Golden Mind (2013) Reviews
Horatio Alger?
Although the film comes out as a large commercial for the selling and trading of precious metals to make your fame and fortune, Golden Mind still has enough of a Christian story in it for church audiences and only for church audiences. I have to say that at certain points of the film I was moved, but when I finished it and looked back on what I saw I realize my emotions were being manipulated. Josiah David Warren was just too much of a goody goody and I fear would not in real life be the success he made himself into. For one thing child welfare surely would have stepped in with no father and a minor child in the picture even with Warren 18 he was still going to high school. To emphasize how poor he was the first part of the film he went totally without shoes, just wearing sandals without socks to school. Glad he got some footwear when he made a few dollars. Didn't improve the rest of his wardrobe. Be frugal, invest in precious metals and become a born again Christian are the secrets of success. Were it only that simple. Golden Mind tries to be a 21st century Horatio Alger story, but Alger's heroes may have struck gold, but never invested that way.
When you have no budget...
... you make a movie that: I could go on like this but to make it short and clear... I think this is an atrocious bad movie that unfortunately falls into the category of "small budget propaganda" christian type movies. There are more inspirational videos on youtube that will make your time worth. I am a christian and I believe in God, but I can't enjoy a movie that lacks everything that makes it a movie in the first place, and that's: Good story, good screenplay, good acting, good music and good enough cinematography. This movie only had a somewhat good story or better said good-intended story because the actual result was a total mess. I don't even know if this movie got any cinema release or if it was made only for DVD release and sold to christian TV channels. There are many christian thematical movies out there that are way better than this. And there are movies with huge budgets and work poured into them that have even lower rating than this movie. That's why I'm giving it a 3/10. It's not total garbage but it's close. It's so sad to see such an interesting concept of a story wasted in such a bad movie. It's just very very sad...
