Reception
Melissa Camacho of Common Sense Media awarded the film three stars out of five.[2]
Steven D. Greydanus of the National Catholic Register gave the film a negative review and wrote, “For me, Resurrection detracts more than it adds. Those who are content with a rehearsal of material they already know well and are willing to overlook substantial departures from the material may be edified. By my lights, that’s not enough.”[3]
