I am Astonished!!! This is definitely meant to be watched parabolically (spiritually); it's worth the effort to attempt to look beyond the "flesh and blood" meaning of the film. It actually goes even deeper than it actually goes. I've been having many of these revelations for years now (via studying world religions, spirituality, quantum physics and many "self-help" works in juxtaposition to my own life experiences, trying to find common threads) and I was troubled, in the beginning. I have such a feeling of validation from watching this film. I think there will be others that have the same reaction; and some who won't. It may take a few viewings for some and others may get it right away, either way, it's something everyone can benefit from seeing. I believe that the truth ultimately comes to us from God and not from "flesh and blood," as it did with Simon Peter, but "the Lord contrived all things symbolically and by a dispensation toward men, for their conversion and salvation" - Acts of John 102; i.e. These symbols (like this film) are created by God in order to pave the way (as did John the Baptist) for the coming of the Lord (the word of God).

This was an amazing film which I will watch over and over. I turned the captions on so I could read along with the narration. So beautifully explained the mysteries of the Bible and how we can fill in the blanks from the Apocrypha. Such a faith affirming piece of art that I believe everyone should see, believers and nonbelievers alike. Don't let the devil talk you out of watching this film because a bunch of whiners don't like the narration. The message is so powerful and you will not regret spending the time on this film. The time to view and share is now, not tomorrow, not in a week. When you watch it in the natural, you'll discover tools to "see it" with spiritual eyes and bring a higher meaning to all scripture, both cannon and apocrypha alike. You won't regret it. Your challenge is to find additional triune parables in the scriptures using tools you learn in this film.

So let down. This proved to be the worst narration of any documentary I've ever seen, which is SUCH a shame. I'm sure the content is good, the problem is that his voice relays as if on +2 in a vocal speed setting. After awhile it's as bad as the teacher in the Charlie Brown movies and completely ruins the movie. If he would simply relax and slow it down it would be wonderful if not profound! Rather speed-reading through a script aloud, in a monotone voice, ruined it completely. I had to turn it off 1/3 through! Am I alone in this take? Bummed.
Forgive me Jesus-I really don't mean to bash this guy, but it's truly almost comical that they'd even consider this a finished product to share with the world. Such that can't be taken in affectively.

The content of this documentary is great IF YOU CAN GET PAST THE NARRATOR'S VOICE!!! The whole thing really should be redone with a new narrator-someone that doesn't sound like he's speaking from a written manuscript. He's too fast and there's no nice flow to it or any "feeling" to the speaking! There are no inflections in his voice at all. It's just so, so terribly difficult to listen to! Given that it is a documentary, the voice and narration ARE the most important things!! It is supposed to draw your audience into the subject matter, not make it a struggle to listen to! It's just too hard to get past the voice to comprehend what it's truly about and that is such an incredibly huge error in judgement that it was not recognized!

This style of pausing at awkward, unnatural places, makes it nearly impossible to get through the show or even digest what is being said. I can't say where this style originated or why but I have noticed it before, particularly in younger folks. It would be interesting to watch someone who talks using this style, actually read a well-written story with commas at natural places.
I have no idea whether the show is good or bad. There are so many competing shows on this topic and the fact that those of us who attempted to watch this one, likely have a genuine interest, makes the preventative style of delivery, an awful shame.

Old gnostic heresy, new outfit. Scholars have disproven the authenticity of the gnostic gospels long ago. They're second century fabrications, made long after the apostles were dead.
I think it's funny that this man wants us to abandon what institutions and Christendom has preserved directly from the apostles & taught us for the past two millennia, but trust and believe in his personal interpretation 2000 years removed from Christ's life. A bit hypocritical, no?
I don't have much else to say just typing listen to meet the minimum characters required for this review. Thanks for reading and God bless you.
