YOUR RATING
Appealing (2023)
Christine, a young attorney on the brink of death, finds herself at the gates of heaven and hell. Having summarily received a sentence to hell, she demands an appeal. This sets her on a path of spiritual discovery, shepherded by three strangely familiar characters.

It should be noted that this film is psychological and spiritual in focus, but definitely not a mainstream Christian film. The film does contain adult themes and some strong language.

    Amazing

    It was a good film, it had a great story and the visuals was genuinely good. I never seen a wonderful film that makes you feel a roller-coaster of emotions. And I really appreciate the references to other films. And the costumes were very beautiful and artistically good. And the song was very beautifully sung and I was wondering who's was singing. And I really liked the fact that my lord and savior was in the film. And I am very grateful to watch and see the film on AppealingTv on my smart TV that I have in my home. And I can't wait to see more from the director who I can tell is very genius man.

    **"Appealing" - A Thought-Provoking Descent**

    "Appealing" is a captivating and unconventional exploration of the afterlife. It masterfully blends psychological drama with spiritual inquiry, offering a unique and unsettling perspective on life, death, and the choices we make. Christine's journey, from defiant lawyer to questioning soul, is both harrowing and enlightening. The performances are nuanced and powerful, drawing the viewer deeply into Christine's internal struggle. While not for the faint of heart due to its mature themes and language, "Judgment Day" is a film that will stay with you long after the credits roll. It's a powerful reminder to examine our lives and the choices we make, and to consider the profound impact they have on ourselves and others.
