I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

This is a drama about how faith affects ordinary people. Those seeking a depiction on how air brushed air-heads get saved or not by some fantastical entity should perhaps try some specialised channel or You-tube instead. That this drama ends advocating the only way forward is to embrace a lack of faith is an interesting concept and should not be seen as threat to those who currently believe. It is expertly acted by all and there is no requirement for super-duper special effects which ITV ( not BBC folks, this wasn't made by them ) couldn't afford in any case. Having said all that, I did find the ending a bit rushed resulting in a trite and sentimental conclusion.

It was a two-part miniseries, the first half opened with a bang, and maybe even a bit of hope. The second half ended with a whimper and even ends basically with misery! It basically ended up taking us nowhere. Why introduce a 3rd Testament that would disprove the existence of God? The whole thing ends up being just a farce. I was really hoping that they were going to take this somewhere. The pacing is very slow, and sometimes the music seemed off cue. The music makes you feel disoriented. The message of the whole movie is meaningless! I wished that I had watched Hell's Kitchen instead! Gordon Ramsay would've added some substance to this rather bleak ending.

One should have the right to expect from people who make a film about the Second Coming and the Third Testament, that they had read the other two, or at least knew a little more about them than miracles and Judgement Day. This film contains absolutely nothing of relevance for viewers who are interested in Jesus, religion or philosophy -- there is only the standard British social realism with guttural dialects and plump characters in pubs.Actually, good candidates for a real Third Testament have been published several times - like "A Course in Miracles" or "Conversations with God". They all have thought-provoking new twists and angles for Christian faith and theology.The most interesting information in IMDb's rating is not the number of stars, but how many people who have bothered to vote. In four years, only 387 people have bothered to vote for this film. As usual, the enthusiasts are the most eager. For comparison, have a look at "Jesus Christ, Superstar" - original version from 1973.

*****Contains Spoilers*****This is a 2-episode, made-for-TV, movie. The first episode was gripping. The second episode was a bit tedious, although I found the ending satisfying. It isn't for everybody, though, especially if you are any sort of fundamentalist. If you like to think about religion, though, then you should appreciate the the challenges the script presents.As is the case with many stories that encompass the "supernatural", the film is engaging as the miracles take place, while much more difficult to follow and enjoy when the time comes to make sense of all that has come before. The film is somewhat upbeat and inspirational, but that is limited by the atheistic philosophy that is promulgated...
