Featured reviews
I experience synchronicity on regular basis and was/am on a similar mission so I can understand the anger, but even I feel this was too long as I was mainly interested in facts here.
I don't think the other parts were bad, just partially unnecessary for me.
All in all, a very interesting documentary - with a good story and good science.
It is really a shame that open-minded/neutral scientists are still rare on this planet.
But it's a bigger shame that those who do exist are marginalized and even mocked.
Hopefully, in the future that will not be the case so a documentary like this won't have to contain the emotional drama the neutral ones of us have to go through in our lives.

An excellent scientific review, not without some missteps. This documentary does a good job reviewing the geologic evidence, and other scientific reasoning to support a specific date for the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Though not perfect, it makes an impressive case.
Unfortunately, in the interest of padding things, the show introduces an older lady who waxes poetic about things like archetypes, purpose, and synchronicity. Blah blah blah, pretty boring, but necessary to stretch this out to an hour and a half. Also disappointing is the nerdy atheistic "scholar" of the New Testament who continues to tell us why the gospels are unreliable without without presenting evidence for his claims.
The main protagonist in this documentary is a geologist whose mission in life is to find enough evidence to support a certain date for the crucifixion. When he and the other scientists are explaining what they do and what they have found, this show is definitely at its best. Unfortunately even he spends too much time sharing his feelings, philosophies, and other extraneous information not related to the task at hand. But if you can muddle through all that and focus on the scientific evidence, it's pretty breathtaking, and definitely fascinating.
Despite the annoying commentators, it's definitely worth watching for the scientific content. I strongly recommend.

I was hoping to watch something "historical" or "scientific" on the earthquake that happened at the crucifixion, but instead I was left feeling like I wanted to slit my wrists. This guy was so depressing, negative & whoa-is-me and that hippy hippy chick from Orlando was talking utter nonsense. Her segments had nothing to do with the relevance of the subject matter, other than to defend how he was feeling. There's nothing historical about this "documentary" at all. There is very little information pertaining to the earthquake or to the information he was gathering to get this crucifixion quake date. This show was all over place, interviews with people who were just as negative or just didn't want to be there. This show was utter nonsense, so don't waste your time.
I randomly began watching this video. I generally don't watch the 'proof' type films. But as a 'background' movie to play while engaged in other work, I let it run.
I starts slowly and somewhat odd with a focus on an apparently angry individual who is hurt by his rejection by scientist peers.
As the film progresses it continuosly and progressively presents a wealth of valid information.
I was very surprised at the validity and the strong case for the data presented.
This was a suprise.
I would recommend this video as a relevent historical study of the events in that period.
Well done, engaging and featuring credible people.
This film is damn weird. The main character of the documentary is a geologist that has deep emotional problems. He wants to prove that there was an earthquake at the hour Jesus was crucified. That's fine and a worthy pursuit. But most of the film involves this geologist talking about his emotional issues with metaphysical commentary thrown in by a few others. It's a shame could have been a great documentary.
