Encountering "The Encounter", part two...

After watching The Encounter (movie), and really enjoying it, I was game to watch this second one. While different in plot, style, and follow-through, I enjoyed it just as much as the first one. The real-life trials the characters were going through added to the reality. I really enjoyed it. Bruce Marchiano's modern-day portrayal of Jesus. He is warm and friendly, and gives a loving touch to the relationship Jesus Christ desires to have with each one of us.

I was disappointed with this sequel - but loved the original

I can't say it was a bad movie. I just can't say it was an original or good movie. I think that's what disappoints me with it.

The original Encounter was like a parable. I didn't take it literally, and the simple staging worked well with the metaphorical presentation that made you think about you and your personal relationship with your savior. This one drowns in scenery and detail. We have the Boxing Day typhoon in Thailand as history. We have a whole background story of action from a mafia movie, the drug dealer, the cop, etc. We have the lush and lovely background of Phukett, Thailand and those beautiful beaches. Worst of all, we have the not at all well done fight scenes. All of that distracted from the beautifully simple message of the original.

Very poor film

Poor acting, weak plot and despite going to a beautiful place the camera work is also poor. Do American people really think that an American DEA officer can use a gun here? He would be executed for murder if he killed someone. Just the same as if a Thai drugs officer started shooting people in Miami. Most Thai people cannot even read English so the badge hanging around his neck means no more than a badge written in Thai would mean in America. Really stupid story. After that low beginning it just rapidly goes downhill. I would like to end with a complement, to be polite and put a nice sentence of mitigation but there is no saving grace in this film. It is pathetic religious propaganda.

Maybe not as good as the first but it is good

With Christian films (and all faith films) when they get a hit (the original) the sequels are normally not anywhere near as good, this one is different. It may not be as good as the original but it's worth the watch. Maybe should have been a two part episode in the tv series instead.

Great movie!

I love the guy who plays Jesus in this movie and the first Encounter movie. He has the greatest smile and is extremely believable in the role. I think it's so great that real Bible Christianity is finally being taught here. A Christian heroin addict dies and they show that she goes to heaven. Of course she would. Does the Bible teach that taking drugs is a bigger sin than the sin of doubt, worry, fear or lying, and no one doubts that those sins will keep you out of heaven. Thank goodness the blood paid for it all! I didn't mind the violence so much because, why sugar coat real life and the problems real life Christians face everyday!
