This movie needs a prepared mentality for it.. how prepared?... if you are religious and christian then you could enjoy this movie by comparing the elements in it to what is known in Christianity.. if you are religious and not christian you could also enjoy it as a christian do even some of the elements in the movie you do not agree with.. now if you are not religious then there is a slight chance that you like this movie if you see it as fictional story.. like any other fictional story you could see that is PG-13.. The movie included an introduction to a family when later loses a member of it.. a grieving member of that family got an unusual invitation to a "magical world" to meet "God".. The dialogue with "God" and the "magical world" discovery is almost the whole movie!.. There are very good actors and actresses that really attracted audience to this movie but then they did not give a realistic feeling and reaction to what it is suppose to be sometimes. The scenes were amazing .. artistic direction is good.. the CGI quality is lower than expected at some points.. story line is expected after the first 20 minutes and there are couple of emotional scenes that will make me re-watch them several times.It could be difficult to watch if you are not religious or do not like christian movies but if you watch it as fictional story then you might like it!
... View MoreAll you people saying this is a bad film obviously don't like Christians and or hate the religion in general. Now I don't usually watch these films but at least I got the point. You want a bad faith based film then watch the Gods not Dead series.
... View MoreDefinitely a faith based movie so if thats not your "cup of tea" then this movie is not for you. The theology wasn't a bullseye but it hit it's intended target. With that said I didn't find anything that offensive. If you go in with that in mind then you will probably enjoy the movie. I did.
... View MoreThis movie is not just bad, it is offensive to human intelligence and soul. I disliked it so much I will find it hard to watch Sam Worthington and Octavia Spencer with the same eyes again in another movie. I only hope this review will save someone the time to go through it.
