4.0 out of 5 stars Good Message
If you compare this to celebrity actresses/actors it will just not match up. However the message makes the poor acting in scenes do-able.

I think that in the end the short film in it self, just was not long enough to develop the relationship that the audience needs to see between Josh & Sophie, but you understand where the idea is going.

What...

2.0 out of 5 stars The Transition From Porn To Mainstream Isn't An Easy One To Make.
It's painful to watch Moran struggle through this film, clearly trying too hard to prove herself as a legitimate actress. Zimpel is adequate, given the material he's working with. I didn't necessarily want these 32 minutes back, as the film was mildly entertaining. However, I don't think I would pay $15 to view it.

I think that in the end the short film in it self, just was not long enough to develop the relationship that the audience needs to see between Josh & Sophie, but you understand where the idea is going.

What would Hosea look like if in today's world it took place? If a Pastor married a Stripper? How would people respond? How would churches respond. It takes a hard look at the reality of where church stands, while it shows the reality of what God calls us to do. To show grace where even looking at each of our own lives grace is not deserved.

It is no where close to the depth of the Book of Hosea, but it gives a fresh look into how we can transpose something in the Bible to making it relevant today. The Narrator & Pastor sums up the story well, and sums up that this is in no way to replace Hosea in the least.

In the end, I think the ideas of the movie were good, though the relationships within needed to be lengthen. And the acting wasn't the best, I think the pastor summed it up nicely in the end. For a short-film thats 32 minutes long I think it got the message across that God shows grace where it is not deserved.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love Crissy Moran so I wanted to see this movie..., September 17, 2010
This review is from: Oversold (Amazon Instant Video)
Crissy Moran is a woman of God, it takes bravery to come out of the porn industry and then confess that you have given your life to Jesus Christ and left that former life behind... I support this movie, it is cool, I hope Crissy continues to make more movies

This review is from: Oversold (DVD)
I saw a review that said Christina "Crissy" Moran was a lot like Natalie Wood. When I saw that I had to see the movie. I was not disappointed. I was a great Natalie Wood fan as was everyone I knew. Now I am a big Christina Moran fan
