EJ Moreno with a video review of The Eyes of Tammy Faye…

Jessica Chastain gives a career-best as the over-the-top Tammy Faye Bakker in this camp  new biopic.

Critic EJ Moreno calls The Eyes of Tammy Faye an awards contender but holds nothing back on its formulaic style. Watch EJ’s review of the movie below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

SEE HERE: Read our written review of The Eyes of Tammy Faye

THE EYES OF TAMMY FAYE is an intimate look at the extraordinary rise, fall, and redemption of televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker. In the 1970s and 80s, Tammy Faye and her husband, Jim Bakker, rose from humble beginnings to create the world’s largest religious broadcasting network and theme park and were revered for their message of love, acceptance, and prosperity. Tammy Faye was legendary for her indelible eyelashes, her idiosyncratic singing, and her eagerness to embrace people from all walks of life. However, it wasn’t long before financial improprieties, scheming rivals, and scandal toppled their carefully constructed empire.

The Eyes of Tammy Faye stars Jessica Chastain, Andrew Garfield, Cherry Jones, Fredric Lehne, Louis Cancelmi, Sam Jaeger, Gabriel Olds, Mark Wystrach, and Vincent D’Onofrio.
