I saw the movie and it's possibly the worst movie I've seen in my life which is sad because I like James Remar and Bruce Davison. I think they're good actors. Not the best out there but they're decent. What I got was one of the most unrealistic, disjointed movies I've ever had the misfortune of seeing. Nothing here makes any sense. A Senator, played by Davison, wants to introduce a bill that will limit the Freedom of Speech of Christians. Not anybody else, just Christians and they will be unable to say that they know "the truth". Forget for a moment that such a thing could never happen due to the First Amendment. This is a fantasy movie after all. But we have James Remar as an evangelist who opposes this and Bruce Davison then frames him with the rape and murder of a teenage girl in order to silence him.What proceeds is really... incomprehensible. I tried to understand the motivations beyond just, "Christian good, non-Christian bad" but that's all I was able to get from it.If you're a die hard right wing Christian fundamentalist then this is right up your alley. It's a good VS evil story that plays right into your paranoia. This movie was literally made for you.If you're anybody else, I'd give this a pass.

View MoreI watched the movie and was shocked that the "bad guy" is a senator that is trying to legislate a bill that guarantees religious freedom and tolerance.The "good guy" on the other end is a preacher that is against religious freedom and states that only Christian faith is acceptable. This is really really not up to democratic and modern standards. This is purely a Christian propaganda film that is supporting intolerance. I do not know how anything like this is even made in the twenty-first century.This is the worst movie I have seen in years.

It uses government cover-ups which may seem a stretch at times, but then again with today's politics gets closer to reality then I think we would like to believe. However it did expose a side that is largely ignored by the media and maybe society in general. The movie exposes that it seems that people of all religious faiths are accepted unless it is the Christian faith, which seems to the politically correct faith to go against these days. I felt that what was portrayed in the movie was actually quite realistic and possible. I only would have liked to have seen the theme carried a bit further, but then again maybe real life doesn't always have happy endings? I look forward to a equal. I realize that there is a bit of a moral, and possibly pro-Christian message and I can't help but wonder if that is the reason for some of the negative reviews? (that itself would fall into the same premise exposed in the film!) I tried to be objective in my viewing of it and would say the theme was great as well as the acting. It just didn't carry it far enough and left me feeling like there should be more time spent telling more of the story - this the need for a sequel.
... View MoreGreat thriller! Very truthful depiction of corruption from top to bottom! Great cast! I expect non-conservatives not to like it because of true story line of what is happening in the country right now, and what will happen even more in the future. This is a movie about freedom of speech and fight for it. It is also a movie about faith and how to keep and protect it even from friends. About how Judeo-Christian faith is different from all others, and for the ones who are not educated on Book of Revelation, it's not even making sense to be persecuted for what the hero is trying to protect the country from. It is about how somebody who gets out of mainstream mentality, can get in trouble looking like a criminal. About how those who are criminals can have power to discredit those who are not with them
