Christmas with the Chosen: The Messengers

Just thought it would be more of a movie instead of a worshiping service , and I believe others thought the same. Although I did enjoy it all, music was just a little long for me. I'm thinking since I've seen both seasons. The arriving of Jesus. Along with the fish symbol between the two men , I cried. Some ppl will get others maybe later.

I'm glad to support Christian movies in the theaters, but in this case it was very disappointing. The hour plus of CCM prior to the short episode was too long, and did not have very many well known artists. We asked each other - when is the actual movie going to start?

The short nativity episode was well acted and fits within the Chosen series, but was way too short to be in the theater. My wife and I went to the theater in support of the Chosen financially, and have given $ to support this kind of entertainment, but in this case we expected more.

I'd rather watch the Chosen from home on the TV and be able to FF to the actual episode. We're still looking forward to season 3 whenever that becomes available.

We didn't hate the movie, just felt like it could have been done much better. In this case it was a swing and a miss.

LOVED THE ACTUAL EPISODE ITSELF. It actually moved me to tears. Some of the absolute best and most powerful scenes and performances possible. Those 30 minutes was worth trying to sit through the rest of this thing. Some honest reviews here nail it. For over an hour to start this construct is nothing but song after song after song after song after song after song after song... bad lip syncing of revival music on the Chosen set. They honestly bought two plants from Peir One and placed them on the set and told the musicians to pretend to sing. One great verbal exposition by the wonderful actress that plays Peter's wife was also in there somewhere. I had no idea going in that this was 75% music. After about an hour I had to get up and walk out. I checked my phone and discovered reviews here that informed me that an actual episode was eventually coming. I'm so glad I did and instead of walking to my car I walked back in. What hit next was beyond WONDERFUL. Like the series, the little nuances and true essence was in every scene. You could feel the Holy Spirit with the actors and the writers. Best Christmas present possible. Worth the 75% check your watch music to get to that 25% pure gold.

This was the best new Christmas movie I'll see this year! You've knocked it out of the park for certain. Thank you for such a quality program. The music was awesome! So many groups, some I've heard of and a few new ones for me as well.

It was to me, a wonderful and worshipful experience honoring the true meaning of the season! Go Tell it! For Unto us a Child Is Born! A SON IS GIVEN! God With us-WOW! Very Impactful- loved it!
