Summary: CLOUD TEN DOES IT AGAIN!
Review: "Deceived" mixes an intense sci-fi/psychological thriller with faith and greed to become another success story for Cloud Ten Pictures. The production levels and acting levels continue to get better and better with each film. "Left Behind 2: Tribulation Force" promises to be the best yet, but this one will get you in the mood for what's to come! Great movie! Great DVD too! Movie Grade: A+; DVD Grade: A+

Summary: Very Deceiving!
Review: Boring;little action in plot. Very diluted;few references to the Bible. Felt more like I was watching one of those awfully boring Sunday afternoon movies than a Christian movie with Biblical content. Not edifying a bit! I regret having purchased such a thing!

Summary: Christian sci-fi? You better believe it!!
Review: Cloud Ten pictures try their hand at Sci-fi with "Deceived" and they don't do a bad job of it. It stars Judd Nelson, Louis Gossett Jnr and others.

A group of experts are called in to investigate a message of unknown origin thought to eminate from space. The writers give us an interesting and thought provoking story as well as making it quite thrilling.

SPOILER ALERT!! Compare it if you will to the movie "Contact" where "aliens" make contact with us. The question asked here is how do we know where these messages really come from and what happens if the "aliens" are in fact evil spirits.

All in all, an interesting film with good performances by it's lead actors. Watch this if you are interested in aliens and the like and if you like to think.

Thanks.

Summary: Wonderful acting, intriguing characters, but convoluted plot
Review: Gifted actors offered us interesting characters and thought-provoking dialogue. However, the story itself attempted to do too much. The effort to blend science fiction with the notion that E.T. may be a malevolent--even spiritual force proved difficult. The approach was subtle, yet some of the dialogue came accross as canned, or even thinly veiled speech-making. Additionally, the producers attempted to "plant" so many little spiritual messages, that the final product was a bit disjointed.

The bottom-line is that much talent went into this film, but it became more complicated than compelling.

Summary: Surprisingly Good
Review: I was pleasantly surprised by this DVD. I was expecting a low budget, poorly made film but what I saw was a well acted, believable premise that entertained me completely. Judd Nelson is very believable as the skeptic. In fact, he makes the film. I've always liked Nelson as an actor and in this film his talents show. Even though this is a low budget effort the finished product is quality.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Poorly Done
Review: Mixing themes is hard. This movie misses the mark entirely by trying to be the sort of "Christian Sci-Fi" fobbed off on the masses that one sees far too often lately, like the godawful Omega Code or Left Behind. In a word, garbage of the worst sort with horrible acting, writing, and directing - at least it is a triple threat of sorts. :)
