Left Behind - The Movie

Pros: Exciting, timely, good action. Characters grow on you.
Cons: Ended too quickly.

Years ago, I had a dream. An awful dream. In that dream, I was standing on the shore of a huge lake, on the order of Lake Michigan. My late husband, Howard, was with me, as was my son, Greg. I was barefoot, wading in the water when I heard a loud...

Pros: Very interesting and thought provoking film.
Cons: Leaves a lot of the details provided by the book out.

I am just beginning to read the book Left Behind, but my husband actually finished reading it about 3 weeks ago. Immediately he wanted to see the movie and went about getting the DVD. When he brought the DVD and popped it in the DVD player, I said,...

Pros: Apparently, it's Biblically accurate from an Evangelical standpoint
Cons: Derivative, TV movie quality, Kirk Cameron stars

You have to give credit to our fundamentalist Christian buddies for successfully creating their own little subculture within American society. They have their own TV networks, radio stations, and evangelical-approved music of almost every genre...even...

Pros: Good story, plot, acting, witness
Cons: Leaves you hanging at the end...I guess this is for a sequel

This is one movie that non-christians will be lost in, until the very end when it all comes together and Kirk Cameron finally figures it out.

If you don't know anything about this movie and don't know what to expect, you are in for a huge...

Pros: I'm going to stretch here and say "Basic concept."
Cons: Acting, Plot, Character (or lack thereof), Subtle Paulist message, Hateful divisiveness indicative of Paulists

First off, I want to write that my title went through about 1,000 different permutations before I settled on the ironic and hopefully humorous (yet equally honest) title I chose. Runners up for my title were: "Why Should 'Christians' Care About Those ...

Pros: Interesting, great graphics and scene work.
Cons: could have been a bit more detailed for those who don't know the bible.

I guess I am a 'Janet' of all trades here at Epinions. I have written on topics from movies to music then on to toys and medicine. I guess when you want a variety of opinions you can look my way.

Well, I have written about the book so now it...

Pros: fast-paced, interesting, well-cast-characters, believable, music-theme enjoyable (when played), better than book(stating-the-obvious-or-tedious=detail)
Cons: beginning hokey(gets better), book easier to follow and less confusing at first.

NOTE: PAX Television Network has decided to run a LEFT BEHIND television series starting mid season 2001-2002.

For some reason, the show never materialized over the 2002 season. It could be due to a lawsuit filed against the...

Pros: interesting plot, supsenseful, great actor, a powerful message
Cons: may be too religious for some, a couple of slow spots, I was confused in the beginning

My mother had bought this movie and wanted me to see it. I hadn't really heard anything at all about it before so I came home with the video not knowing exactly what to expect.

This movie by cloud ten pictures is based on the best selling...

Pros: acting, soundtrack, story line
Cons: book was better

I received the original Left Behind book as a graduation gift last year, since then I have become addicted to the series. I heard of the movie and couldn't wait to view it. I got it as a Christmas present and went straight to my TV to watch it.
...

Pros: Watch it to confirm Christian faith
Cons: bad plot, bad acting

Left Behind was made in 2000 and released on Feb, 2001. It was released earlier on the DVD, then go to movie theater. It's kind of Christian type of movie about the apocalypse before the end time. This movie is more realistic then "The Omen" and many...

Pros: it will not lose your interest
Cons: none

Yes, this is called a Christian Fiction movie. If you are not a Christian you will still enjoy this movie if you like suspense movies, or actions movies. The reason this movies is called fiction is because it is based a book call Left Behind, that is...

Pros: Good storyline, lots of action and drama
Cons: None

Being a huge fan of the Left Behind series I couldn't wait to get the video when it was released.

For those of you who haven't read the book here is a short description of characters and synopsis of the story.
Main characters are as...

Pros: Good message without being overly preachy
Cons: Plot details hard to swallow

Left Behind is one of many new Christian (for lack of a more specific term) movies that have gone straight to video. I am not sure I understand the marketing strategy of trying to get people to see a movie on video, then go see it in the theater...

Pros: Strong presentation of a worthy message. Well acted and produced.
Cons: Kirk Cameron was the only actor/actress I recognized from other work.

Here it is, a few days after Halloween, and I felt disappointed. I had watched horror movie after horror movie trying to "scare" up a good time and none of them frightened me. Already seen too many I guess.

So tonight I bought Left...

Pros: Plot, emotional and spiritual investment of actors, direction, detail to sets
Cons: I would have liked to see more creativity from the Director of Photography

Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near. Revelation 1:3 (NIV)

Left Behind is a movie of prophecy, atypical for...
