Courageous Opens TODAY!

Last week I finally made it back to the theater to see the end of The Help (a must see movie for sure) and saw the preview for this movie.  I have to even the trailer is moving! It had my friend crying in the theater and then AGAIN on Sunday morning when our Pastor showed in during the announcement time at church.   I think it looks like it has the potentional to parenting relationships just like Fireproof changed marriages.  But don't take my word for it...check it out!



SHERWOOD PICTURES’ COURAGEOUS
REACHES MORE THAN $2 MILLION IN PRE-SALES

Film Opens Nationwide September 30th


CULVER CITY, CA (Sept. 29, 2011) – TriStar Pictures and Sherwood Pictures are pleased to announce that COURAGEOUS, the latest installment from Sherwood Pictures, has reached more than $2 million in pre-sales ticketing in anticipation of Friday’s national release.

Pre-sales numbers for COURAGEOUS more than double that of Sherwood Pictures’ most recent film, Fireproof, which opened at $6.8 million and went on to gross more than $33.4 million at the box office.

COURAGEOUS is the fourth release from the moviemaking ministry of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia.  The first release was Flywheel (2003), followed by Facing The Giants (2006) and Fireproof (2008).  With each release, Sherwood Pictures continues to entertain moviegoers with films that affect lives through heartfelt stories of faith and hope.

 “Such great advance momentum reaffirms that the topic of fathers is universal and that COURAGEOUS touches a nerve,” Sherwood Pictures Executive Producer Michael Catt said.  “Present or absent, fathers shape lives and we’re excited to use drama, adventure, humor  . . . to inspire men to the high adventure of full-on parenting.”

COURAGEOUS
is the story of four police officers with one calling: to serve and protect. As law enforcement officers, the men are confident and focused. Yet at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle:  fatherhood.  With God’s help, they struggle to be able to find a way to serve and protect those that are most dear to them.  COURAGEOUS is rated PG-13 (for some violence and drug content) and runs 129 minutes.
