Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

bkoganbing I'm guessing that the possibility of a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints member being elected president of the United States may have inspired the making of Meet The Mormons. Certainly in 2012 they became more visible than all the missionaries combined ever did with Mitt Romney's presidential candidate.Six Mormon stories from around the globe were told in Meet The Mormons. As this was a public relations film from the LDS church there best foot forward was put out. It was also quite deliberate that non-Caucasians were used. Mormons still have a public relations problem with darker pigmented people.The one that really interested me was the Naval Academy football coach. Who'd have thunk it, but there it is and the film had some footage of a White House banquet where Pacific Islander coach Ken Niumatololo got some kudos from President number 44. The Costa Rican female kick-boxing champion was also interesting.It's a nicely public relations and as always LDS stuff outstrips Christian fundamentalist films by light years.

mrtenglish1 "Meet the Mormons" was originally intended to be shown in Visitor's Centers (which are open to the public) on the campuses of several LDS Temples throughout the world. Church leaders later decided to give the film a theatrical release as well . . . thus the film's appearance on IMDb.The fact that it was originally an "in-house" film from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is important to understand before watching the film. It's a documentary, produced and released officially by the church to help people who are not familiar with the LDS faith or "Mormons" to understand more of what being a Mormon is really like. It also follows six inspiring life stories of Mormons who have overcome personal challenges by exercising their faith in Jesus Christ.My wife and I enjoyed the film very much. The stories are very moving, and the documentary narrative helps you get a picture of what it's like to be a Mormon in various places throughout the world (Latter-day Saints are in a lot more places than just Utah!). It's not the best film ever made, nor does it represent cinema at its most cutting-edge . . . but it wasn't meant to be. The film explores what it means to be human, and what it means to be a disciple and a follower of Christ in a global community.

lemmonheads-685-189371 When I first saw the preview I was really excited and I was the one who got my family interested. When I got to the theater I couldn't wait for it to start. At first, after it had started, I thought it would be very boring. As it went on I realized that it was one of the best movies I had ever seen. I have told a lot of people at school and the seemed interested. Now I would really recommend this to every person in the world. There are 6 families that all share very interesting stories that are also heartfelt. My brother thought that the movie was very interesting. He loves hearing each families story and learning something new about the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I want to thank the church for making this movie appear across the country. Thank you cast members!!!!

B_Bending_Rodriguez This movie is really a commercial based on "heartsell" marketing methods, developed by the LDS Church's media business, Bonneville Communications.This should not be a surprise. For years, the Mormon church has developed commercials and movies designed to show how Mormons are just like everyone else. And I would say that Mormons are similar to the people in the movie. They are nice, they try to do helpful things, they have struggles with their lives. So if you are a non-Mormon (Mormon terms for that are non-member or investigator), you will leave the movie thinking, "gosh! Those people could not have done this without being Mormon! I should join!"What they don't tell you in the movie is the crazy things that Mormons believe. Joseph Smith saw God (well, that's one of four different versions of his story anyway). He translated the Book of Mormon from golden plates! (well, he did that with a rock in a hat, and the plates don't actually exist now) Joseph was a prophet, and there have been prophets to follow him until today - and all of them get direct instruction from God, like in person! Unfortunately God doesn't tell them how to adapt to changing needs until too late, like racism, equal rights, etc. They don't tell you that the temples are where you take part in Masonic rituals (though the death threats were removed back in the 90s).So if you're an investigator, go in with your eyes open, and ready to ask questions when you come out. Because this movie could have been "Meet the Catholics" or "Meet the Baptists" or "Meet the Jehovah's Witnesses" and had the same heart-tugging, uplifting stories. Only Mormons think that the nice things they do are unique in the world. There's no room in Mormon belief for other people to be able to do things that are kind and Christlike.
