Policarpo

What a wonderful movie. I have only in the past few years learned a little about Polycarp, who was mentored by John the Apostle in John's later years. A rich part of very early Christian history comes through the story of Polycarp, and it is a very helpful story for those who understand they must embolden themselves for the final days, when followers of Christ Jesus will be severely persecuted.

I love the ways that this film shows some of the trials Polycarp and those near to him had to deal with, and for people like me with ears that WANT to hear, this film is not preachy at all, but a true jewel. It is my sincere belief that without those who literally hate Christ Jesus voting, this film would have been rated much, much higher. I agree with those who say most Christian movies are amateurish, etc. -- but vehemently disagree when it comes to this movie (and a few others, such as The Case for Christ, which also was very well done though depicting much more modern times).

Polycarp. Wow. Great film.

If you are looking for stunning visual effects and dramatic action sequences, this may not be the film for you. However, if you, like me, are looking for moving, challenging Christian films with a strong message and deep, engaging characters, you couldn't find better. The CGI is imperfect, as may be expected considering the budget they had to work with, but does come across as cheesy or phony looking-- just a little fuzzy. The acting is excellent and the script could not be better. The characters are engaging and the set is fantastic. I only hope the Henlines make more films soon because they are masters of historical fiction.

An exceptional historical depiction of believers who remain steadfast in the face of persecution and hardship. This movie will cause you to reflect on how you would choose to defend your belief and stand for God regardless of the consequences.

I have watched this movie around 25 times so far. I have told others about and they love it as much as I. I've watched it with my grandchildren to help bring a lost generation back to God

Im a 52 year old devout conservative Christian so I actually really love christian movies.

I don't care if they seem a bit amateurish, because the story is the most important thing and no need to waste millions of dollars to tell a Christian story, especially since most people will just bash Christian movies anyway. I find reviews bashing Christian movies because they're Christian movies, lolwut?!?! If you don't like Christian movies, don't watch christian movies!

I always go into these movies really wanting to like them. I love Christian movies the best because they have a good message on how to handle life situations and problems, or trials of faith or persecution. This one was about persecution, based on a true story. Unfortunately, this movie wasnt interesting to me. It was slow and boring. I hate to say that.
