Ordinary Angels

Hilary Swank always brings her best and this is no exception. She plays a flawed but driven woman who sets out to save a little girls life. It was worth watching, but not everyone will enjoy it.

Inspiring true story, with a performance by Hillary Swank that steals the show.

I don't think this is a particularly great movie but it does have some things going for it. The two youngest performers do well with what they are given, and that's basically true for all involved. Make no mistake, this is a faith-based movie, but it's not obnoxiously religious; religious themes are there but rarely at the forefront of what's going on. The emotional content is strong and it definitely got me towards the end, but that's low-hanging fruit with me. It does its job for most viewers.
