Jim Caviezel’s Sound of Freedom is engulfed by one controversial opinion after another. A movie that was first supposed to highlight important themes that shed light on the darkness in the world quickly became what many came to define as propaganda. Caviezel has worked on some iconic films including Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, The Count of Monty Cristo, and Outlander.

His range of roles is nothing short of good performances. However, it was this one movie that brought about a conflicted response. Upon its release, the film only managed to gain 57% on Rotten Tomatoes. So much so that fans were not happy, polarizing their opinions in ways where some liked the film and some did not. However, it is Amazon Prime’s release date that is bringing fans together once again, and not in a good way.
