Item Description...
Overview
On an overseas flight to London, journalist Buck Williams (Kirk Cameron) and pilot Rayford Steele (Brad Johnson) are caught in the middle of the most incredible event in history. Suddenly, without warning, dozens of passengers simply vanish into thin air.
But it doesn't stop there. It soon becomes clear that millions of people are missing from around the world.
As chaos and anarchy engulf the world, both men set out on vastly different paths in a desperate search for answers.
Based on the New York Times best-selling novel, Left Behind is overflowing with suspense, action and adventure. This riveting motion picture will take you on a spellbinding journey through the mysterious book of the Bible, The Book of Revelation.

 | Banal, Pathetic, Out of Touch Jan 30, 2007 |
I have always had a morbid fascination with that segment of the population that believes that the Bible is the only book one has to read, and that great literature consists entirely of the Left Behind series. I bought this movie to get a sense of this group.
Banal is the kindest word I can find for this tripe. Third rate actors, low-rent science fiction backdrops, and completely out of touch with reality. The movie opens with the Israeli agricultural "miracle." What it does not tell the audience is that Israel would be a dead state if it were not for the 20% of the Israeli government's budget funded by US taxpayers through the US Government's very unwise investment in this apartheid regime (see Jimmy Carter's new book) and if it were not for the blatant Israeli underground pipes that are literally looting the Arab aquifers at long range and from way beneath the earth. Israeli agriculture is not a miracle, it is a travesty--it consumes 50% of all the water used in Israel, and produces less than 5% of the Gross Domestic Product.
The movie goes downhill from there. Just to place it in a proper religous movie context, if the "Ten Commandments" was a perfect 10, this movie is no more than a 1 and certainly not even close to a 2. | | |  | LEFT BEHIND - THE MOVIE - KIRK CAMERON Jan 18, 2007 |
| THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES ON THE RAPTURE AND KIRK CAMERON IS GENUINELY ACTING WITH HIS PRIOR ATHEIST MINDSET. GREAT SPECIAL EFFECTS AND CAST. | | |  | I Stayed Up Late for This? Jan 14, 2007 |
Given the tremendous sum of money that this series of novels has garnered, prior to its adaptation to the big screen, this movie is a dismal failure and a testament to the sacrifice of quality in favor of fiscal stinginess. There is no excuse for providing a loyal fan base with a cheap B-grade level, not-quite-good-enough-for-prime-time hack job, however Cloud Ten Productions has managed to hash out 95 minutes of visual drivel that even a low-budget Third World airline wouldn't bother scheduling on their red-eye flights.
The Internet Movie Database offers this bit of insight into the "artistry" of Paul Lalonde who is the "creative" (*gag!*) half of the "fabulous" Lalonde brothers, founders of Cloud Ten: "With two degrees in psychology, Paul is able to apply his knowledge of the human psyche to the characters in his movies." One would expect that this level of academic acumen might justify having a better sense of casting for a movie than settling for the likes of Kurt Cameron, Janaya Stephens, and host of others that usually wind up as the expendable extras who are sliced and diced in a cheesy horror film. Cameron is one of the most over-rated thespians I've ever seen and given the pathetic display of his craft here I am proud to say that I have never seen an episode of "Growing Pains". Brad Johnson and Clarence Gilyard are the only surviving hope for this sleeping-pill-on-celluloid and it's tragic that their talent is wasted and that they are surrounded by untalented no-names who can't act themselves out of a wet paper bag. A Canadian to play Carpathia? Am I to be convinced that they couldn't find a European actor with a better accent than this DeNiro wanna-be? Any serious scholar of eschatology knows that the AntiChrist will arise out of the resurrected Roman Empire and there should have been an effort to find an actor to the task.
The whole production is a farce, the majority of which was shot in Canada (now there's convincing on-location environment for you) and shows no initiative of capturing the feel for the Holy Land. Having seen multiple films that have been filmed in the Middle East, this gets the "Let's Just Throw It Together And Forget About Authenticity Because We Assume Our Viewing Audience Are Morons Without A Clue" award.
The lousy special effects further rob this film of any credibility. The apocalyptic theme demands visual effects that should be inferior to none. After all, the intent here is to show the end of this world and provide visual shock-and-awe. It is more schlock-and-yawn and, like the song "It's the End of the World as We Know It" by the ending credits I still feel fine.
Sadly, this is a testament to what happens when a production company is chosen because of its claims to being a Christian film company, not based upon its ability to deliver quality.
Words fail me to pen my disappointment with this whole "Left Behind" film escapade. I would sooner recommend the End Times thrillers "The Omega Code" and its sequel "Omega Code II: Armageddon" for more mystery, action, intrigue, and one heck of a more enjoyable viewing experience. | | |  | To be fair I'd give it a 3... Jan 11, 2007 |
I own the movie and would like to see the second one but if it was exactly like the book I'd give it a 5.
If you've only seen the movie then I highly suggest reading the actual series. It can be a life changing thing to read all 13 or 14 books in the set. It's a fantastic motivation to renew my beliefs that's for sure.
I bought the movie because I loved the book and own the entire set. If I had to do it again I'm sure I'd still buy the movie. It strays just a little too much for me so I'll give it a 3 but it's a good attempt. | | | | Awesome Dec 25, 2006 |
| This is a great movie for youth groups or the family. Very entertaining with some pretty good acting and an awesome message. | | | Write your own review about Left Behind I/(The Movie)
