Disciples in the Moonlight

Before anyone thinks I am anti-Christian when they read my review, I can say I am the most devout Christian of the faith. However, filmmakers are not making films that truly celebrate Christianity to the level it deserves. Most of the actors were believable but the story became more and more disinteresting. Most of the world does not hate Christianity. The problem is the hypocrites. Billy Graham was the true example of a faithful Christian but his son Franklin is a hypocrite. Dr. Graham spoke repeatedly about Franklin's struggles to actually practice what he preached but was never a faithful practicing Christian. Unfortunately, there was no point to this movie. A wasted effort.

I love movies that have action and are suspenseful and this movie produced both. The acting was quality and the message was over the top. I have to say if anyone has given this a low rating, it's definitely because they have a problem with "Christian" movies in general. The story line was believable especially in the times we're living in. I highly recommend that everyone sees this movie. Disciples in the moonlight did not disappoint and you will leave the movie like we did, wondering how long we have before this could very well be a reality...Good job cast...Good job producers, you came up with a movie that's original!

I wanted to like this and decided to ignore the many bad reviews. The idea that Christianity may someday be outlawed is not far-fetched in today's world and all over the world people are being policed for their viewpoints and speech so the basis for this movie is solid. Problem is the writing and directing are a huge letdown. This movie is more than 2 hours long and doesn't really get going in any type of action till about 1 hour and 16 minutes in. That first hour is hard to get through and I struggled to stay awake. The people who made this knew how to bring on the emotions but there isn't much in the way of thrills, suspense or action considering it's about a group of people risking their lives to get bibles across state lines. I see the effort was there but ultimately it's a failure as a compelling movie. The 4 stars is being kind of generous.

There's obviously someone being paid or who has a stake in this film giving the rave 10 star reviews because the film is unfortunately worthless... which is putting it nicely. The plot initially sounds interesting but once you actually watch the movie you realize most of the scenes are quite predictable with no real twist or surprises with the exception of the ending The script appears to be written by someone who's very arrogant and conceited. What surprises me most about this film is it's cast of Myles Clohessy and Baylee Toney. Primarily because both engaged in adultery with each other in real life (while Myles was still married to his now ex-wife Jhessica A. And were supposed to believe they're truly trying to ensure the bible lives on? Do they even know what the bible says about committing adultery?

I liked this movie so much more than I was expecting--beautifully shot, likable characters, and lots of surprises! I saw some say that this is an anti-american film and that couldn't be further from the truth. It's a What If scenario of events that are actually happening in other countries right now. People need to wake up and stop thinking "oh that would never happen in America." The film is asking "what would YOU do IF this was happening?" I get it, it makes people uncomfortable but not all Faith based films are "feel good" films, they're about asking hard questions about ourselves. See it before you judge it!
