By definition, "audacity" can refer to sheer arrogance for the sake of arrogance, or boldness without any regard for self-preservation. In his latest film, "Audacity" (available for download on June 24, 2015), Ray Comfort and his staff at Living Waters Publications, graciously demonstrates the latter definition—boldness without any regard for self-preservation."Audacity" presents the truth with great compassion on the hotly debated topic of homosexuality and all that it entails (same-sex marriages, are people born gay, what does the Bible say about homosexuality, etc.). And there's no Disney-like scenes. It's real, edifying and offers true hope to all who watch this movie.This movie demonstrates God's definition of love—extraordinary compassion without compromising the truth. One of my favorite lines is from Peter (Travis Owens) who says, "If I really love people, then I have to say something. Love can't stay silent."

That is the main purpose of the film: to remind us that if we are good friends to someone and we want to help, doesn't matter the circumstances, we need to speak up. That's something that people forgot along the history trying to be politically correct and not upset anyone. But we all know: truth hurts sometimes... and it hurts so much that the receiver is in denial.The subject of the film: if being gay or not is a sin, if it's right or not... it depends on how you look at the "6" or "9" drawn with chalk on asphalt. And... here's your chance to look at it from both sides and decide which one you like to see.The author: doesn't stop to amaze me with the logic and the simple arguments that he's talking to people and how he gets people to agree with him. He has an unique style. I watched "180" and to see how people turned around regarding abortion was just beautiful.I give it a 10 because the film is done beautiful, the cast and crew did a good job and the story is powerful.PS :) I don't care if you don't agree with me :) Is my opinion :)

this kind and thoughtful film will help homosexuals live a life devoid of intimacy and human contact with the person they love. i know this is what Jesus wants for them. thank you ray and all the actors and actresses in the film. well, that really says it all, but IMDb wants me to complete 10 lines so: the actors and actresses are all pretty so i guess that makes it easier to like them? it is aimed at young people to offer them a way to argue that it's OK to sideline gay people forcing them to live a life without marriage or even a fulfilling relationship. acting is poor; script is very weak. points are easy to refute. generally, poorly made. don't think ray is going to win anyone over to his side with this movie.

If you enjoy the comedy stylings and gross generalizations of Mein Kampf, black face, and Birth of a Nation, then you simply MUST make space in your library for this new Banana Man production, Audacity! This shameless vehicle to promote Ray Comfort's Youtube videos that apparently just weren't getting the sort of views he'd hoped for is fun for the whole family! That is, if by fun you mean spending an hour of your life watching in disbelief and wondering what horrible things future generations are going to be thinking about the people of today. Audacity is the story of a white heterosexual Christian man grappling with the sort of persecution that men in his position must face every day in America. Every time he tries to lovingly tell someone that they're going to burn in a lake of fire for the rest of forever and ever and ever, the fictitious and unrealistically characterized homosexual characters he is trying to save get a little bit upset at him! This movie is truly deserving of it's title. Interspersed within the main "plot", of course, are the chopped and edited street preacher videos of Ray Comfort himself, speaking to a number of homosexuals and making the perfect argument as to why the god in which they all so conveniently happen to believe in loves them, and is willing to condemn them to eternal damnation to prove that love if they refuse to stop loving in the sort of loving way that they love other beloved creations of his whom he also loves..... …...uh.....BUT! If you're thinking that this all sounds a little too heavy to withstand for one single hour of your life, do not fret! Are you hoping for a bit of a mood lifter? Are you also thinking how much you miss those movies where a caveman gets frozen in a block of ice and then gets unfrozen in the future and can't quite make heads or tails of anything? Well then you're in luck, because the side character Ben (Ben Price), as far as I can tell was a caveman comedian who got frozen in the 1980s when doing impressions was still an acceptable form of comedy and then unfrozen in modern times and thrown into this movie to bring you the occasional taste of side splitting distraction from the icky images of gay intercourse starting to permeate your thoughts. Now I will admit, this movie is not without it's flaws. For one, I would have liked to see Ray try changing the mind of one of the gays that weren't already bible believers, since that's what his entire argument hinges on. Also, I'm still trying to figure out if the funniest part of the movie, when Diana (Molly Ritter) says the line, "So, I was just reading the bible, and it really got me to thinking..." is intended as a joke or.........oh what am I doing, this movie makes me feel so superior, and yet so persecuted at the same time, which perfectly perpetuates my flawed world view, and I promise it can do the same for you as long as you fall into the right demographic!
