Breakthrough Movie review

Breakthrough is a Christian movie based on a true life event. Its storyline is similar to that of Miracles from Heaven because in both movies the main characters suffered from sicknesses. The movie speaks on perseverance, humility and gratitude.
This movie is of  a teenager John Smith (Marcel Ruiz) who fell through a frozen lake while playing  with his friends. He was underwater for 15 minutes before the ambulance came and his heart stopped beating. Joyce Smith (Chrissy Metz) his mother was told that he was not responding to treatment and he had no pulse. Devastated she cried to God and John's heart begins to beat. Despite the miracle the doctor still told John's parents not to ua e hope that John might not recover and even if he does he would have severe brain damage. But does Joyce give up? Does John recover?

This movie is heart touching and the cast were able to carry the audience along through the rollercoaster ride of emotions they passed through. Although it is different from what lovers of faith based movies are used to because it is more real and reflects the life of a true American Christian. This makes the movie unique and enables it to capture the hearts of the audience.
