Load of rubbish!!
Let's be realistic.
Fantastic!
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
View MoreThis film is for OPEN MINDED people, those who really do question why things happen, coupled with the understanding that 'We are not alone.", that the physical world is not all there is to 'life'.What amazed me about the story line is that it provided a 'real world' example of how people who believe themselves to be 'open minded', but very secular minded politically, however also believing in a general form of 'spirituality', end up experiencing things that a 'generic spirituality' cannot explain.These folks usually believe that ANY spirituality is a good thing, so long as Jesus is not mentioned, or the Bible, unless comments about either are in some form derogatory.This film asks many questions of such people, and the answers are not comforting to them; because the film proves that by worldly standards, it is 'ok' to hate people who follow Jesus.The fine script writing does this without mentioning Jesus, or the Bible, even once: the writers did it by noting books and beliefs CONTRARY to biblical Christianity, and emphasized the popular mindset of 'believe in anything, because 'whatever' you believe, it will be right for you'.Acting is really good, foreshadowing is good, CGI (Computer Graphics) is superb, and all of it fits together nicely.This film won't make Atheists happy, nor will it put a smile on Social Progressives faces, or the faces of other anti-biblical Christian folks. However, IF you've got an open mind, enough to give what the Bible has to say a chance, the SAME chance as any other religious text, then this film is for you.Should you be just another anti-Jesus zealot, this film will NOT please you.Cheers.
View MoreThis is a great Christian-led movie for the whole family to enjoy. It conveys a deep message and open viewers' eyes to the spiritual world. Unfortunately, Christian related activities (i.e. music, videos, etc.) are no longer popular publicly. Since new campaigns have been endorsed to terminate Christianity and bring rise to the co-existence of all religions, Christian events may no longer be exhibited or promoted at large-- as it may be offensive to other cultural backgrounds and religious affiliations. Having said that, Christianity must now find a new way to captivate the eyes and ears of all peoples -- especially those who are not believers. What I like the most about this movie is that it wisely describes Christianity in a subtle way. One may not hear the word, "Jesus," but he or she will surely hear: "The blood, the tree of life, the bleeding tree" -- symbolism conveying "Christ." All in all, I love this film and would love to see more movies like it.
View MoreSometimes the truth is black and white. This movie is entertaining and has some really good special effects but there are some real flaws that hamper it. If you understand this was written from a fundamentalist Christian viewpoint you can forgive its narrow view of reality and enjoy the movie for the angel battle scenes alone. I thought the actors were competent and entertaining too.However, the author presents the practice of divination as evil and a gateway to other evils. Many non-fundamentalist families, students of history and the occult would disagree with this narrow and fear-dominated approach to understanding man's interest in and practice of actual divination. I'm sure the author imagines the people who watch this movie will be Christians and who better to deceive with his paranoia about other systems of spirituality. I agree with the author that fear can be very damaging, but beyond that, the movie bases its premise on the uneducated fundamentalist Christian world-view. As usual, fundamentalist Christians see no other path but their own and fear everything else.
View MoreMy wife and I didn't make it more than halfway through. Terrible lighting, one actress' face is a solid shadow while the other has a shiny glare on her forehead! Atrocious acting; telegraphing lines, stiff movement, awkward pauses, etc. Some of the CGI was sub par, but most was brilliant. The plot was thin, a worn out story told to death... I just can't find much to say about this film that's positive. Not even one of the characters made you feel any sort of empathy. It's tough to identify with a character who is wooden and unnatural. The first half of the movie seems bent on pushing the message that all couples must breed. I understand this is a faith based film, but come on! Why push this agenda in a film made for entertainment!In summary, Don't waste your time on this one!
