprehensible crime is allowed to persist under their watch raises serious questions about their commitment to protecting the most vulnerable among us. As concerned citizens, we must not turn a blind eye to this grave injustice.
It is our firm belief that every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment, free from the clutches of exploitation and abuse. Our country was built on the principles of justice, compassion, and the protection of individual rights. It is disheartening to witness the continued suffering of innocent children who are falling victim to this horrifying crime.
We firmly believe that justice will prevail, and those responsible for perpetuating these heinous acts will face the consequences of their actions. Through the force of the Holy Spirit and the unwavering determination of individuals and organizations fighting against child sex trafficking, we remain hopeful that a brighter future awaits these young souls.
As members of the media, you have a powerful platform to inform and educate the public about pressing societal issues. We urge you to use your influence and resources to shed light on the alarming realities of child sex trafficking at our southern borders. It is crucial that the American people are not kept in the dark by our government, but rather empowered with the knowledge and awareness necessary to drive meaningful change.
We implore you to initiate investigative journalism, publish compelling stories, and engage in thought-provoking discussions that bring attention to this pressing issue. By doing so, you will not only help raise public awareness but also encourage our government to prioritize the eradication of child sex trafficking and the protection of our nation's most precious resource-the children.
Let us join hands and work together to ensure that our society provides a safe and secure future for all children. By uniting our voices, we can demand the necessary actions and policies to end child sex trafficking, bring the perpetrators to justice, and provide support and healing for the survivors.
Thank you for your time, attention, and dedication to your vital role as a guardian of truth and justice. Together, we can make a difference and create a world where God's children are not for sale.
May the force of the Holy Spirit guide us in our pursuit of justice.
Respectfully,
WE THE PEOPLE
Well, so many topics Hollywood does not want to be shown anyway just like with Gosnell or Unplanned. Hollywood knows how films, tv shows, other forms of art have a powerful effect on people.
Take your teenagers to see this film. It will do a better job opening doors to conversations about real world problems and internet safety and perversions that everyone needs to be guarded against. Society cannot thrive with these evils being normalized. It is such a great film---discreet and tactful yet brutally honest.
