I actually really liked it


I sometimes flip through movie channels late at night and end up watching anything that looks interesting (700 channels and I'm reduced to something I've never heard of that 'might' be interesting, go figure), but I mostly end up watching crap like One Of Them or, God forbid, Bloodrayne *shudders* This movie I actually liked quite a bit. It did keep me wondering up until they went to the garage place if Brandon might be real or not. If he's real, then it's the story of the second coming of the Messiah. If not, then it's something much darker. I was always curious if they would eventually discover who he really was in a flash of light and realize that they had revoked the Messiah. I'm happy to find a movie that actually made me wonder and wasn't cliched through the roof.
Randy Travis' acting was marvelous. When I first saw his name in the credits at the beginning, I was like 'Oh God, this movie's gonna suck major, we all know most singers can't act.' Much to my surprise, he was great in his role and should be cast in more roles. Certainly not a handsome man, but he's obviously very talented in many areas.
The only thing I really hated about this film was the CGI. Other than that, I loved it!

i decided to watch this based on your review. i too search at night for something to watch. all of the other reviews were a bit convoluted to say the least. after reading yours i said what the hell. it wasnt the best movie i've ever seen, it wasnt the worst either, but i really think that your review was spot on. if i am ever searching for something to watch in my library of 1000 movies, 700 channels, and still cant find anything, i will look for more of your insights on the boards of imdb on the "you-tube machine".

thank you.

I'm guessing you haven't read the book which I hear was much different from the movie and the people that did read hated it because of that. I, however, have not read the book which is why I too loved it!!
