Signs for sure, though it’s essentially an argument for Calvinism… End of the Spear, even though I haven’t seen it… Chronicles of Narnia, of course; the Passion, yes, even though it doesn’t have a Christian ‘message’ (it shows how not cool the crucifixion was, but it doesn’t explain it in the slightest...); Bruce Almighty, of course, and I loved Morgan Freeman as God!  The exorcism of Emily Rose featured a priest as a more or less good guy, though I don’t know if that makes it ‘Christian’; a Walk to Remember?  yeah, that was a pretty decently Christian movie, although I think it was mostly a touching story with a Christian as the main character.
The trick here is to separate movies about Christianity (or with a Christian message) from movies featuring Christians.  The two aren’t necessarily the same.
My two cents.

Bruce Almighty was rather blasphemous, and I’m not a prude. Wlk the line was an okay movie, but I don’t think it really covered Johnny Cash’s later conversion and stronger beliefs in Jesus.
It was just June’s determination to straighten Him out. Signs had that underlying theme of finding your faith again, and that God is at work though we may not understand His ways. I can’t cooment on too many others.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen X2, but I can’t remember anything about it that would put it on this list.  Did I miss something?

Why would LOTR be on here?  Yes, it’s by a Christian, but Tolkein claimed it was just a story, not an allegory.

The way some of these seem to have been selected, they may as well have put War of the Worlds on the list also, since Morgan Freeman’s lines at the beginning and end imply that God was involved.

A few I would have used instead:
“Simon Birch” would be way up there. “A Perfect Stranger” was made to be a Christian message movie, based on the book “Dinner With a perfect Stranger”.

Some of their list don’t seem like movies I would qualify as “Christian”, any more than I would consider Woody Allen’s “Bananas” a Jewish movie.

Bobby, lol… And how about “The Omega Code”?

I’m a HUGE movie buff, I can speak to what I think put some of these on the list.

2. X2: X-Men United (shows Christ-like self sacrifice - also, producer Ralph Winter is a believer)
5. Signs (shows a man returning to faith after understanding how God works things together for good. Pretty sure Shyamalan is not a believer, though...)
6. Walk the Line (Cash was a Christian, and his faith is briefly alluded to and displayed)
7. The End of the Spear (obviously a film made by Christians for Christians)
8. Chronicles of Narnia (also obvious)
9. Lord of the Rings (obvious to me, not to everyone. Tolkien’s worldview was very Christian, and his story, I feel, can’t be understood apart from that, and was very well translated to the screen.)
10. The Passion (Sorry, I DO think this was a Christian film, and I do think Mel is a real believer...)
12. Bruce Almighty (Director is a believer, view of God is pretty accurate I think.)
14. The Apostle (Robert Duvall is admittedly not a Christian, but the film has value nonetheless)
15. Babette’s Feast (BEAUTIFUL story of self-sacrifice, one of the all-time greats. Rent it today.)
16. The Exorcism of Emily Rose (I thought it was a reasonably accurate depiction of how evil and hell behave. I understand believers were involved in either directing, producing or writing)
18. A Walk to Remember (I’m not sure it was produced, written, or directed by a believer, but it has some awesome Switchfoot music. Isn’t that enough?)
20. Shadowlands (There’s two of these, btw, one that was made for the BBC which shows C.S.Lewis’ faith pretty well, and the movie with Anthony Hopkins which buries it.)

Well, it is obvious from these comments that what is sorely needed is a definitive explanation of what, exactly, makes a movie “Christian.” I am so happy to help. I posted a response over at the View From Her that really just simplifies the whole thing. 

What happened to Because of Winn-Dixie?

I see I’m going to have to visit the video store to check out a few of these.

Since Shadowlands and Narnia were listed, I thought I’d mention a cool little Lewis flick I saw recently.  It’s called “Beyond Narnia” (I think) and it has an actor portray Lewis telling his life story. It’s filmed at Oxford and The Kilns and almost the entire script is taken verbatim from Lewis’ work, primarily “Surprised by Joy” and “A Grief Observed.” I thought it was very well done.  Stumbled across it at the local Hollywood Video.

I had big issues with “Pay It Forward” which as I recall, had someone buy a bottle of booze for an alcoholic.  That was presented as a positive, as was the hospital ER scene where a man pulled a gun to get what he wanted.  Negatives portrayed as positives outweigh any good qualities the movie may have had.  Then again it’s been a while since I saw it, but I do remember my reaction at the time.

Not only is Chariots of Fire a clearly Christian movie, the heading is TOP 20 Christian movies, which may be speaking of the artistic quality. COF won an Academy Award for Best Picture, so how many Christian flicks get that kind of recognition? To leave it off this list is a glaring error.
