Rumors of Wars

I read the previous negative reviews and almost didn't watch because of them, but the problem is those reviews seem to be proffered by people hostile to religion; hostile to Christianity in general. The movie is as good as most Hollywood movies. I mean, look at movies like Avatar; that movie was clearly anti-capitalism, anti-military, and even anti-Western society. So what if Rumors of Wars has an agenda. There really IS some truth to potential conspiracies. Look up Operation Northwood an admitted CIA project that planned to blame terrorist attacks on Cuba so as to launch an invasion.

The acting in this movie is as good as most cheesy Hollywood junk, like Dumb and Dumber, Joe Dirt and some of the junk people think is great. Give it a chance.

The overall message is good. But just like many Christian movies before it the acting isn't great. The audio is also not great at times as well. The sad thing is that many Christian circles will see this movie and think that it's great. when in reality the only good thing about the movie is the message. But guess what, when it comes to movies the message isn't the only thing that makes a good movie. You have to have good actors, a good sounds score, and better effects. All of that will help push the overall message and make people care about what's going on in the movie. Christians should demand better movies then this. If the movie is good then more people will see it. When you make bad movies you can't blame the world for not liking them. The movies should be as good or better then any other non Christian movie that's out there. No one is going to care about the message if the movie is filled with bad actors.

This is a movie that seems to be judged, and therefore rated to either extreme by either non-Christians or Christians. Any reviewer should understand this: It is a Christian themed movie. With that in mind, I thought they did a good job with the budget they had and saw no major issues worth condemnation. The prophetic theme was both necessary and appropriate. I felt most of the acting was good. There were a few exceptions of certain actors that were not particularly great; nevertheless, the main characters were proficient enough as not to detract from the story.

The back story running concurrently with the plot was well done. If you are a believer in the Bible and literal biblical prophecy you will probably enjoy it--I did.

Started watching because it sounded interesting. Go watch 'Equilibrium' and replace sense offense with Christian cautionary tale.

I was okay with the low budget, but a half hour in there were too many scenes similar to equilibrium for me to not see that this was a ripoff unless it was directed by Kurt Wimmer, and it wasn't.

The concept could have been cool but there is to much crossover to not consider this plagiarism, and I am talking about scene settings and lines, not concept

A little more creativity would have gone a long way. Not sure if they will face litigation

"Rumors of Wars" is an okay Xtian indie with a dystopian theme. Although uneven, the acting and directing are better than in most efforts like this. If (like me) you're sympathetic to it's anti-globalist politics, it's not excessively religious.

Full Disclosure: I'm not an Abrahamic believer. Yes angry atheists, it's possible to be a non-believer without turning into a raging, raving Christaphobe. Try it some time.
