Her father said her birthright was sealed. A frontier pastor’s love told her otherwise. But when their daughter is kidnapped by her outlaw grandfather, can this couple trust God—and each other—to rewrite their destiny?
My Review:BIRTHRIGHT OUTLAW is a wonderful movie about life on the frontier, family loyalty, and faith. The film starts with a humorous interaction between Pastor Jeremiah Jacobs and his wife Martha. They, along with their teen-aged daughter Hope, appear to be a perfect family. However, when Hope is kidnapped, we learn that Martha has a secret past. Will her loyalty to Jeremiah and faith in God waver when she learns her outlaw father (Jeff Fahey) has Hope and demands his daughter return to her old life.
The movie has very strong characters, and it's always great to see strong, capable women in roles. Themes of forgiveness, second chances, hope, faith despite circumstances, and trusting God when chaos has turned your life upside down. I love the actors in "Birthright Outlaw" and I've never seen an Aaron Burns film I didn't enjoy. I recognize several names in the crew who also make outstanding films. There are several twists and turns along the way with each step bringing the characters to a firmer foundation. I highly recommend it.

Together they'll discover how to trust again and what it means to be a family. Legacy Peak will be exclusively on Pure Flix starting September 22nd!
"Legacy Peak" is a movie about pushing past your fear to start a new adventure!
MY REVIEW: I was unsure about Legacy Peaksince adventure-type films is not my first choice, but I am a fan of Lucas Black (Jason) and Todd Terry (Grandpa). It did not take long for me to become immersed in the story! Jason wants to marry Noelle, so flying her two kids to their grandparent's mountain cabin seems like a fun way for the three of them bond while Noelle ties up loose ends before traveling by car.
A meticulous planner, Jason has a
notebook filled with schedules and ideas to achieve his goal of getting
the approval of Noelle's children and dad. Of course, plans fall apart
when he is forced to make an emergency landing. Teenager Sam (Kyleigh Bakker) is suspicious of Jason's intentions and reluctant to trust him. Her younger brother Ben (Roman Engel) is enthused, impulsive, and prepared to accept Jason wholeheartedly! Miles from civilization, they have to learn to work together to survive the cold, wolves, and their own fears and insecurities. Ben is also diabetic, so finding food and shelter is vital.
Lucas was perfect in his role as a man who works through his own insecurities and proves himself. Kyleigh and Roman were both very good at character development and it didn't feel like a rush to tie up the loose endings. Todd had a small role, but his character was a man of compassion, kindness, humor, and dependability. Director Aaron Burns also wrote the story and Matt Mikalatos (who is also a fantastic author,) wrote the screenplay. I loved the movie and highly recommend it for a family night film. (*some scenes may be scary for the under-10 kids)
