kbherman God is good all the time; all the time, God is good! Question what happens to you when you die? I believe that I want to be with God! Many of the most intelligent, scientific atheists have tried to prove Jesus did not die and was resurrected, and now they love JEsus and are believers... yay God!!!
smlivingstone-01394 My previous review mentioned that Corbin Bernsen's name was spelled wrong in the opening credits. For that I gave the movie a one star review, but admitted I hadn't finished watching it. Well, now I have.I'm giving it 7 stars to bring my average rating up a bit (I figure that makes it somewhere around 4), because the movie wasn't a total waste of time. It's still unforgivable that one of the stars of the film got his name misspelled in the credits, but there is some value in sticking it out to the end. Yes, it's unoriginal, a bit bland, and the utterly predictable ending arrives suddenly, and is completely unbelievable and not a little eye-rolling. But the acting was above average for this kind of film, and it does serve to remind Christians that, even in a society supposedly founded on biblical principles, it is fast becoming a toxic environment and it now requires an act of courage to publicly admit to their beliefs.Of course not all atheists behave as some of them did in this movie, but you don't have to look far to find ones who do. Christian bashing has become acceptable and even something of a sport. I find it interesting that most of the worst reviews were written by atheists who strongly objected to the portrayal of fellow nonbelievers. They are right to assure us that not all atheists act like hot headed cavemen, but it does make me wonder why so many avowed atheists are even watching such a film as this. What do they expect to get out of it?And that's the thing that makes this film ultimately fail, as do most Christian themed films, unfortunately. They are forever preaching to the choir, and no one ever seems to find the budget - or the chutzpah - to make the kind of unexpected, challenging, eye opening film that really makes thoughtful, questioning, open minded people sit up and take notice. These films are like Christian rock music - too timid and too frightened of giving offense to make themselves in any way memorable. It's too bad.But if you like vanilla movies like this and are part of the choir that likes to be preached to, I can at least say that I've given up on countless yawnfest movies of this genre, and this one I was actually able to watch to the end.
chefdad67 Another outstanding faith-based movie. Stephen Baldwin is an excellent actor who has been in quite a few Christian movies. A lot of times there are Christian movies that have sub-par acting. This is definitely not one of them. I appreciate the story line of the movie as it's something that our culture has endured for decades. Yes, it is a bit predictable in some parts yet it's still a fantastic movie to watch. I liked that they showed the main character as a real person, dealing with raw emotions.If you're a believer in Jesus then you should really enjoy this movie. If you're not a believer, then be prepared to meet Jesus through this movie.
wendyatlanticcanuck Absolute fictitious depiction of atheists. All of the atheists I know, are secular humanists and very caring people. Religion is for church, etc. not for school. School is for education… education of facts, not of ancient mythology, unless a student is in mythology class. A "moment of silence" is not "prayer" or even religious, in any way. The scenario fabricated in this movie has never happened and never will. Learn the law and the constitution of the US and you will understand how everything about this movie was simply wrong! The strawman depiction of atheists is beyond ridiculous! Horrible awful movie… poorly done with terrible acting (if you can call it that).
