The Coming Convergence

This is a well put together documentary on Biblical eschatology; the study of Biblical prophecy dealing with the time of judgement or end of days.

I recommend this documentary for anyone interested in what the bible has to say about the last days for the current modern age we live in, whether you are a believer with a good grasp of the topic or someone curious and just beginning to learn.

With Christian film productions often getting a bad wrap for poor quality this would be refreshing for almost anyone especially for those outside of the faith.

Spends a lot of time asking questions and restating them, then summarizing them. Eventually presents biblical prophecies which are very appropriate for 2024 AD. The film presents good translations and applications of ancient Bible texts which may be helpful to people beginning to learn about end times prophecy. The gratuitous restating and opining keeps the timer count going but I found it frustrating.

For example the actor portrayal dialogue is then repeated by the narrator in an attempt to "set the stage" the video finally presents information 35 minutes into the 1 hr 40 minute film. The topic is important, getting it out to the public is a worthy endeavor but be prepared to fast forward through some redundant material.

The movie itself is not that interesting but - and its a big but - it will make you think about what you saw in the movie and who knows, it might change your life. It did for me, made me think about it content and I looked on the internet on this subject and it helped me understand things I never thought about before. As for anything in this world - some will hate it and some will love it, some will think its just garbage and some will find it helpful and thought provoking. I suggest you watch it cause you might actually get something from it. I know I did.

From a filmmakers perspective, the audio and film footage is decent, lots and lots of stock footage with a narrative overlay, intermixed with occasional average filmed interview clips, decent editing.

From a consumer perspective, this reminds me of most Christian produced documentaries I have watched dating back as far as the 1970's, a bit slow paced, some what national geographic style. Might be good for churches to show that want an easy way to open a discussion on end time theology, or people who are interested in apocalyptic doctrine. Its a bit repetitive at times, paints a grim future. The appearance of a young woman at the opening, intermittently and closing of the film is a little odd. It has a lot of information, but will be considered a conspiracy documentary by some.

Is it worth watching? As a documentary filmmaker and fan, it was OK for a one time watch, but id not put it on my list of films I'd watch more than once.

This provides an excellent description of the prophecies and signs of the end times described in the Bible.

I would definitely recommend that everyone should watch this.
