Cast & crew
I work with an agency that represents Angel Studios. After spending time learning about the movie industry, "The Mountain Top" has great cinematography and great acting. No over-emoting. It's similar in some ways to The Shack. God is moving in both lead characters' lives. The pacing is good. The storyline is believable. Greed. It's always about the money. Check it out. You will enjoy it. There's no nudity, no killing, or chase scenes. And all of that brings the flick closer to what really happens in life.
