Disciples in the Moonlight

Barring The Emoji Movie, this is the worst thing I've seen in a theater.

Brett Varvel cannot act, always making the same constipated expression regardless of the emotion he's supposed to convey. The directing feels like a sitcom, with repetitive shot reverse shots and the same establishing shots used repeatedly across four bland, suburban sets. Occasionally, when the Christians are evading the evil secular government, we're treated to shadowy shots of forests and fields so dark you can't tell who's who or where they're going. The editing is a mix of mind-numbingly simple sequencing and incoherent transitions, all overseen by the leading actor himself, which at least makes it clear who to laugh at. Even if you believe being an American Christian makes you an oppressed minority, you'll have a hard time taking any of this corny film seriously.

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!

This felt like a Christian hater movie. This would NEVER happen nor would real christian people allow this. This was absolutely terrible. A whole world hating the Bible then killing those who wanted to share the real Bible not the one they changed and took out so much information. I will never watch a movie from this director. Fake Christian if they claim they are for GOD. Again terrible movie.at the very end was they ONLY good thing about the movie. Smart and outsmarted the devil . The black guy was one of the good guys that made it. But the killing in this movie had no real grounds . Also was low budget made. It was difficult to keep Interest and the movie glitched a few times.

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?

The same people who like to censor, ban, and burn all kinds of books they don't like are now producing self-indulgent fantasy propaganda where they are the victims of actions they do to others in real life. And while it promotes itself as a "Christian story," this doesn't have anything to do with Christianity or the actual teachings of Jesus. This was made following a twisted idea of religiosity tied to political groups that continues to sell the idea to evangelicals that they are persecuted martyrs in order to create among them this sense of fear and entitlement to discriminate and persecute others that are not evangelicals, the same way they think they are treated. The hypocrisy is astounding.

As for the technical aspect, the "movie" is laughable but without being funny. It looks horrible, as if it was made by people who knew nothing about directing, lighting, acting, or editing and only had the concern, not to make anything of artistic value, but to spread their intended propaganda to justify the money they received from their donor and to grift a few bucks from a few evangelicals.
