Rapture

They missed the mark on so many levels with this movie let alone trying to justify the biblical aspect of it all. Don't expect this to be based on the Bible for they may have gotten a few ideas but totally missed the mark. With that being said, it was an interesting movie just to see where they were going with this. Sadly you'll be very disappointed if you were expecting to experience something truly based on Scripture of the Rapture. They tried too hard on some aspects then just went wild with the script. Too many things didn't add up or even come together. You have the "Robed Glowing Humanoids", same but different "Geist Like Creatures", the Black Voids that shoot lightning to incinerate humans to a stone distorted pile of goo, the Glowing things Vaporizing people including Children and some that do nothing but hurt if you look at them. It had its entertainment value but it was just weird and the acting was atrocious. Not sure what they were going for, for this would of been better as an apocalyptic film rather than a distorted Biblical Film.

Foiled again! This is the second time in a month I got pulled in by special effects for a disaster event movie moving into an apocalyptic nightmare. Curse my Saturday night love of dystopian landscapes. So I was about 2/3rds of the way invested when the tide turned and it all went christian in an effort to spur my very own come to Jehovah moment, in lieu of the absence of that age old hymn, "Just As I Am." The scene, taking the bible off the nightstand of the deathbed, did sound a few bells and whistles, but I chocked it up to dramatic schmaltz at the directors discretion. Up until the 2/3rds point I always thought a band of angels coming after me was a good thing. According to this movie, it ain't. It gives slain in the spirit a very smoldering meaning, and effect. SO, had I known before hand what exactly was waiting for me at the end of the rabbit hole, I would have given it a pass for something a little, WHAT AM I SAYING, a lot less bible belty.

I can't think of a good thing to write about this movie. The special effects are almost worse than SciFi channel movies.....which is saying a lot.

The acting is terrible. It's just a plain awful movie. Much of the occurences don't work if the nature of the movie is what it is supposed to be.

But, you gotta take it for what it is...a low budget movie made by some church group to push some religious ideology. Not made by an actual movie making outfit.

Don't get me wrong, there are some really good religious movies out there. Some mega movie classics. This just isn't one of them. Not by a long shot.

Rapture means to be snatched up violently. There was no snatching up, just incineration. I thought it was going to be a biblical movie. Instead it was a a movie without a real story line. The ending was left entirely void of any meaning. I'm so thankful I didn't buy this and only rented, even that is a waste of money. I get that production and the acting were going to be bad, but this was just a hot mess.

This was neither constructed well nor executed well. It appears to be an attempt by a Christian group to give a Scirnce Fiction twist yo it's interpretation of the accounts given in Revelatoons. It fails.
