Wonderful character development!

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

This feature opens with a fire, hell, and damnation type of interpretation of Revelation and then drops the ball as the rest of the film has absolutely nothing to do with the Book of Revelation. This is rather a pop Christian version designed to sell a film to those who never read and studied the book.Josh (=Jesus) sells vests (=armor of God). He saves a family from a group of evil bikers known as either Outlaws or Barbarians. They have their own heavy metal swagger music, kill people, but never swear. Oh yes, they have something that looks like Thor's hammer. Eric Roberts has a small role in this film. Bruce Marchiano who always plays Jesus in these productions plays a stranger who saves a girl from said bikers. Please Scooby-Doo, tell me who this guy is?This is just the first part of what will surely be a butchered series designed to soak churches for the rights to showing this film. PLOT SPOILER...if there is such a thing...the rapture happens at the end of the film. While the rapture has statements to support it in the Bible, it really isn't part of Revelation. Technically this is a movie about the end times that doesn't follow Revelation in any shape or form, but simply uses it in the title to sell the feature. Dishonest if you ask me.Outside of that, the movie was poorly acted and the dialogue was jerky, like the sign reads, "Guns, Jerky, and More."Parental Guide: No F-bombs, sex, or nudity. Fighting and some killing.

Unwatchable! This movie is absolutely horrible. It was so bad, I couldn't get to the end. Normally, I wouldn't review a film unless I watched it all - no matter how insufferable. But this was just too painful. The acting was horrendous. Not a single person in the movie had any acting ability. There was no real plot. Unless you count the constant preaching, that is. It was nothing more than a preachy public service announcement with some stunts thrown in to convert the masses to Christianity. It was pure crap! And I can not believe there are sequels to this cesspool of crap-fest. I would have preferred going to church than watching another minute.

I created an account just to respond to this movie. I use the work movie loosely.It starts off as a B movie and that's what I expected, then the Christian propaganda starts, slowly building to the climax hitting you like the bad guys hammer!This is a Christian propaganda movie! Period. Don't let the title and plot beguile you into watching it.Nothing subtle about the message here. Was OK until and tolerable until the climax..... don't bother wasting time unless you are a devout Christian. I truly wish the MPAA had a religious rating for this movie.

This is a film that many people seem to be putting down in a big way.....personally i really don't know why!! From start to finish it keeps you thinking, it twists and turns, the story constantly adding intrigue and wonder. Yes, okay, there are Christian overtones, but why is that deemed as bad?? Are we saying that films with Christian overtones are bad? The acting is fine,Ray Wise puts in his usual fine performance....on the other side of the fence from his previous role in "Reaper"! I initially found myself comparing this to Stephen King's "The Stand", i don't know why as it's quite different and deserves it's own space Like any movie, like any story, we all have our opinions, and we are all entitled to make up our own minds. I say to everyone, do just that....make up your own mind. Apparently there's going to be a part 2....i'm looking forward to it
