“This film was born out of one of the most difficult times in my life,” says Writer/Director Jason Mac. “My father was my protector; a guardian I knew would always be there, and then one day he wasn’t. The loss forced me to look inside and really explore what it was to be a father. Too many young men have no male role model growing up, so I hope that becomes a lesson and learning from this film.”
Inspire men to know how to be fully engaged, become a man of action, and build a legacy for his family.
Check out the Review from Dove Foundation
A film that contains both a powerful story and interesting characters is always well worth the time, and A Father’s Legacy is one of these movies....
The acting is superb...
There are a few twists by the film’s conclusion, but this movie contains a satisfying ending which definitely lives up to its title. The character of Billy is a bit gruff, and there are some uses of mild language, but the theme of doing the right thing and the need for good fathers to guide their children is nicely demonstrated in this movie. It has merited our Dove seal for Ages 12+.
The DOVE Take:
This is a wonderful story about two unlikely people who form a bond, and it is entertaining yet educational regarding the important themes of life. See FULL review here.
Faith: A strong faith message with men reading the Bible, a quoted Bible verse, and praying.
Integrity: A character keeps telling another how important it is to do the right thing and he is a good example himself.
Language: Some uses of the word “H” along with “A**” and “BS”; “Geez”; “P*** you off”; “Shut up”
Drugs/Alcohol: A couple of scenes of drinking beer, including a toast; a character says, “I need a beer.”
Other: A man is held against his will in his home; tension and arguments between a few characters; death and grief; the topic of not being raised by a dad.
