Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Jesus!Really!A movie by fundamentalists FOR fundamentalists!Written AND directed - god save us from writer/directors! - by a born again C!. Help!!!If you're not a god botherer, walk away now!If you are, well, my sympathies and good luck to you!How the hell(!) this ever got made never mind got released is beyond mortal comprehension - must be an act of god!It involves time travel but that only scrapes it up from a 0!Read the reviews - not the born again rave ratings by people who haven't even had the courtesy to write a review!
I am agnostic, and I was gathering sci-fi movies and grabbed this title without thinking. Only after watching this for a while I started suspecting this was Christian propaganda.I truly enjoyed this movie, it has a good plot line and it is very well acted, for a CP that is. I believe the character and coming from him the propaganda is believable, did not bother me at all. Although would not watch a second CP movie after this, too much is too much XD
This is another movie I just watched on my journey through the best and worst religious cinema.This movie just doesn't make much sense on the message that they were trying to convey.Sure, it makes sense that an extremely religious man from 1890 with only the knowledge of that era and the lack of a proper education would find 2002 pretty messed up.But, this is not a fish out of water comedy, I don't even know what the hell this is, half the movie is just straight up preaching which is not even relevant to the theme of the film.These Christiano brothers need to stop making movies, this was not a movie this was a terribly acted propaganda piece that was a "movie" in name only.I honestly wish I had more to say about this but since it was clearly just cheap attempt to get people to watch a sermon all I can say is f**k this propaganda and f**k everyone involved with it. I will say that the wheelbarrow handles that they tried to pass off as fancy lever handles was pretty funny....... other than that stay away from this garbage.
I know that if you're not Hollywood, that producing a film is expensive, and recruiting talent, hiring coaches, and all the rest that goes into producing a top-notch film requires serious resources.But here is the thing - if you want to win people over to your point of view by using media such as film, it's important to reach - rather than to turn off - your intended audience. And you accomplish this by striving for perfection, and settling for little less.It's likely that with a film based on the premise of time-travel, the producers were hoping to reach a group of people who were at least interested in science fiction. But for time-travel themed science fiction to be effective, the time-traveler must be able to convince the audience that he or she is truly from the time they claim.Unfortunately, all the characters from the past seem incapable of speaking as if they were truly from the later 19th century. The dialog from these people seems to be more of an affected 21st century people attempting to make us believe they are from the 18th century. For me, this was the weakest link in the film. The main characters were anachronistic in any age - they belonged nowhere.I'm not a Christian, but I don't mind spiritual film - so the message of this film does little to inform my critique. This is simply a bad film with poor acting and a thrown-together plot.Also, the dramatic ploy to build urgency at the end - seems a bit childish.
