I'm Not Ashamed
Based on the journal entries of Rachel Joy Scott, the first student killed in the Columbine High School shooting in 1999. She was the first person Harris and Klebold saw in their desire to kill as many people as possible, not because she was religious, as this movie will have you believe.

Thanks for the memories!
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Here's the thing, what happened at Columbine was a tragedy. And it was inevitable that somebody would come along and try to make a movie about it. The problem is instead of focusing on the events that took place and led up to the shooting we're instead shown the life of a young girl who was killed in the tragedy. That all by itself wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing as part of this is based on her diary and what her friends said of her. They even go as far as to portray her as a normal teen who sneaks out of her house to have some fun with her friends and have her drink and smoke. But they really played up the religious angle which would be fine if it actually had anything to do with the story. The idea is that the killers supposedly asked her before she was shot if she believed in God and when she said yes, they said, "go be with him" and shot her. The problem is, nobody else was around to have heard her say this. All this story is building up to her, when being faced with death, saying she believes in God knowing it would mean her death.And yet the killers also seemed to go after those that weren't believers. This is why I say this movie has an obvious agenda. And honestly I wouldn't mind so much. Religious movies are a big thing in today's world. The problem is when they decide to play fast and loose with the facts or reality in an attempt to sell their story.
Nice, touching movie that makes you think about yourself, about people aroud us and the world we live in. Movie that shows how one person can change other people lives and make a mark in the world just by being herself.
Based on the journal of a person who had got killed in the 1999 shooting at a high school in the US. Really inspiring character and the story, till that final horror event. But the real shame was, the filmmakers used it to promote religious. Or maybe they have highlighted too much from the religious aspect. Because, her life and that horrific event connected with her unexpected prediction which are only a coincident, rather any miracle from heaven. I'm not against believers, but I anticipated honest, a reality, not fantasy.So coming to the film, apart from misusing a real person's life, it was a nice film. Nice casting and performances. Masey McLain was so pretty and awesome in her role. Don't expect it to be the film about that 1999 shooting. It was not about that, except it had a connection as everything was built behind it. They have shown very little from that angle towards the end. Some of the real footage attached in those parts. Yeah, the end was emotional as expected. Everyone might not find it a good film for what I had told earlier, nevertheless the true story deserves some respect.6/10
This movie is amazing. the message is so real, and so powerful. I think it's a great testimony and a great , moving story. Everyone should see this, it will change your life! It has truly inspired me! I don't even know how to describe it. I've seen it several times with family & friends, and they all love it. We need more movies like this for sure. I just love how faithful Rachel was to God, despite her struggles and that she just did what she could with what she had and had faith that God would use her. Great movie!
