Left Behind: World at War Trailers

A year and a half ago the world was hit with the biggest catastrophe it had ever seen. Without warning and without explanation, hundreds of millions of people simply vanished off the face of the earth. The world was in chaos like it had never been before. Yet somehow one man seemed to rise to the challenge. One man had the strength and conviction to unite a shattered world. One man gave the world hope. That man was NICOLAE CARPATHIA. He now rules the entire world.

Hello,I did enjoy this movie. It was good to see another part to the first two. I never did agreed with the idea that if a person is good on earth, faithful to his beliefs, and is god fearing he would be left behind, just because he was of another religion. I follow the movies and loved the idea that god does love all of us. I do believe that Jesus was the son of god. However I also believe that I am also the son of god.I also believe that you reading this are the son or daughter of god. I also believe that the guy maintaining this website at 3 am in the morning is also the child of god.In short I do not believe that Jesus, was the only child of god. That he died for his beliefs that all men are brothers, oh yes. That he died for his beliefs that god is in every man, oh yes. That he died because a wanted peace on earth and good will toward man, Oh SH** (Self-Censored) heck yes. I was disappointed in the ending of the movie, but I guess that is what sequels are made of. To all my fellow non-Christens out there I say watch the movie, hold true to your beliefs and be kind when you can, and you will see the kingdom of heaven. GOD Bless and good night

After watching this movie, I felt an obligation to warn people of it's true nature. It is not an "Action/War/Thriller" genre movie as it is marked in several movie renting facilities. This is simply religious propaganda, Christian propaganda, in this case (driven to almost the point of fanatics). And a really bad one at that.Instead of following the footsteps of other religious films, giving people material to think about, facts about this or that religion, this movie basically has the characters in the middle of World War 3 (started by none other than the anti-Christ himself), praying.An unknown biological-weapon contagious disease at lose? No problem, let's walk among the infected and pray with them, we don't need biohazard suits or vaccines for the lord is with us... World War 3 just started, shall we proceed to the nearest bomb shelter or find a safe spot? Nay, let's hold hands and pray.This movie could possibly be enjoyed by the people who feel the need to have a capital letter every time they refer to a religious character such as He, His etc... (or you could end up offended by it as well)All others who are not interested in watching a bad Christian propaganda film should look elsewhere. The acting is nothing special, the special effects are pretty outdated (and are few and far between), the story is fantasy, where no one responds to the presented situations as a normal human being would. No distinct musical score, and looped sound effects (at the burning white house you hear the same helicopter pass 3 times).All this put together, it makes for one "hell" of a bad movie. Pardon the pun!

I first read about the Left Behind series a few months ago and made a mental note to check it out since I have an interest in the way religion is used to control people in our ever more hate filled world, so imagine my surprise and joy when I found a copy of Left Behind : World at War in my local library, nestling innocently among the big budget action movies.Now as a movie it's extremely poor. The acting is straight out of an elementary school production and the "special effects" would have looked dated in the early 90's. Being the third part of a series the story would be unintelligible to anyone who hadn't seen or read about the other Left Behind movies, and even with my prior knowledge it was still pretty laughable.On the religious front, I don't think anyone who wasn't already filled with the spirit of the lord would find anything in the movie to convince them to change their ways. How are you supposed to fear the Antichrist when he's got a comedy Russian accent, and the worst of his powers are some pitiful CGI?However, my main problem with this movie is the blatant attempt to try and dupe people into believing that it's a big budget action movie. Upon picking up the box and reading the spiel I immediately noticed something odd...nowhere on the packaging was there a mention of the true nature of this film. To someone not in the know it would appear for all intents and purposed that Left Behind : World at War was no different from the latest Tom Clancey. Nor, on the copy that I rented did it say anything about it being the third in a series.Considering the whole premise of the series is that the Antichrist has deceived the whole world, I find it extremely hypocritical that the film makers tried to deceive me TWICE before I even got the to counter! If you're so firm in your beliefs then why not be honest about it?The simple fact is, had this not been a "Christian" movie with the built in fan base that goes with it, I seriously doubt it would ever have seen the light of day. If Cloud Ten were hoping that I'd see the error of my ways and give myself to God, I'm afraid to say I would have died of boredom and/or laughed myself to death before I ever had the chance.

This movie is a terribly bad literal understanding of the bible texts. Maybe they tried to do too much with the book series and frankly not even Louis Gosset Jr. can save this awful movie. Anyway this "additional return of the Lord movie" will enchant mostly those already obsessed with this kind of "Jack Chickesque" stories. The production has some value and give them credit for trying, but this material has little redemption to represent. I will not propose an end times treatise here. It is just that the whole notion of the movie is plain wrong. A president helping the anti-Christ, realizing what he has done, fighting him back. This requires elaborate imagination as biblically it does not stands scrutiny. And that is the flaw of the movie and the whole franchise. Escathological scrutiny will have you, at best, laughing at the premise. Also their literal view seems biased against the Catholic Church. Fo a good understanding of Tim La Hayes series check out Carl Olson's books on the subject.
