    Inspirational and heart touching

    It is a very inspiring movie. Certainty as a Christian movie it presents good conservative moral values. The actors play a very strong and convincing role. Maybe the scenery and the script is simple but the message is strong and it reaches the heart and tha attention during the full movie. It would have been interesting that the stories narrated by the main character could be dramatized this would be for me the only lack in the movie. Very recommended for a reflection in these days of so squeeze moral values. A strong call for the relevance of speaking the truth and being trustworthy. Bible is also enhanced as the trustful word of God.

    Best movie around!

    I wish I could buy this movie! Hopefully that will be an option sometime in the future. I would give it 15 stars if i could. I watched it several nights ago at a nearby church & I was blown away! It is so awesome! I havent seen a movie that touched me like this one did, in decades. My hat is off to all involved! I would say more, but I don't want to give anything away. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience! In a world that has become so full of darkness, this was a fantastic glimpse of God's grace that so many people need to find. Thank you Jesus! 🙏

    AWESOME!

    This film was inspiring and very warm. I loved it from the beginning to the ending. Usually when I watch movies where we get a flash forward , I would've love to see the developments of the other characters but I know that's a luxury. The movie in itself has a great plot, buildup and end. Every character chosen played their roles to a T and I couldn't complain. The movie genuinely gave a great pure feeling as if I were presently there. This is one movie I would recommend to any and all age groups. I can definitely see myself hitting the re button on the playlist for Pureflix. Great job everyone.

    Moved my Heart

    I didnt even know this movie existed until I was getting ready to attend a Sandy Patti concert. The trailer started playing on my phone and I was getting teary listening. The Lord works in mysterious ways! I knew then I wanted to see it, and started telling many people about this movie before I even saw it. The subject matter speaks to my heart to the core. This is the sadness of hearts breaking ~ as this world slips into destruction. The knowledge that there is a way for people to be saved beyond the grave and into eternity. So many won't listen. It's a grievous thing to watch people perishing. To see them reject the path to eternal life and hope. I cried both times, and I'm still crying. It's a life-changing story...for your eternity and mine. Don't miss it! If you are led, tell people about this movie. May its message circle the globe until the end of time.

    I didn't want to but I cried.

    Spider Man faded - I cried. They shot Ole Yellow - I cried End of Toy Story - I didn't cry Generally, I rate a movie experience by the impact it has on me emotionally. Some make me mad that I wasted my time (Caddy Shack 2), others leave me pumped up and ready to take on the world (Braveheart). I movie that can bring me to tears is a 10. Let me just say that the crisis in this movie is all too real. It speaks to every person. Whether you are a Christian or not you will find this movie thought provoking, entertaining and you may even catch yourself wiping away a few tears as you identify with one or more of the well developed characters.
