It's an eye opener, seeing people around my age fall into the trap. They are being brainwashed and many of them will grow up to have kids and brainwash them. It will be a cycle, but luckily, it's a minority. I find it disgusting of what's going on. I know for a fact my parents would never let me go to a place like that. The one time I went to a summer camp that was religious and it told me we had to tell people about Jesus so non-Christians wouldn't burn in hell. When I told my mom about what they told me, she called the camp and insulted them like crazy. Obviously I've never been to that place again. I also found it funny how the head of the camp made such a big deal out of the innocent Harry Potter books. I don't read them, but I know there's nothing wrong with them. There was one kid there whose parents were divorced and it was a big thing seeing his dad, because his dad would let him watch Harry Potter, while his mom wouldn't. I bet his mom's religious beliefs had something to do with the divorce.

Jesus Camp is disturbing in a way even the scariest horror films can't match. To know that there are really children with great potential who are being brainwashed into blind obedience and to know that these brainwashed people will end up controlling our country is frightening in it's own way.

+ thought provoking + dosen't take a side + lots of "whoa" moments + some really funny parts - only one issue of the documentary which isn't really enough for a full length movie - some boring repetetive scenes

I find it hard to say something about this movie. Its a documentary about kids that go to jesus camp and there they are taught to expand their religious views. When I watched this movie I had the eerie feeling that these kids where being brain washed so to speak. Its almost like watching a meeting of the junior religous right. You could literally see them getting ready to tell these kids that anyone who does not believe is evil. Maybe thats what they did when they turned off the cameras. I guess this is a view from the extreme religious right. Seeing the kids crying and praying and talking in tongue made me wince. Sorry to say. Its hard to say whether these kids go here because they want to or they are scared not to go. This movie is a solid rental in that you get to see a view of life which most people do not know. You really see how people from the religious right live their lives and raise their kids. Its really scary hearing some of the things that these kids say. There is no basic plot in this movie it just shows the camp and what the kids go through in the camp.
