Summary: Best Movie this year
Review: Out of all the movies I've seen this year I think this was the most powerful, no matter what the critics say I'm recommending this film to everyone. It's the kind of movie that as soon as it's over you can't wait to watch it again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Of My Favorites
Review: I just saw Left Behind in the theaters yesterday, and let me tell you, it was one of the best movies I have ever seen. I thought the book was great, but seeing the characters actually come to life was awesome. Most of the acting was good, especially the character of Nicolae Carpathia, the Antichrist. Whether or not you are a Christian, you should definitely see this movie. I hope more will be made, for the rest of the books: The Tribulation Force, Nicolae, and all the others.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good depiction of the book
Review: Left Behind depicts the Rapture, as described in Revelation, set in modern times. The main characters are Buck Williams, a television reporter and Rayford Steele, an airline pilot. While they are on the job, millions disappear from the Earth. Every possible explanation is explored until gradually people realize that this is the event which is foretold in the Bible. Rayford mourns the loss of his wife and son and eventually sees that their faith is what separates them from him. Nicolae Carpathia is introduced and we see his coversion from good-guy head of the UN, an encourager of peace, to a maniacal killer and power seeker. We also see Buck and Rayford's conversion from Christianity which is shown in a believable way. This is reputed to be a low budget film which may explain the lack of a lot of special effects. This only adds to the realism of the film. Christians applaud the making of such a film and hope that it will be well supported in the theaters.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Filmmaking at its worse
Review: This is one of the most boring, poorly made films that I have ever seen. If it were not for the Christian right, this film would not be playing in theaters. Indeed, it is even too bad for television! A classic case of Christians trying to convert everybody, I doubt that this movie will even appeal to diehard Christian sci-fi fans. Bad acting, bad cinematography, bad everything. Avoid like the plaque!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: AWESOME MOVIE, IN THEATRES FEBRUARY 2ND!
Review: THis movie is not as good as the books, but it is worth seeing. Make sure you see it in theatres to show Hollywood that Christian films are necessary.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great-not just a movie, but something that will happen.
Review: Left Behind: The Movie is great. It gives true, TRUE prophecy from the Bible and puts it in Modern Day terms. Kirk Cameron did an excellent job. Go out and buy it or see it as soon as you can.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Left Behind, the movie
Review: I have NOT yet seen the movie; but, have read your reviews, and, eagerly(I think!!) await the appearance of the series in movie form (which is supposed to open on February 2). The books are riveting...I am fascinated by the total opposites in view (by your reviewers, thus far), regarding the film. However, if it DOES come to my area on the big screen, I shall watch it, although I CANNOT IMAGINE Kirk Cameron, as Buck...WHO cast this movie..and, did they READ the books???

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST SEE IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT BE LEFT BEHIND
Review: I have just begun reading the Left Behind book series and recently viewed a copy of Left Behind: The Movie. May I say that Christian or not, this is a very entertaining film. The special effects are spectacular and the acting is realistic. The movie has some cool music soundtracks and some scenes almost made me cry from emotion. The movie also has some cool camera shots and creative dialogue twists that kept me interested and involved during the movie. I thought it was more realistic than an average Hollywood production because it visited different countries like Israel and Jerusalem and made me more aware of the possible uses of the United Nations. Left Behind is the action-drama that every Christian/Non-Christian should watch if they have any doubt of whether they will or won't be Left Behind!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: GREAT MOVIE, BUT NOT LIKE THE BOOK....:(
Review: I love the movie cuz it is the basic story of the Left Behind novel series by Time LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. But It sstrays far from the movie in a few areas.

First off, if you read the book, the scene where Nicolae Carpathia does his devious deed (I'm wont give away anything)...the movie took away a few parts and even CHANGED a few!! There was a lot taken out. One good thing about it is that the movie will give you a good look at what the people look like for your mental picture as you read the book. I suggest that you watch the movie, then read the book.

Second, One of the main part of the book, the part where Rayford talks to Hattie in a mall-resturaunt kinda place about his thoughts for her (sinful thoughts), well that was taken out. cuz that happens 1/2 way through the book. Chloe doen't even meet "Buck" until then. It was a rather comical scene in the book. Why they took it out is beyond me.

One GOOD thing (There are ALOT of good things about the movie) is that the characters act like they do in the book, which is a big PLUS...:)

Other than that, it is a good movie if you are a Left Behind fan. Even though alot was taken out and changed, I suggest buying it! :)

Summary: Mind bogglingly awful
Review: This movie is without doubt one of the worst I have ever seen. The acting was wooden, the editing woeful, and the incidental music laughable. It all made sense when I realised I was watching a christian movie.
