Columbine High School student Rachel Joy Scott grew up knowing the love of God but wasn't always ready to receive it. At times her faith is strong, but at other times, she finds that it's at odds with her daily life. After a difficult breakup with her non-believing boyfriend, Rachel finds inspiration from a formerly homeless teen, and her renewed commitment to Christ plays out powerfully at her high school and around the world. Based on a true story.

The film is not likely to lure any converts.

Even though this is a (mostly) true story, the forced ironies of having infamous teen mass-murderers interact with the heroine feels more than a little exploitative.

Ultimately it's just another vehicle for a series of scenes in which devout characters remind each other that God has it all under control.

This biopic is no doubt for the devout, but this isn't a completely unwatchable movie like so many others in the devotional genre.

I'm sure in reality Rachel Joy Scott was a nice person with good intentions and a fine heart. I just wish we could hear her story without an agenda attached to it.

Must see! Amazing true story where most of the dialogue between the lead characters Rachel and Nathan were their actual words written to each other in a shared journal. Rachel’s faith and love will change you forever in a wonderful way brilliant acting by Masey McClain and Ben Davies

You can tell all the "official" movie reviewers are liberal…

A cheap teenage drama about how God is around us and always loves us.

Not the best acting but the story was one deserving to be told.

I'm not a movie critic or anything, but I connected with the main character "Rachel" I thought her character devolpement was good and it made me emotional. I think if it wasn't based on a real event the ratings would be higher, but overall I enjoyed this movie. I'm actually surprised the ratings are so low. Maybe it's because of political or "pandering" or religious things that I personally didn't care about as someone who just watches movies. Overall I recommend it if you just want something that makes you smile, and makes you shed a tear or 100.
