Avis à la une
It is often said that scripture interprets scripture, but most of us are working with incidental fragments from a rather large book. This writer takes one of the toughest messages and manages to assemble the supporting chapters and events without becoming bogged down, overwhelming the novice or boring the expert. I know the story of Abraham and Sarah quite well, and bought tickets with the idea that I would suffer through a low budget interpretation for a good cause, but it was a great show; I walked away feeling like I met the characters and gained new perspectives on the message. Nice segue into the Gospels, great message for young and old, light on the graphic stuff and excellent for conversation after the film.
It is easy to get your hopes up for a Christian based movie to make as powerful an impact as the Chosen has.
That said, I love the story, most of the actors are very stiff.
Abraham is far too stoic for a man who hears the voice of God.
The artistic license of the journey to the mountain is somewhat interesting.
The movie does not inspire me to grow closer to God. The sermons I hear from an everyday minister are more inspiring.
I didn't hate the movie because I'm happy that there is still a chance that it touches someone's heart and changes their life.
I am happy to have Christian based content available for my family. My grandchildren were bored in the first ten minutes.
When they watched the Chosen they were glued to the screen.
While is is unfair to compare the two, that is exactly what I find myself doing.

I desired to see this film. For subject, for Angel Studios . Indeed, with some not reduced expectations .
And I liked it. Maybe , just I loved it for a couple aspects.
It is very difficult to imagine the fair manner to tell this Genesis part. Because it is intense, complicated, dark and hopefull in same measure. So, I saw it without compare with the lines of Old Testament or with my images about characters. And, starting from this start point, easy was to appreciate the effort of actors, the atmosphere and the puzzle of events , not in chronological order but with interesting effort to put in honest form, the familiar facts. And, especially, the dialogue.
At the first sight, it is a film for a precise target. Indeed, Abraham has not one hundred years old and Sara seems too nervous, the young actor for role of Isaac represents not the most impressive option and the encounter with our Lord seems too simple solution.
But not strict accuracy or innovations / useful, in manz senses, must be the significant poinst, I suppose, but the message. And it is clear and loud .So, not being Choosen, it is a decent adaptation , not out of some good appreciations who it high deserves.

I finally had a chance to see this and I liked it. Is it a great film that can be ranked among the great film makers? No. The pacing is poor, the structure isn't great and some of the acting... well is amateurish. But consider the fact that this is the producer, writer directors first major film. So I'll give him a break there. The visuals are stunning. The actress playing Sara really brings it, and delivers a great performance. The actor playing Abraham, knows about one expression it seems. While this story plays out in a few pages in Genesis, it would be a challenge to stretch that material out for an entire feature film. So there was some filler that does not appear in the bible it does not add or detract from the story fortunately. There was plenty of emotion to be found and I did find the film up lifting. Give it a chance.
This movie made up elements and left out such important ones. God's covenant with Abraham, God's speaking with and providing for Hagar, the visitation by the Lord and prophecy of Issac's birth in the coming year (when Sarah laughed, giving Issac his name). I would have preferred the story to be told linearly so we could have agonized with Sarah over her infertility, rejoiced at Issac's birth then really felt the gut punch when God tells Abraham to sacrifice his only son. Also I would have liked to have seen more clearly portrayed Abraham's faith in God's promise that Issac would be the seed to generations and therefore God might even resurrect Issac if necessary. (Hebrews 11:17-19). The movie fell short of my expectations, but I'm glad it has spoken to so many. Hopefully the director will consider sticking more closely to scripture in his future endeavors.
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesIt is widely believed by many that Jesus was crucified in or near where Abraham was going to sacrifice his son, Isaac. This was a parallel to show how painful it was for God to give up His only son for the sake of mankind (hence, why Jesus is called "The Lamb").
