What Courageous Is About

Four police officers who suffer a loss on duty decide to reconsider their own fathering and to make a promise to each other. The film hides nothing about its message; the narrative is built directly as an appeal and the scenes are arranged to carry it. There are action sequences, and the film mainly proceeds as a sermon. Alex Kendrick directed and plays one of the leads. It was produced by a church congregation, largely with volunteers. Who it's for: viewers looking for faith-based family drama. Who it's not for: those wanting a police drama where the message stays in the background; the film never attempts that.
