Review of Kidnapped for Christ (2014) by Cameron C — 11 Jul 2016
Kidnapped for Christ (2014, D: Kate Logan) is one of the most thought provoking, and disturbing, documentaries to come out in the last decade. What started out as a young woman trying to show how Christian Reform Camps can help improve a child's life and set them on the path of Christ, turned into a massive expose exposing the brutal truths of these unregulated camps.
I am a Christian, and I do not believe in any way that this movie is against Christians or slamming them, I believe that this documentary is about a broken system, a system that has many people in it who abuse children, wrongly twisting the words of The Bible to fit their own personal agendas.
The young Kate Logan shows a mature ability at making films way beyond her years. In any one else's hands this could have been an utter disaster, filled with all the wrong facts and information, but in this young filmaker's hands, hands that have no prior experience, no big money backing her, nothing to lose...this film turned into a masterpiece.
I truly believe that this may by one of the most important documentaries to come out in our time, and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Rating: 4 Stars out of 5.
