Summary: awsome story and message
Review: Even if you're not a Christian, this movie is so entertaining and has an incredible story. I'm going to have to read the books now. They did a great job tying in the prophecies of Revalations with world affairs, (ie the unification of currency.) It gets even better in the second movie. Also: THEY GOT THE PERFECT ACTOR TO PLAY THE ANTICHRIST! This dude plays the role to a tee.

Summary: Far short of the excitement of the book
Review: I'm glad Blockbuster Video had a offer of trading you used DVD for a new release. This flim falls far shor t of the action,excitement and character development of the book. If you are a fan of the Left Behind series, skip this movie.

Summary: Oh Please!
Review: I watched this movie last night and was not surprised of its content. The first point that must be made is that the only scriptural information in the movie is that Jesus is our salvation. But concerning the eschatology of the movie, there was NO biblical accuracy. It was sensationalism, making for great fiction, but it had no biblical support. As a radio announcer once said, it's fine if you want to read (watch) something like, say, Buck Rogers. But I think it needs to be changed to Star Wars (see below).I highly recommend that before one falls for the teaching of these and subsequent movies, and for any of the teaching of the books, and other movies and books by other authors that present the same basic eisegeted interpretation, that they read something like "Last Days Madness" by Gary Demar. Finally, how amused I was to find Star Wars in the movie. That's right. Nicolae stands in a meeting at the UN, and being the antichrist (which in the Bible is not a specific person and is not the man of sin), and he murders two people. Then, twice at least, he speaks to the group and waves his hand while he speaks. Everyone (except for the one believer there, the Christian Jedi if you will), starts thinking what he says, not realizing that he inserted his thoughts into their minds and removed the truth from them. And so I thought back to Star Wars in the 70's, when Obiwan waves his hand at the Imperial guards and does the exact same thing. For those who realize the total fallacy of this movie and the related books, stand firm. For those who have bought into it, take off the blinders and do some more study from alternate views. If you remain a "Left Behind" theologian, either after studying or because you refuse to consider something besides the teaching of the Left Behind magesterium, then may the Force be with you.

Summary: Left Behind...Witness Tool
Review: I cannot believe that so-called CHRISTIANS would bash this great witness tool. My belief is that most of them are so caught up in the world's economy that they can't see the trees for the forest. This is a great movie that has a timeless message for the lost and also the saved. I have used this movie to introduce several of my friends to prophecy, which in turn, planted the neccessary seed for salvation in their lives. It hurts me to see the kibitzing that is going on with this movie. I am approaching this review on these grounds: WAKE UP, BROTHER, YOU'VE BEEN SET FREE!!!

Summary: Better than expected
Review: People who have panned this movie have obviously missed the point. A Christian movie WILL have to compensate for less funding than a mainstream Hollywood movie. Of course it is going to look more like a TV movie than, say, Armageddon. The producers don't have 120 million dollars. What they do have, however, is a compelling story with a heartfelt message. I enjoyed this movie a lot and was able to overlook the few noticeable "low-budget" moments. Instead, I easily focused on the story. Smarter viewers will be able to understand that every film can't be given a blockbuster budget.

Summary: Just go Read the Bible
Review: This movie was utterly horrendous. The acting was atrocious and the story was very contrived. The only good part was when the antichrist killed a man during a meeting and made it look like someone else did it. That was ok (although it was shown horribly). As I said above...go read the actually BOOK this stuff is based on. Not the horrible thought out Left Behing Bookseries...but the BIBLE! You'll get much more information and a better idea of what happens. But I do want to congratulate the gentlemen for trying. PS: Was the actress who played Chloe the same as that one girl from the Faculty who took off her clothes? Naughty naughty.

Summary: Way beyond ideological badness
Review: The very notion of a Christian movie is nonsensical (movies as a medium is far too realistic for this kind of crap), but Left Behind is way beyond ideological badness. It is as bad as a made-for-TV-style movie about Revelations can be. How can I talk about this movie without laughing... OK see, Kirk Cameron (LOL) plays a brave and upstanding journalist called 'Buck' Williams, who is a bit slow on the uptake... since he has no idea he's in a Revelations movie until we're about 3/4 down the movie (LOL) In his bid to understand why millions of people have dissapeared from the surface of the Earth - which is explained by our nice Russian bad guy as "radiation poisoning" (LOL) - he teams up with an airline pilot called Rayford Steele (LOL) and... there are secret disquettes, mind-control, lots of praying, bad guys... Forget it, I can't do it. Just see the movie. Let's just say there is no chance that "Christian movies" will become a new genre. Battlefield Earth was better than this !

Summary: A warning that will be unheeded
Review: A non-Christian will wonder what this is all about. I knew what was going on, being a Christian, but it isn't compelling enough to convince anyone else. I tried watching this a while ago before I found God, but gave up after a half hour. The production was basic. It needs more oompf for attention getting.

Summary: Doesn't do justice to the book
Review: I was very excited when i bought this dvd, for I enjoyed the book so much. I had just finished the book yesterday, and I even wrote an in-class essay on the significance of the title to the book. Every detail of the book was and still is fresh in my mind.If you want a plot summary of the book or movie, which indeed are slightly different, check out another person's review. Yet I'm going to tell you how I thought the movie hadn't done the book justice. - Compressing the 468 pg. novel into a 95 minute movie chopps off MUCH of the story line off
- Characters met under different circumstances that detracted from the experience
- Rayford Steele's acting was subpar
- Plot was insanely wrong
- Buck a tv reporter? enough said pros
- a nice watch if you can't get enough of Left Behind In conclusion, only watch this movie AFTER you've read the book. Yet, still worth watching...I guess.
