"Trumpets Sound" (the first episode) is two hours of:
- Wretched writing.
- Amateurish acting.
- One nausea-inducing shakycam shot after another.
- Endless clips from years-old footage of famous earthquakes, tornadoes and hurricanes that everyone's seen a dozen times.
That pretty much covers it.

shareI agree with you completely BWiggins. I had looked forward to this -- and it was nothing but a complete mess! I gave up after an hour and will not bother with watching part 2.
shareAn hour? You beat me :) I could barely last 10 minutes. Without the shaky cam, I probably could have lasted a bit longer.

I agree with everything bwiggins-1 said.
I was also irritated by the bizarre "interpretations" of selected verses from Revelation and other prophecies. For example, saying that the "7-headed beast" is a weird bioengineered virus (7HC) with seven "heads"... ridiculous!
My friend, who is not a Christian and has minimal familiarity with the book of Revelation, certainly got a very skewed vision of what's actually in that book, which is highly symbolic and metaphorical. She kept asking me, "Why is this being shown on History channel?"
I will watch Part 2 just to see how much more laughably absurd it will get...
- One nausea-inducing shakycam shot after another.
Couldn't have said it better myself! Very disappointing.
