For what it is, and for who it is for, Redeeming Love is in its own way an effective showing of the power of love. Undoubtedly, however, a more compelling romantic drama about a woman finding peace with herself could have been told.
The biggest problem is that the most touching moments are hammered so hard. "Redeeming Love" could have tried to reach a broader audience but settles for preaching to the choir.

Redeeming Love is an incident-rich saga populated by cardboard heroes and villains and outfitted with greeting-card sentiments and cartoon villainy.
Stuck in this largely infantilized role, Cowen imbues Angel with as much verve and spunk as she can; she’s often funnier and darker than necessary, offering a refreshing dash of acid to temper the sickly sweetness.
Redeeming Love is a kinky power fantasy in the halfway convincing disguise of wholesome faith-based entertainment.
A Hallmark movie with a major dose of God thrown in, I’m sure there’s an audience out there for Redeeming Love. After all, 3 million people who bought the book can’t be wrong (they can, it’s trash). Think Little House on the Prairie on Cialis.
The film is too narrow-minded to explore the notion that a saint-like man may want to satisfy his normal carnal desires.
Go see this movie. Today!

The first idea that occurred to me was a "Pretty Woman" for evangelicals with drama in place of comedy. Then I discovered that it is the adaptation of a novel inspired by the biblical "Book of Hosea". Thank you very much, but I don't need a faith-based movie to brush up on that text set in the 1850s. Feeling sorry for Famke Janssen and D.J. Caruso.

Have to say on this one have to agree with critics on this one though for different reasons. Although appreciate that the director was trying to show unconditional and unfailing love and that no one is irredeemable the way the movie portrays it is all wrong, definitely not same spirit as original and true Hosea story comes from and honestly feels like a forty shades of gray but with Christian elements, faith, and without the bondage. It goes wayy too intense and thee are some parts that are honestly just icky feeling. Is over the top and not what it could be. I would suggest reading the original story of Hosea and skipping the movie…
