This Is Our Time

Well worth watching but I will say I think it could have been better. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 8/24/2021.

As is common in many religion-oriented movies and shows, the script and acting are quite weak. However, most people would call me an atheist and/or anti-religion yet I still appreciate this movie. The ideas are good, I smiled and cried. Production is pretty bad but if you're a book-reading person then I think you can make this movie better in your mind.

If you're religious, this movie can easily translate across the multitudes of faiths. Even if you're all about science but still appreciate moral values, this is worth seeing. My low rating is almost entirely about production. I'd give it an 8 for story idea but the script and acting are terrible.

This movie is definitely not the average movie, and this is meant in the rather positive sense.

Speaking about the negative elements first, it has sometimes the look and feel as if trying hard to make up a Christian 'Friends' format. This is not really negative, but in the scene where one character speaks in the sandwich bar with his ex-girlfriend and his friends on the table behind synchronize their conversation, is definitely in the category of sin, of gossip. Not a Christian thing to do. But that was already all the negative and the positive prevails by far.

The movie is very honest with hard questions to THEOS and with the challenges and sometimes toughness of Christian life. This is far above average and very positive, to have a movie speak about those uncomfortable truths we usually rather ignore. And after we learn many small lessons between the tragic element and the end of the movie, we see then a more complete picture of a purpose which could indeed be of KYRIOS.
