"Flywheel: Ignition of a Soul" REVIEW

Published Oct 19, 2026, 5:56 AM

The Kendrick Brothers recreates their first ever film with an all new cast in a larger than imagined vision as they finally are able to do the story justice to reach even more people 20 years later. The film, set in Rio de Janeiro and for the first time is digitally remastered and English dubbed from its Portuguese language. 

Flywheel: Ignition of the Soul is a powerful film where a greedy salesperson makes a life changing decision that ultimately effects all that he does after that moment. That decision is ultimately to accept Jesus and change his ways to be more honest. Like all changes, it’s not easy but with God, Noah manages to trust him and succeed in true Kendrick Brothers style. 

The film stars of course, founder himself Alex Kendrick as well as quite natural actors who seem to come into the story at just the right time and provide a powerful thought provoking moment on screen. 

Those actors include Mario Bregiero who exceptionally portrayed the man named Noah who did a great job going from rouge business man on the verge of losing his family to one that ultimately repents and changes for good. It's the example that many Christians go through for Christ and is exemplified in the powerful performance. Additionally the film stars Adriano Caninde, Perola Faria, Felipe Folgosi and Guilherme Tavares, all of which ultimately make this new version just as impactful as the original.

Flywheel:Ignition of the Soul came out in theaters in the US and Brazil on October 16th and is a powerful addition for anyone who needs to see the power of Christ on the big screen and share it with the world who is in need of that saving grace. Additionally, you can search for the original via Amazon where it is available to rent or buy.
