I ordered this and I'm glad that I did. I think it is a pretty good(though not great) retelling of the Christian Classic. There were a couple times that I couldn't make out the name of characters that were encountered,and I think the film should have explained as the book did, that as Pilgrims get back onto the right path and get closer to the Celestial City/Heaven,their strength returns. It would explain how one can carry-on when just moments ago,Christian was totally weak from exhaustion!

The trials and characters encountered along the way are thought-provoking. Very nice looking film,as well,and a few good special effects.I loved the part with the valley of the shadow of death.

Yeah, I just went back and saw the trailer. To be honest, the trailer did not do the film justice. But, let's be fair, most trailers do do their films justice. They just do not make trailers like they used to. The film industry should go back to the seventies when trailers were fun to watch.

Anyway, see the feature. It's actually a good entertainment and with the added bonus of a message.

Live Long and Prosper!
