Some things I liked some I did not.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It doesn't get much worse than this. I would have turned it off but often a movie is just noise in the corner of my screen as I work on other things on my computer. I am a Christian and I believe in the rapture. I appreciate the effort. But this movie is at the bottom of the heap for a quality project.The acting is atrocious. The dialog is worse than simple. Often directors can save a bad script and push actors in the right direction. Direction didn't help this one at all.About the only good thing I can say about this movie is the boat was great, and it's always good to see jet skis in action. Somebody had money, or access to money to make this film.

In the blink of an eye is a Groundhog Day type of movie, the movie does have a nice twist when the whole Groundhog Day events start happening but the thing is; the events that leads to the beginning of the Groundhog Day marathon was just dull. The movie is an independent Christian movie done by Pure Flix Entertainment, it could have been better but it is still OK, that is if you are judging it in relation to its other independent Christian movies.For those of you who don't know or have not seen Groundhog Day (you need to), here is a slight idea of what the 1993 (directed by Harold Ramis) Bill Murray comedy film is about: The character has to write a wrong, and in the process he gets to relive the same day over and over again, till he corrects that wrong. In the movie (which is a secular movie mind you) the character learns the whole daily routine of everyone and everything around him, and does not seem to worry about death or mishaps because he knows tomorrow is going to be today.Same thing here the lead character had to correct a wrong; at a particular point in time rapture takes place and David (played by David A.R. White, who is onboard a boat on vacation with his wife, his friend and his wife and four other people) seems to be stuck in a moment alone with strangers, rapture happens and his wife and friends are gone, leaving him behind. But when he wakes up the next day he is back in the same day as before, his wife and friends are around. He at first thought it was a dream and didn't care till his wife and friends were taking again leaving him behind.David finally puts two and two together and realizes that he has to fix a problem so that he can go with his family and friends during the rapture, so till David fixed the problem he kept relieving the same day.The movie plot, although the foundation is not original, the movie building on top of the plot is neat, it carries you along, but before we get to the Groundhog Day event, we had to withstand a lot of drag stories and bad acting. The movie is a nice Christian movie, but that is just that about it, it is not spectacular. The message is clear, rapture is coming.www.lagsreviews.com

Husband and wife David A.R. White and Logan White star in this Christian based film which was inspired by Groundhog Day. Like Bill Murray, David A.R. White is trapped in a time warp in which Logan, and friends Lonnie Colon and Anise Fuller keep disappearing. Like Bill Murray it takes him a few times to finally see the meaning of what has happened.White and Colon are cops on a working vacation on a yacht in the Mexican waters of the Pacific. They've just rescued pop singer Jessica Hope from a kidnapper, but her manager seems not quite right to either White or their captain Eric Roberts. When the manager invites them on the yacht as a token of gratitude, both look at it as a chance for some undercover work.But apparently God is working his own plan and the three of them, Colon, Fuller, and Logan White disappear in a flash of light. They're also quite isolated from civilization, but the radio gives indications of some kind of catastrophe.It keeps happening again and again for White like this is all being rerun for his benefit. I'm sure his wife was a fine woman, but I didn't see anything that would indicate she had that kind of juice with God.In The Blink Of An Eye is one of those films that if you are a tried and true believer the flaws in film making and theology just won't matter. Others are inclined to be a bit more skeptical.

I like comments like MickeyFin's where they watch what they obviously believe is fiction, and then they review it as if it were a non-fiction piece. The only thing this could indicate is that their soul is crying out for the concept to be true, but everything else in their being denies it at all cost. It is the equivalent of me watching Spider-Man and then shouting outrage that there is no actual superhero that can crawl on ceilings, and voicing my disgust that some filmmaker subjected me to such a presentation. As far as the question: "Why is there suffering in the world?" The answer has nothing to do with your problems with this movie, but the answer is nevertheless critical for any intellectual and non-intellectual to contemplate. The answer is easy to understand, but only once your mind has evolved past Neanderthal. One of many non-preaching presentations can be found here (found via a quick google search) where some ideas to answer your question are given. http://powertochange.com/discover/faith/worldsuffering/ and I'll add further, if there was no suffering, how would we know what joy was? Certainly, you don't expect everyone to be happy all of the time, do you? If anything, YOU are preaching THAT to all of US. Frankly, I don't care for your anonymous cold call. If you still think that link was too preachy, here is a very clinical discussion about the absolute necessity of suffering that might prove much more palatable. http://www.vmohanty.com/2010/why-is-there-suffering-in-the-world/ Either way, using the existence of suffering as an excuse to deny there's a God is as ludicrous as me using the existence of crime to deny there's no Spider-Man. You may have to read that more than once to fully appreciate the intellectual profundity.
