Father Stu was so much more than I was expecting. Mark Wahlberg really nailed it. I could feel his pain and suffering and the faith that he developed. The transition that his character goes through is remarkable.
This was based on a true story, my heart goes out to this guy. At every attempt of doing the right thing, he is struck down with another obstacle again and again. Through his perseverance and faith, he still kept trying. He never quit, even when his body was quitting on him.

Anyone that needs help being strong and courageous should totally watch this movie. Anyone that is feeling beat down by life should totally watch this movie. It was very well done and had an amazing cast. Everyone shined in their own way.
My only negative thing to say is that it was quite long. It did kind of dip for a bit but they picked it back up and finished strong. Hmmm, that kind of sounds like a description of Father Stu.
I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.
Grade: B+
About The Peetimes: I’ve got the Peetimes spread out enough to get you through the movie. The 2nd Peetime is traumatic so I’m definitely going to recommend that one.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Father Stu.

Movie Watching Must Have!!
I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!
