The Perfect Stranger

I truly enjoyed the book by David Gregory and when I heard about the movie I knew I had to see it.

I was not disappointed. The filmmakers were true to the story line and the thought processes of the author.

I recommend this film highly to anyone who finds it in a theater near them. As a lower budget film, the film itself is a bit grainy or choppy in parts; however, the story line and the acting make up for anything the filmmakers lacked in budget.

The interaction between the two main characters was very intense and believable. The few subtle changes from the book to the screen went very well and the finale made the film!

It doesn't take long to be convinced that Jesus really is sitting at that table across from Nikki. I wanted to be her ! He answered her questions with love, patience and knowledge. It confirmed everything and more that I believe every day about the pure love of God and the saving grace of Jesus Christ. This movie easily appeals to believers and non believers alike. It addresses issues that aren't always easy to understand or agree with. It is not offensive. Watching this movie is a life changing experience! It is impossible to think of anything else while sitting in the theater, because you are so drawn in to the discussion and can't wait to hear more! The information is backed by accurate scriptural references without being preachy.

The time flies by with ease, and suddenly you're walking out of the theater with a sense of being loved like never before!

I thought this was a wonderful film! I love how it portrayed Christ - as a friend we could have dinner with one night. I liked all the questions that were asked during the dinner because it was realistic. If I had dinner with Christ I would have so many questions and things I would want to know about. I have been a Christian for many years and I love that this movie answered questions that I still had. Its a very honest and real movie dealing with topics we all wonder about. I especially love the ending - it gave me chills. It puts life into perspective and shows us how great God's love is for all of us. If you haven't seen this movie you should go see it - It could change your life forever!!

My daughter wanted me to watch The Perfect Stranger with her. I really didn't feel interested in watching a movie that night, but she insisted and I acquiesced and settled in for a night of real surprise and warmth. I have since seen Another Perfect Stranger. These movies deliver such a strong and true message about God and his plan for us in such a warm way. In this movie, Jefferson Moore presents God's perfect plan as I believe God would have it presented; gently, without pressure, force or gimmicks, and encompassed in love and logic. I now own the movies and offer to lend them to others. I also look forward to seeing them again . . . and again . . .

I was quite surprised to find that my attention did not fade even though the movie virtually takes place in a single setting. The acting was very believable. I could totally imagine myself making the same faces if I was getting the same answers to my questions. The Perfect Stranger also gives an accurate script of what I would suspect Jesus to say to someone in the present day. I really like how the skepticism did not stop after one answer, which made the emotions of anger and disbelief accurate. Jesus is also not played off as some weird guru to patronize. The character of Jesus in the movie does not waver in his questions. The corniness was also NOT found in this movie that would be expected in most Christian movies. A wide variety of common doubts were truthfully answered.
