You won't be disappointed!
People are voting emotionally.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
So if that is going to bother you, than just see something else. For the rest of you still here its a pretty good movie. It even had me thinking the next day. Yes, I am thinking person. Did you know there are smart people that believe in Jesus and God? I guess a most reviewers would like you to think otherwise.Anyways, I just started seeing these Christian David A. R. White movies and they are quite refreshing, they may have some bits that are little heavy handed, but for the most part its a solid movie. And for those that believe or don't have a prejudice against believer movies you will enjoy yourself. I even got teary eyed a couple of times and was on the edge of my seat at the end (I don't want to give it away).
The acting was appalling the continuity laughable, the story line confusing, incoherent, the ending predictable. Each actor seemed capable of so much more, I wonder if the script had anything to do with it. Regrettably the characters were wooden, two dimensional with absolutely no chemistry between them.I do agree with a previous reviewer that perhaps we SHOULD have a genre for religious or Christianity, whatever! Those who read the genre can knock themselves out with it. If I want to be lectured to, I'll go to church.If I sound angry, I am! I feel the victim of a bait and switch, New genre please!
For all who know the story there can be no spoilers. I don't write reviews but a few and far between, but I could not let that last review stand without saying something. How few movies are made about Christ and God's plan and out of those few are backed by a Hollywood budget. So speaking for myself I am thankful for all of the Christian films made that is not filled with nudity and swearing so bad i feel sick just being in the room where it is being played. The actors in this movie including Eric Roberts have been in other Christian movies of similar story lines like The Moment After (I & II), Six, and others. If you want to watch a movie that has a plot about the coming of Christ, here is another one I will add to my collection. I hope they continue to make more. If this movie makes you angry enough to write a bad review maybe there is another reason you are upset, like it might have hit close to home, knocked on a door you are avoiding opening. Open that door you won't be disappointed.
Overall the movie was quite slick. It presented a message in a nice and creative manner. The acting was first quality, as well the scenery and props were neat! Suggested that anyone who takes the time to check out this movie,expect a good storyline and entertainment with a message well worth the time. Not a bunch of blood and guts...just a good storyline and message. Most of the entertaining points of the movie take place in and around the water and nice beach locations. The photography work, which happens to be one of my specialties was very good. I would not classify this movie as a "thriller" but more like a mystery that keeps you guessing in a good way. My wife also likes the fact that the movie was entertaining and suitable for all ages.
