Jesus Revolution director Jon Erwin has become the first director in film history to receive four A+ CinemaScore ratings.
CinemaScore, which was established in 1978, lead the movie industry to measures appealed by polling movie audience at the opening ceremony, as they intend to close the bridge from movie critics and moviegoers.
Erwin previously notched A+ CinemaScores for Woodlawn (2015), I Can Only Imagine(2018) and American Underdog(2021). He co-directed all three with his brother, Andrew Erwin.
Jon Erwin’s latest film, Jesus Revolution, an A+. He has received a total of four A+ CinemaScore, making him the first director to do so.
Only three directors in filmmaking history have earned three A+ CinemaScores: Alex Kendrick for Overcomer (2019), War Room(2015) and Courageous (2011); Rob Reiner for The Princess Bride (1987), When Harry Met Sally (1989) and A Few Good Men(1992); and Andrew Erwin.
Harold Mintz, CinemaScores President, commended Jon for an outstanding work. “Jon Erwin has now achieved four A+ CinemaScores, more than any other filmmaker since we have been compiling data. For a director to achieve that accomplishment once is a rarity. But to hit that mark four times is not only an incredible distinction – it’s unprecedented. Congratulations to Jon and Brent McCorkle and the entire team at Kingdom Story Company.”
Erwin, speaking to Christian Headlines said he became interested in the Jesus Revolution story while standing on the set of Woodlawnin 2014
“That’s where I first held that Jesus Revolution Time Magazine(from 1971), written five years after the first cover(from 1966) with no pictures asked, ‘Is God Dead?’ … I’ve been passionate about that story ever since,” Erwin told Christian Headlines.
