Time Changer

Unlike most Hollywood films, which often have a budget of well over 100 million dollars, this film was financed by people who are passionate about their faith. I am sure that the catering account for most feature film sets would tower over the entire cost of this picture. This film was a labor of love in all respects and its purpose was to help the viewer identify with the reason for our existence. This film portrays the flawed human character with great accuracy and then speaks to us in a language that Hollywood can't quite understand. That language is forgiveness. If you truly care about your family and what they watch, this is the movie for you.

I originally bought this film because I collect time-travel movies and read about it on the internet ( it's unknown in Europe ). On a purely time travel basis, I was very satisfied with the movie. There were limited special effects, which is a good thing and it was funny to see our hero's reaction confronted with modern day life ( like in Time After Time ). The picture quality and dialogue were wonderful and it was easy to understand what was going on. Naturally, if you are not of the Christian religion, you may find the film less interesting as there are certain passages where there is a lot of Christian preaching. But as a Christian myself, though not a very good one, this does not bother me at all. I nevertheless felt that the story could have been a bit longer and a bit more exciting. On the moral side, I was very happy to hear the man lashing out at today's moral standards because, even if there was immorality in 1890 ( there has always been immorality in the world ), it is even worse today. Certain bad things of 100 years ago have been corrected but other, even worse things, have taken their place. If you take for one example, violence in the cinema, it is today far worse than fifty years ago. Music has become more violent. The world of Commerce has become more violent. Road rage, rape, abortion, insider dealing on the stock exchange, the size of bombs and weapons ....the list is endless and there's no point in insisting. Of course it's very difficult to live like Jesus Christ ! There's too much material temptation in our path which leeds to greed etc ..... but one must start by at least admitting the lack of morality before trying to correct it. It's normal that a hundred year jump in time should cause our hero to be greated with total shock and to change his views on certain things when he returned to his time frame. If we could do the same we should probably change our views. Anyway, putting all this moralistic stuff aside, the film was a pleasure to watch because it didn't contain violence and because our hero's thoughts were pure and naive. I can understand it not being everyone's cup of tea but I for one should like to see more of these films on the screen - some preaching, of course, but also a lot of humour and some originality !!

I really enjoyed this movie. It is a pleasure to have a movie that tells the truth and is family safe. More and more often movies seem family safe on the outside and then you take your kids and are shocked by the content (Shrek 2, Spongebob).

I am shocked to read the comments others left who say they are Christians but that the message of this film is outdated!!!! The bottom line that this movie presents is that truth is absolute not relative. That taking God out of it and just living a good, moral life is not enough because then truth becomes whatever you think or society thinks at the moment. The truth of the Bible, of Christianity is that good works will not get you into heaven. Faith on Jesus Christ, asking Him into your heart as your Saviour is THE ONLY way to heaven. And that is what this movie is telling us.

Too many "christians" are watering down their faith to try not to offend, but that is not what Jesus called Christians to do. Be strong in your faith and share the gospel!!!

While this film may not be the best acted and is not Oscar material, it is honest and full of wonderful truths!!!

It wasn't the best movie I've ever seen but the message of what a 19th century theologian professor would see if he travels to the future is very thought provoking. If your judging this movie by the message then that just lets people know your beliefs if your judging the movie on how well it was done then that's a different story. If you don't believe that there are an overwhelming increase of foul language and sexuality in the media over the years then oh well. My dad who might not have been a Christian even saw the changes in the media. The message is important. Christians too often accept things that they shouldn't.

AFter reading the comments of viewers, I came to the realization that one thing is certain: No matter what one thinks or how one feels about this film, it's premise is absolutely true. Narrow is the road that leads to life and many will miss it.
