Christian movie that perhaps is more enjoyable for those who are already Christians

The story is about a guy who wants a girl that happens to be Christian,but what he really wants is just a new chick.He is used to pretend to be something he is'nt ,just to get the girl he wants and after he got what he wants from her then dump her after a couple of months.(eh...this kind of guys don't exist in real life,or what do you think?) Coldhearted as he is he pretends to have recently become a Christian(wonder if thats why the movie is called"The Pretender"...)anyway,he manages quite well and begins to date her.

This is a real low-budget movie(if you want cool stunts and special effects,Don't watch this movie,the closest to special effects you get here is perhaps the end-credits...)But it wasn't meant to be an action movie anyway,its a drama so its not anything unusual about that.The actors are not bad,but its about the same quality that you could expect to see in an ordinary TV-soap. The movie feels like an journey back to the eighties,and I somehow enjoyed watching it(partially because I'm an Christian myself)It's not good and not bad,it's an number five out of ten,although it might only be entertaining and"good"to someone who is an Christian himself...

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
