    A fantastic comedy

    I really enjoyed watching this rubbish. Sufficient amount of cringe, terrible acting, ridiculous plot. I had a great laugh.

    Cult favorite

    This movie answers the question: what if a bunch of nobodies and incredibly giant babies got together and made a movie which comically tries to convince us that Christians are persecuted?

    Words mean things.

    And this movie seems to have no idea what the wors "communism" means. It also seems to have no grasp on logic or reality. It's almost impressive how bad this is.

    This is an excellent movie.....

    To be used as an example of how not to make a movie!

    What could be said about this production. Well, everything is bad about it.. the plot is cheesy, the script it cringe, acting is absolutely bewildering and the list goes on.

    But i will say this one thing about it. In as many horrible movies that i have watched over the years (for science you see), this one is the only one to actually show you the production set/camera/support vehicles as they film the scenes. They could not even managed to pick their angles/b roll that hides that.

    Anyway, aspiring film makers, watch this and do everything opposite and you will have success.

    Very bad even by Christian cinema standards

    Wow, this is a hot mess! Entertaining only for how horrible it is.

    The setup is your typical paranoid Christian persecution fantasy: Covid has been used as excuse to institute world government with "communism everywhere" and to outlaw Christianity - you know, all of Dr. Fauci's recommendations.

    It takes place just four years in the future, but somehow everyone has forgotten "the way things used to be" until the protagonist explains it. No details of the New World Order are ever given, and everything takes place on a very small scale. Really, it just seems like one overzealous local police chief.

    The "heroes" are a group of people who have decided to spread the word of Christianity again. They start with the bold act of spray painting fishes on things, once on piles of leaves. Eventually, they are aided by a woman who works in the police department, who is "what you would call a hacker" and she helps them identify "secret Christians" and invite them to rallies.

    The story takes place in Germany, and most of the actors are German, reading horrible dialog in English with very strong accents. Some of the actors are American, reading horrible dialog in English with American accents. In one scene, two women start in English, and then inexplicably switch to German with subtitles, presumably because one of them didn't speak English well enough to get through it.

    It's not clear how much of the dialog is written and how much is improvised, and the only director's note seems to be, "Speak more slowly and stretch it out. We've got to pad 90 minutes!".

    The sets and props would embarrass the most humble community theater. The police station appears to be a middle school auditorium, with some furniture in the corner. The main characters all live together in an an apartment, which for some reason has black plastic draped on the wall, a tiny Christmas tree, and a random string of twinkle bulbs. Late in the movie, someone apparently donated a fog machine, so they fill the police station with fog, just because they can.

    The movie remains weirdly agnostic about the virus, masks, social distancing, etc. Is it a hoax or is it real? I would assume the people making it are anti-mask, but the good guys always wear masks outdoors and socially distance, even when holding their super secret illegal meetings. On the other hand, they never wear masks indoors, when they're huddled together around the little Christmas tree. The bad guys randomly wear masks or don't, presumably based on the individual choices of the actors.

    This really doesn't even rise to the "so bad it's good" level, mostly because it's just not that interesting and all the actors are so low energy. Without the goofy exploding birds of Birdemic or ... everything about Tommy Wiseau, it just sort of falls flat.

    So only watch it if you're truly committed to seeing every bad movie.
