Revelation

My personal opinion is that this is one of the best Christian films I have seen on the End Times. I am a Christian so I am totally biased. I have heard some people that are not Christians say they did not like the movie and I think that some of the comments are understandable. If you are not a Christian then you are probably not going to accept that there will be an anti-Christ that the Holy Scriptures talk about. Taking the mark 666 so you can buy or sell, being totally deceived by Satan and supposedly peace globally. If you are not a Christian this is probably a real joke and nonsense, even fanatical. But to those of us that are Christians, this movie makes total sense and how the Bible says in Revelation (and Daniel) that it will be.

I highly recommend this movie to everybody that is Christian. And to those that are not, you should check it out anyway, just to see what Believers think will happen in the End Times, based on the Scriptures.

And try to concentrate on the words, the message, not whether or not this is great acting like Laurence Oliver or Tom Cruise or even Leonardo DiCaprio. Great acting is not the point, where you spend eternity is.

Jeff Fahey, Carol Alt, Leigh Lewis and the entire cast were superb!

"Thoroid Stone" (Jeff Fahey) is a police officer who is totally devastated because he has lost his wife and child to the supernatural phenomenon known as "the Rapture" which was covered in the previous movie "Apocalypse". While absorbed in his thoughts he gets a call that a school bus has been bombed and he races to the scene to investigate. Once there he is informed that the people responsible for the bombing is a group called "the Haters" who oppose the new world dictator, "Franco Macalousso" (Nick Mancuso). But Detective Stone is not necessarily convinced that this group was responsible and the deeper he probes the more evidence he uncovers that they are being framed. Additionally, he also discovers a connection to a top-secret event called "the Day of Wonders" which Franco Macalousso is set to unveil in the next few days. Anyway, rather than disclose any more details and possibly spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this was a very imaginative film. It was also a bit better than its predecessor due in large part to some notable additions which included Tony Nappo (as "Willie Spino"), Carol Alt ("Cindy Bolton") and the aforementioned Jeff Fahey. Likewise, Nick Nancuso replaced Sam Bornstein in the role of Franco Macalousso. These additions, along with retaining Leigh Lewis ("Helen Hannah"), were definite improvements. On the flip-side though I must admit that the overall plot which involved "virtual reality on steroids" did seem a bit far-fetched. Still, it was an entertaining film for the most part and because of that I rate it as slightly above average.

To paraphrase Comic book Guy from the Simpsons "Worst Film Ever!!!" And this does not even begin to tell you what you have let yourself in for by watching this film. Timed at 551/2 mins before the incredulity of the wooden acting wore off! The only saving grace was a quite unique, and I suppose vaugely interesting storyline, which somehow managed to distract from the acting - just long enough for you to last till the dissapointing 'climax'.

A different twist to the End Times, where technology will determine your fate. However, parts of the film's plot are flawed (blowing up a schoolbus won't mean much if all the children have already gone) and compared to Left Behind, this film lacks punch and credibility.

...this one will petrify you. When you watch films such as The Shining... Scream... all volumes of Freddy Kruger, etc., etc., you are scared, obviously, but it really doesn't affect your inner soul. You have sort of a security blanket in your mind, because you know this is not true; it never happened.

Revelation, although, literally makes you tremble because of its sheer, true-to-life impact. It WILL happen; it's not a matter of 'if'...but 'when.' It's not a wholly bad thing, either, it forces you to look over your spiritual life and ask yourself if you're really putting what is necessary into your faith life; your relationship with God. Go rent it, feel yourself quiver.
