Reviews

The New York Times -
Startlingly direct if unavoidably preachy, The Second Chance takes aim at Christianity's racial divide and the corporatization of faith. Its message is simple: being a Christian requires more than just dropping a check in the collection plate every Sunday morning.

|
Los Angeles Times -
A movie-of-the-week treatment of race and class, the film credibly portrays the day-to-day workings of an urban ministry.
|
|
Variety -
The crisply made feature delivers an involving if not always persuasive portrait of religious leaders in conflict.
|
|
Seattle Post-Intelligencer -
Competently directed by Christian music producer Steve Taylor, it's a sincerely (if not exactly subtly) performed spiritual drama with a faith-based lesson in humility and the practical charity of offering a helping hand.

|
TV Guide Magazine -
As a film, it is earnest, cliched, often awkward and unlikely to inspire anyone who isn't already thoroughly sold on its message of salvation through community activism.
