The Walk (2004)

The Walk is a contemporary Urban Christian feature film starring Eva Pigford (America's Top Model winner), Tech Holmes (MTV Real World), and Regina Bell (Grammy Award winning, R&B recording artist) that chronicles a turbulent period in the life of Sydney – a young and frustrated African-American woman. The film follows Sydney as she struggles with numerous conflict-filled relationships. With a faithful youth minister as her guide, Sydney embarks on a harrowing personal journey fraught with shrouded truths as she seeks to embrace inner peace and Jesus Christ as her savior.

The movie was ok, Eva needs to work on her acting skills a little more. March 12, 2007

GOOD MESSAGE -- HORRIBLE DELIVERY..........

I, as others have stated, picked this one up because I saw Eva Pigford on the cover (and it was only $5.50 at Wal-Mart). In spite of the obvious fact that this film had a very low budget, and substandard equipment, the acting could have been much better.
At times, I think the delivery would have been better if the characters had read straight from the script, rather than having what they attempted to memorize spew from their mouths with little to no effort or emotion.

I enjoyed this one over a rainy day of movie watching and found the story to be somewhat convoluted, unrealistic and sketchy at times. By the end of the movie, you get the point, but don't quite understand the route used to get the viewer there. Important facts were omitted and unnecessary fluff added...

If you happen to come across it at a friend or family members' house, pop it in. But by no means should anyone go out in search of this one to add to their movie collection.

Not mad about spending the $5.50...but I wouldn't recommend this one to others.

Not well put together

This film is about a girl who gets into the wrong crowd after her father's death.I found it was disjointed though. Tek's character was interesting while Eva's was not developped. The film had some kind of haze in many of the scenes (useless as far as i am concerned
). Sometimes shes dreaming, other's she's not and you can't tell one from the other. The acting didn't seem to come natural. The film could have included more scenes which would have showed how hard it was for Eva's character. In the end she just comes around and her Christian mother couldn't be happier.
There are better inspirational films to choose from. November 25, 2006

Typical Christian Movie Quality

I hate to 'trash' a movie that is trying to bring a good message about Christianity, but this movie suffers in several ways. First, the photography is somewhat strange, with an eerie light cast over the whole movie. Second, the acting is just that, acting; few, if any, of the characters have done enough acting to really be able to get 'into' their role . . . to make it lifelike. Finally, I think the plot, or editing, is somewhat confusing so in the end they resort to a long sermon. The film does try to bring a Christian message, but it is like most 'Christian' movies in that the message is more important than the story, so the story seems contrived to get the message across. I'd say that this movie is best left to showings in church youth groups where it serves as a springboard for discussion in the group.

[For an outstanding movie with a Christian message that does not in any way seem contrived, see the Disney movie 'Ruby Bridges.'] July 31, 2006

Eva does a good job.

Well I heard good things about "The Walk" so I decided to check it out. It's a really good movie that sends a good message. Eva did a really good job (for this to be her 1st leading role) portraying a trouble young woman......& I got "The Walk" from Wal-mart for $5.50. June 5, 2006
