Reception

The Mediavalists reviewed the film, stating: "Soldier of God is a relatively low budget production, but it doesn’t come across as cheap, or suffer as a result of its financial limitations. Most of the actors in this movie aren’t well known in terms of Hollywood star-power, but that’s irrelevant; the acting is solid and engaging." [5]
