It's Official: Kirk Cameron's "Saving Christmas" is the Worst-Rated Movie on IMDB

It's official:  Kirk Cameron's latest movie "Saving Christmas" is the worst-rated movie on IMDB.  "Saving Christmas" ranks at #1 on the site's list of its 100 worst movies.  Despite Cameron's call for his fans to "storm the gates of Rotten Tomatoes," in an effort to get his new movie, Saving Christmas, some good reviews, this has not helped the movie's rating.  The movie now has a zero per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

In an attempt to bridge the culture and the Christian faith, in the movie, Cameron goes on to argue in the movie to make connections between Christmas trees and Santa Claus to Jesus Christ.  Many critics felt that the Fireproof star has gone too far and that his reasonings were weak. Cameron undoubtedly maintains that everything involved with the Christmas celebration is paying homage to the birth of Jesus, Santa Claus, the carols, and the tree. 

"It's not sinful to have a Christmas tree," the father of six continued, "While Christmas trees are not in the Bible per-say you do find God making trees, you find God filling trees with fruit in the book of Genesis, you even find him putting lights on the branches of an almond tree and turning it into a lamp stand in the tabernacle and he gives gifts to his children at the base of trees." 

The film features Cameron and his brother-in-law who oppose the traditions of the holiday and simply want to celebrate the savior's birth without the distractions of everything else. Cameron says the character was "ruining Christmas for his wife, he's scrooge, he simply was listening to the wrong people," he asserted, "his intentions were good because he wants it to be about Jesus but he was just looking at it wrong so I had to come help him out, that's all."

Here are some of the comments about "Saving Christmas" from critics:

"I don't even know where to begin. This is the most intellectually draining movie I have ever seen, it was even worse than God Is Not Dead. The acting was poor. The premise was bland. Every other word out of Kirk Cameron's mouth is a lie."

"I created this account just to give this 1 star. That's how bad it was. I went into this expecting a generic Christmas movie, and I didn't even get that. The "plot" is awful. I put plot in quotation marks because I'm not even sure if this movie has one. Two guys walk out to a car and talk for an hour. That's all that happens. It's basically a feature length sermon, and a crappy one at that. There are literally NO redeeming qualities in this film. The camera work is extremely amateurish, and the acting and direction were absolutely abysmal. I had extremely low expectations for this, and it still managed to be disappointing."  

"This movie will make your brain numb if you have any historical knowledge about the origin of Christmas. Kirk is a made for TV actor at best. Their is no real plot instead of the movie I expected I was bombarded with a lecture that was inaccurate at best. The holiday season is filled with winter celebrations that can and should be shared across cultural lines. Everyone deserves to be respected and should be allowed to celebrate as they see fit. This movie makes it seem as if Christians lack the capacity to let others believe how they see fit. Instead of reaching out and showing peace and love to all. Happy Holidays... "

"Saving Christmas" is in direct violation of Romans 14:5-6 and 22-23, twists Scripture, reconstructs history and encourages gluttony. There's nothing in this film that is "wholesome" and good for anyone, believer or non-believer. Let's save others from Kirk and crew's version of Christ's first coming and celebrate (if your conscience allows) with reverence, awestruck wonder and with the true and great joy that envelopes all who are humbled by and grateful for God's most amazing Gift--Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God."
