God's Not Dead 2 is a sequel to the first, which wasn't well-received by critics for its preachy tone and others calling it unrealistic. This one is certainly a disappointment-at least, it was for me. The film starts off pretty entertaining at first, but then gets more boring as it goes on.

High school history teacher Grace Wesley (Melissa Joan Hart) comes under fire for answering a student's (Hayley Orrantia) question about Jesus. When Grace refuses to apologize, the school board votes to suspend her and threatens to revoke her teaching certificate.
Undercut by its poor writing and weak performances, God's Not Dead 2 is a rather cheesy religious drama. When a high school history teacher is suspended for talking about Jesus Christ in the classroom a legal battle ensues, with the teach trying to be true to her faith and the ACLU trying to destroy her career and make an example out of her.
The percentage of Approved Tomatometer Critics who have given this movie a positive review.
What’s more, as the debates play out, Wheaton uses a quote from Lee Strobel about the evolution of living things through the ages and a quote from the Roman Catholic astronomer Georges Lemaitre describing how the big bang corresponds to “let there be light” in Genesis 1:3 as his evidence for God’s existence.
Further, it was a very engaging storyline with interesting twists and crossing plotlines. Several characters gave up important things to profess their faith in Christ. However, all of these positive elements are overshadowed by the failure to acknowledge God’s Word and character as the foundation of the Christian worldview. While the film approached the topic of evil in the world, it abandoned the ability to answer that question by demanding that God brought life into the world through the process of death through evolutionary processes. It presented an origin for the universe that requires a rewriting of the events of Genesis 1 to accept.
Negative —I’m a firm believer in not just liking a movie *just because* it’s Christian or has a high “moral rating” from many evangelicals out there. This film does not acknowledge atheists who simply disbelieve because they just don’t believe. And that’s not the only problem. There are many tired old arguments hashed out in this movie against atheists, such as the “without God, atheists have no justification for being moral” claim.
“Noah,” “Son of God,” “Mary,” a remake of “Ben-Hur,” “Exodus”—starring Christian Bale as Moses, “Cain and Abel” with Will Smith, and remember the recent film “The Investigator”—a homicide detective investigating Jesus” death and resurrection. “God’s NOT Dead” is an excellent movie, the plot centered on a student stands up to the misotheist professor (not atheist but misotheist) who is angry with the very idea of God. You can argue Kevin Sorbo’s character Prof. Radisson is an atheist as the initial taking is that he refuses to believe God’s existence.
