Definitely recommended! My entire family loves it~~~ and my son, who does NOT play, saw it for the first time when he was 9 :)
I was wondering if anyone has seen Facing the Giants. My 12 yr old son plays football, and wondering if this would be good for him to watch.
What is this movie about??
A parent on my son's football team brought us the movie to watch. It was actually pretty good, and I think my husband needed to watch this more than our son. Awesome movie!!

Oh yes, great movie.
I love this movie! It would be okay for your twelve year to watch it. It is a very uplifting movie! If you google "facing the giants" several websites come up that you can read about the movie.
i have seen it, it's a great movie.
its a reall great movie, this was a first movie for most of the actors so the acting in the beginning is really (bad) but you can tell when the actors became more comfortable in front of the camera their acting improves greatly. its such a great story. my hubby actually teared up towards the end. and he is a "mans man" its well worth it to watch over and over. the underline story is about not giving up that God will provide but he will make you work for it, and his reward to you is greater than what you were asking for.
I don't even like football and LOVED the movie! It's a great family film for ALL ages!
Loved it! It is a faith-based movie, and it has a great message: Give it your best and leave the rest up to God.
It's a Christian based movie that is about how bringing God into your everyday life will make everything around you go better. It is an amazing movie! I LOVED IT!!!
EXCELLENT movie for him to watch! It is a faith based movie. Of course involving football and a coach that made them believe in themselves and much more. Watch it together. I use it to train my team members
its fantastic! My grandpa made it!
It is an amazing movie and my 10 year old son loves it!
Awesome movie. My family loves it. We had to buy a new one because the kids have watched it so much the DVD wouldn't play right.
Great movie! It is a very positive themed movie interwoven around a small town and it's football team. I definitely think a 12 year old would be mature enough to "get it" (the message) while still appreciating the many football scenes as well. And, don't just get it for him...sit down and watch together, you'll be enlightened too. My entire family enjoyed it. It is made by the same people who made The Love Dare, also a very good watch, highly recommended. Enjoy. :)
*I'd like to add that Flywheel (mentioned below) was the first movie these people made and it is true, you can tell. But it is still a good movie. They really got it together for Facing the Giants and The Love Dare though. If you read the story behind how theses films were made I seriously doubt you'll think one second about how it's missing out on big Hollywood types and the bazillion dollar budget - you may actually come to appreciate that, as I did. :)
it was low budget - but I actually quite liked it, it would be good for you to watch, they also did another one called flywheel, which was not as good
