Featured reviews
I wanted to like this and decided to ignore the many bad reviews. The idea that Christianity may someday be outlawed is not far-fetched in today's world and all over the world people are being policed for their viewpoints and speech so the basis for this movie is solid. Problem is the writing and directing are a huge letdown. This movie is more than 2 hours long and doesn't really get going in any type of action till about 1 hour and 16 minutes in. That first hour is hard to get through and I struggled to stay awake. The people who made this knew how to bring on the emotions but there isn't much in the way of thrills, suspense or action considering it's about a group of people risking their lives to get bibles across state lines. I see the effort was there but ultimately it's a failure as a compelling movie. The 4 stars is being kind of generous.
Before anyone thinks I am anti-Christian when they read my review, I can say I am the most devout Christian of the faith. However, filmmakers are not making films that truly celebrate Christianity to the level it deserves. Most of the actors were believable but the story became more and more disinteresting. Most of the world does not hate Christianity. The problem is the hypocrites. Billy Graham was the true example of a faithful Christian but his son Franklin is a hypocrite. Dr. Graham spoke repeatedly about Franklin's struggles to actually practice what he preached but was never a faithful practicing Christian. Unfortunately, there was no point to this movie. A wasted effort.
This felt like a Christian hater movie. This would NEVER happen nor would real christian people allow this. This was absolutely terrible. A whole world hating the Bible then killing those who wanted to share the real Bible not the one they changed and took out so much information. I will never watch a movie from this director. Fake Christian if they claim they are for GOD. Again terrible movie.at the very end was they ONLY good thing about the movie. Smart and outsmarted the devil . The black guy was one of the good guys that made it. But the killing in this movie had no real grounds . Also was low budget made. It was difficult to keep Interest and the movie glitched a few times.
I'm a Christian, I thought the premise was intriguing. I ignored the negative reviews at my own peril--what a mistake!
Every scene is dripping with nonsense and cringe. There are so many characters with their own pointless story.
It's as if someone took a premise, plugged it into ChatGPT, and had it include things like 'humor', 'action', 'love'.
I would have turned it off but I was watching with my mom. Anyways, the acting sucked, the story sucked, the dialogue sucked, the movie was pointless, and to top it off, every once in a while there's a jarring insertion of 'humor' or something that does not fit. You've been warned.
Bad.

This is a film about hating America. The filmmakers imagine a future that is entirely fictional and unrealistic. Then they frame themselves as saviors who protect Americans by risking their lives to bring the word of 'god' to churches, mostly back east.
I don't know what they are drinking, or smoking, but there is little recognizable in this film- little Christianity, nothing ecumenical, and nothing of any redeeming social value. This is fantasy fodder for 'in-cels.'
Save your money and buy a Bible and read it for yourself. The recent trend for poorly educated people with poor critical thinking skills and dumb-enough-to-believe-anything personalities trying to frame themselves as hero's is ridiculous!

- TriviaAccording to the filmmakers, production was delayed for many years because many studios refused to believe the Bible would ever be outlawed in reality. In China however, the communist party rewrote parts of the Bible, even featuring Jesus stoning the woman caught in adultery.
