Final: The Rapture: (Film Review)






Finally "The Rapture" is depicted through this well made Drama/Thriller/Tear-Jerker.

Based on the Christian belief that millions of Christians from around the world will suddenly and bodily disappear when Jesus "kidnaps" them is seen through the eyes of four main characters simultaneously.
Filmed around the world: L.A, Tokyo, Buenies Airies and Hawaii helps gives this film an authentic feel. But what sets this End of the World movie above the rest is the superior acting of it's international cast.as you are "caught up" in the characters' plights as they search for the truth to the disappearances amidst all the theories and trying to survive the chaotic aftermath.

You might not believe in Jesus by the end but you'll KNOW you've seen a good movie.

But, as is usually the case, the Book version of this story is better. (From the Bible).

No swearing but some violence makes it a PG.

I give it 8 Golden Christian Fishes. (It probably deserves 9 but I'm judging it on a harsher scale because I'm trying to overcome my own Christian bias)


**NOTE:  Several different languages spoken in this film, so if you want it ALL translated into English, just turn on the SDH or English Subtitles or CC. Almost every film has "audio" (dubbing) & "subtitles" settings attached to them these days 
     On TV's made in the past 20 years there is the CC/Text "channels" on them. Having everything I watch written in English at the bottom of my screen is a habit I picked up several years ago.
