The Pilgrim's Progress

I was looking forward to this movie as a christian and also a keen John Bunyan reader how ever I had to stop watching this as it is not faithful to the book which really does not need additions like a modern story plot, like this movie adds. This is the type of movie that needs a trilogy and alot more care and effort in giving the viewer its proper Godly message. It was not so much the animation and its quality as that was pretty impressive for the budget and 3d animation is technically the hardest of visual crafts to master. What really was a negative for me was the abreviation of the story. Pilgrims progress is epic and really cant be abreviated into one film like all modern films have done. 5 out of ten and mainly those stars are for the effort in the animation.

I was very touched by the message It brings to our hearts. I read the book and could say this film reveals exactly and with many details, what the author wanted his readers to understand and believe.

Unlike most movies, this is all about the story and not the production. The story is a great classic about the Christian spiritual path, and this version is done in a way that the message is clear to all ages. I really enjoyed it.

When you have stopped viewing life way beyond the physical, only then can you truly understand the messages relayed in this movie. Thank you for this as it will continue to be an inspiration to many.

He who has ears let him hear what the Spirit is saying.

I thank God for you, John Bunyan.

i will gladly recommend this.

Yep - I'm a Christian and have long enjoyed spiritual things and the original book for some time. So yes, I am this movie's target audience.

With that in mind, I thought it was on the whole, faithfully done. We've been reading Dangerous Journey, which is the children's book abridged version with my young children (7, 8, and 5) and they enjoyed seeing the book in an animated format.

The animation wasn't Pixar level, but I didn't expect it to be. It is a crowd funded labor of love, it's not created by a big budget graphics studio. But it wasn't so bad that I found myself distracted. It was fine.

On the whole we found ourselves encouraged and inspired and it opened up some good dialogue with my children. I'm glad I saw it and we'd watch it again.
