Being a huge fan of this incredible series of Last Day Films, AND of Cloud Ten Pictures, I was anxious to see the next installment, following up the action-packed, suspenseful, previous films. In comparison to parts 2 and 3, this movie seemed out of place. It did not have the expected suspense and action we have come to expect, and it seemed to fall just a little short as a court-room drama. But as a movie that stands alone, not to be compared, I can honestly say it was still a good film. The plot was interesting, and the characters were true to themselves. After being led to believe thet Helen Hannah died in the third film, I was confused when I saw the previews of this one, and she was the main charactor again. But after watching this one, the explanation of her being alive was very acceptable, and a pleasant suprize.
Leigh Lewis does an OUTSTANDING job as Helen, and we have grown to LOVE this character, and no one can replace the sinister face of Nick Mancuso as the antichrist. Corbin Bernsen reminded me of William Shatner, a tad TOO dramatic, but yet, acceptable in the role as Mitch, the reluctant lawyer. And I must say, I have always been an admirer of Mr.T, and knowing about his real life Christianity has caused me to respect him more, but his acting skills are weak. He has only mastered ONE style and that style is seen in every film he does. Watching him BARK out his lines without EVER changing his facial expressions, got a little old after the first few minutes. All in all, it was a very good film with a POWER-PACKED message. Cloud Ten Pictures have set the standard for Christian films, that none have been able to top. Hollywood WILL be feeling the effects. if this series continues with another sequel, I can only hope it returns to the same action and suspense we have come to expect from the 2nd and 3rd parts.
Thank you Cloud Ten, for still giving us quality films we can watch, and enjoy, and share with our friends. I remain faithful and loyal.
