Such a frustrating disappointment

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Like many other movies and miniseries about this topic, this work is horrifically bad. It was poorly written, acted, and produced. It is almost laughable how awful this thing is. This is worse than some of the bad science fiction movies that I watch for kicks. It sticks to a convoluted interpretation of the Christian apocalypse that opportunists like Kirk Cameron, Jerry B. Jenkins, and Tim LaHaye have used to line their pockets for years, but the overused plot not even the worst aspect of this thing.The shaky camera style is reminiscent of The Blair Witch Project, which fits well with the other poorly executed parts of the miniseries. If you are prone to vertigo, migraines, seizures, or motion sickness, especially if these have been triggered in the past by past movies or television shows, you might want to avoid this for health reasons. If not, just avoid it for quality reasons. It's not entertaining enough to justify wasting so much time on it.

The first half was good. I like disaster movies and I'm a Christian so this was right up my alley. We don't know how the events of the end times will unfold, but I believe this show did a fairly decent job in portraying a possibility. The second half, though, was way off the mark. Unlike the beginning that centers on Isreal and all the horrors going on there, the second half is totally American-centric. The battle of Armegedon will be for Isreal, not America. Yes America, along with the rest of the world, will suffer the effects of the tribulation, but we won't be the center of it. Also, when Jesus returns, every eye will see Him (Rev 1.7), and I don't mean a strange weather phenomenon. The Antichrist doesn't just die mysteriously either. He is cast into the pit along with the false prophet, who is not in the film. Again, if you like disaster movies, the first half was plausible but skip the second half. If you want to find out more about the Antichrist, read your Bible. I also recommend looking up the author Joel Richardson who, I think, has a pretty good grasp on things.

This seems like it was purposely produced to warn us of what is coming. You will find that Christians are the worst critics of it. "It got this wrong, it got that wrong," etc. The majority of Christians today are in false churches and are obsessed with SELF. They consider themselves all knowing and all seeing when in fact they are enabling the coming of the Antichrist. This movie wasn't perfect - the ending for instance was a huge letdown, but hey it was just the last five minutes of the film. Everything else concerning the portrayed events is really already going on in one form or another. The persecution of Christians in America is well on it's way; we have a tyrannical president who promised hope and delivered hell; the military buildup with weapons returning from war in the Middle East is already happening. Also loved how they interpreted the booms and trumpet noises as being harbingers of the last days - something that is really going on and in the news everyday and many of believe they ARE signs. They used real footage of actual events throughout the movie - even getting in the house-to-house raids in Boston after the bombing. Maybe all the so-called Christian critics didn't recognize that much footage was taken from real life. They were too busy hating.The whole idea of government created pandemics, disposing of the elderly and infirmed - that's already here too, though not on the mass scale portrayed in the movie -- but we're getting there. This movie was awesome! Yes I hated the shaky camera "Blair Witch Project" cinematography, but maybe - just maybe - that will be the appeal to the younger people who live as quickly and shakily as the camera angles in this digital age. It's coming folks; and regardless of who tries to pick apart the scripture presented in the movie - most of it was pretty accurate. They left out the false prophet and the Pope etc., but hey - it wasn't perfect. It was, however, a prophetic warning delivered to the people to wake them up. Let's hope it will get through to some people and the the Christians don't ruin it for everyone or impede other's salvation by continually dissing this movie.And by the way, people who have not watched an entire movie should not, IMHO, write a review. That's like turning in your book report after the first chapter.

I don't know who thought it would be a good idea to do a story on Revelation without ever reading the Bible but that's what we've got here. Someone picked up a Bible and ripped a few verses screaming and bleeding out of context and tried to weave a humanistic interpretation of how Revelations should be told. The "anti-Christ" supposedly kills himself or is shot by his own forces and "Jesus" supposedly returns in some unseen way and doesn't even show Himself, let alone stay and set up His millennial kingdom. In the end we're left to believe that "man" starts to make things better, slowly, for himself. It's the same pure humanistic, anti-God drivel that I've come to expect from these channels. Four wasted hours of my life that I'll never get back... what a joke, and truly sad for a World that deserves to know the truth of Jesus' return at the end of days!
