The Firing Squad

I read on Facebook how these attackers are non-stop attacking the film. Shame on them. May God judge them according to their works.

I thought the performances of everyone were magnificent: I cared about the characters and their lives on and beyond the missile approaching. Taking the time to introduce everyone and weave their stories together was masterful, even beyond the main characters.

Again INCREDIBLE ACTING

I loved how the most important thing: Jesus Christ is all that matters in the end. This is a hard-core Christian film, but it will appeal to all. Why? Because it answers the question of what if you faced minutes to live by execution?

Visually pleasing in every way, dramatic, musically astounding, great acting and above all a fantastic story make this an undeniably iconic, enduring film.

This film is one for the ages.

I avoided it and didn't go to the theater because of the heavy criticism. From the criticism I was swayed into thinking that the acting was bad, story, etc.

Boy was I wrong. What is wrong with these haters? Anyone? Why are they repeatedly attacking all Christian films.

I have just ask "what is all the fuss about?" No movie is perfect. But was there anything really bad about this movie? Was there anything really wrong about the movie? So what if the scholarly detail isn't perfect. It's good enough for an ordinary person going to the cinema who has no clue about the details.

The film team did a good job. They deserve credit.

Keep making movies. You're good at it. Don't let anyone tell you any different.

To all the haters, please get a life. Get married. Travel the world. Find a cure for cancer. Invent something amazing. But don't waste your life hating this worthy movie, the filmmakers or Jesus.

The lead actor is believable, the prison warden not so much except at the end. Great story. I found myself thinking about the movie for several days after. That speaks to the power of the message that Jesus truly transforms people's hearts, priorities, and behaviors, no matter that they've done bad things in life. I would have scored it higher but some of the acting seemed flat and the videography didn't wow, probably reflecting the tight budget for an initial film from a new studio. I'm looking forward to what Epoch Times will produce next and hoping that this first foray is successful and attracts many more investors with deep pockets for future projects.

I had heard this movie was really good, so I went to see it this past weekend. So glad I made it!

This film is full of tension, as the story unfolds, and you cannot help but feel for the main characters, even if they had no one to blame but themselves for getting into the predicament they are in.

I am a huge Kevin Sorbo fan, but I was surprised to see Cuba Gooding Jr. In this picture as well! Both actors are excellent playing their characters, as you would expect, and the young star James Barrington was quite good in his role as well. I haven't seen him before, but I'm sure he will pop up in future films. He is very talented.

But I think the actor who steals the spotlight from everyone is Tupua Ainuii, who plays the character of the prison warden Captain Tanu. I don't think you could have picked a better actor for that role. He looks similar in size to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and has similar acting chops.

A very powerful, convicting, faith-based movie, and the title is misleading. The film is really about forgiveness, hope, mercy, and ultimately redemption.

I highly recommend this movie. The story was well thought out although fairly complex. The acting was top notch and cinematography excellent. It really makes you think. Kevin Sorbo, the lead actor, really portrays what it would be like to go through difficult period of facing execution. James Barrington, the other main actor, really stepped up his performance as well - haven't heard of him before. It was not a short movie but I never felt like it was dragging at all. There was also a very powerful family story with Cuba Gooding's character - tremendous actor. His unrelenting faith was very encouraging.

The other big thing is that it shows the difficult life of prisoners in third world countries and I give thanks to God I'm free. I don't know if the dramatic events happen in real life but they sure portrayed them effectively.
