Ratings and reviews

I haven't watched this film yet but I know the story. If Christians cannot be overcomers and be raptured before the great tribulation, they will have to pay a heavy price during the great tribulation. If they deny the name of the Lord in order to save their life, they will have the number of the beast on their forehead(666) and they will not have a share in the kingdom of God. That is tragic. I truly pray that I can be raptured before the great tribulation.

A masterpiece. It Is a visceral.journey through commitment and Truth. Beautifully filmed. Andrew didn't need to get an Oscar for this, but it should be acknowledged how superior his craft is. As well as Adam Driver. It is not difficult to get through. It is simply very real. If that's what you want in a movie this is for you.

The acting is amazing. The film on the other hand is very hard to get through. If you're feeling emotionally strained, I would steer clear. If you're feeling emotionally resilient to human suffering, then go for it.
