The Gospel

The Gospel. Great movie trailer or greatest movie trailer, ever? The latter.

Synopsis. “A young singer turns his back on God,” A DEFINITE MOVIE, NAY Life, FAUX PAS, “and his father's church when tragedy strikes” – AWESOME! “He returns years later” FUCK YEAH YEARS LATER! “to find the once powerful congregation in disarray” I LOVE DISARRAY. “With his childhood nemesis,” FUCK YOU, NEMESIS “creating a "new vision" for the church, he is forced to deal with family turmoil, career suicide, and relationship issues that send him on a collision course with redemption or destruction” WHOA.


Boris Kodjoe, the uber hero of African American cinema is back! You probably remember him from the rather Lynchian film Brown Sugar.



“It’s your father’s legacy. Who’s gonna fight for it if you don’t?” I would comment more on this trailer if I hadn't accidentily stapled a condom to my tongue earlier in the day. Check out the trailer, check out the Gospel.

20 bucks says that at some point in this movie some singer hits a really high note and everyone cheers.

Ha. Yeah, and there will be lots of shirt-off "Who are you really fighting for?" type moments. I also forsee "father" and "lord" appearing once or twice.
