Review of In God's Hands

8/10
never mind the low ratings, see this movie

"In god's hands" is about a state of mind. It's about rejection of the standard, socially accepted path and the pursuit of true freedom and inner peace. Zalman King put together a great movie flawed only by a weak cast (great surfers, bad actors). The major plot flaws are the silly action sequence at the beginning and the Keoni illness part which is way too long, disrupting the rhythm of the movie. There aren't too many movies like this one, Zalman King and Matt George deserve all the respect for trying to make a difficult story work as a movie. The cinematography is simply amazing, John Aronson is a master of his craft. The 4.5 stars rating is ridiculous and while I'm not saying this is a fantastic movie I'm really upset that so many people missed the point completely. Maybe they like Break Point and Drop Zone, and that's fine, but giving such low ratings to a movie which is so honest and pure is totally undeserved. See the movie, you won't regret it.
