Last Ounce of Courage attempts to tell a story about a community taking back Christmas and other Republican values.
The first thing you'll notice is the lack of detail to the story, characters, and basically everything that isn't a Christian talking point. In this story the Christian protagonists have been oppressed because just about everything religious has been banned. Fortunately for this community of Christians, this ban was never even a law! All this time they were abiding by these stupid bans, and now that they realize the bans have no merit, nothing will get in their way! How convenient.
And who better to take on this ill-founded ban than a wholesome American patriot riding a motorcycle painted as a bald eagle with a giant American flag attached to the back and a Jesus Saves vest. He even uses an American flag as a dust cover. If that's not enough, he's the mayor, ex-military and has a medal of honor! These pseudo-bans on religion pose no match to this newly-acknowledged super patriot!
Last Ounce of Courage does pay attention to detail, albeit in a way that's painfully Christian. For example, the family is watching an old home video of their deceased soldier son, and the only thing they have to say is "Oh THAT'S the bible he decided to take with him." They actually use the reality of dead soldiers to fuel the fire of their oppressed fantasy world.
This movie does everything short of telling you to vote against the man resembling the outrageously stupid black antagonist. If you want a story about losing Christmas and getting it back again watch the original Grinch Who Stole Christmas.
The CGI was terrible too.
