It was basically a movie of several families fighting and screaming at each other until suddenly the rapture and then the ones that are left scream at themselves.

He should have read the Bible. The Bible teaches that all see Christ when He comes. The dead in Christ shall rise. His end contradicted the truth. People need the truth when those movies present an opportunity to Salvation.
The ending was not in line with scripture.. The Bible states we are not to add or take away from what it says.
1 Thessalonians 4:16 - For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Revelations 1:7 Behold, He cometh with clouds, and every eye shall see Him, and they also who pierced Him; and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so. Amen.
Isaiah 40:5 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Matthew 24:30 And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.

This movie was biblically based centering around the question of salvation and will a person be ready when Jesus comes back known as the Rapture. Some of the acting was unbelievable but some of the acting was good. The families presented have problems, the church has problems, the world has problems but it is all suddenly over when the Rapture occurs. Overall I think it's a great movie.

I don't know what got me to watching this movie, but I have to say that even though it's production value was low, it was less than 15 minutes into the movie before I knew it was going to be bad
1. Too many characters--I don't care about any of these characters. I thought it might follow two or three people as they get ready for church and someone is inevitably left behind
2. Dialogue is terrible--I've known church folk but it sounds like they had AI listen to people in church and regurgitate it without feeling
3. It feels long--the reason it feels long is because you're not really invested in any of the characters in the film and you're just waiting for the Rapture
4. It's sudden ending--I thought that we were going to watch people struggle with their faith after the Rapture, but the church scene at the end is the way people picture hell in the Bible. Anguish without the flames. The clothes are left there and when you cut to the "news" it's obviously green screen and actors
5. Timing of the Rapture--Apparently the Rapture is supposed to happen instantaneously but one anchor is Raptured while reporting ON the Rapture.
Also, there are only two characters that are connected to each other. I would've liked to see something connecting them
Such as
The pregnant woman underwater with her bills and the woman who just lost a child talking on the phone and trying to reassure her that it's hard but she also knows how it is to have a miscarriage then encourage her to go to church and say "I also wish MY HUSBAND would go with me" then have him say "I gotta work Sundays to pay these BILLS"
Just an example to tie the characters together.
Anyway, watch at your own peril and if you play a drinking game, watch it first so you know what keywords or tropes to avoid.

This movie reminds me of Crash movie where the focus is on multiple people. In this movie It's not about racism, instead it's about cognitive dissonance and fear propaganda or what I like to call it Propaganfear.
I watch these movies to get a good laugh. SMR is a fear based movie. They use violence and fear tactics to make you go to church and tithe 10% to the pastor. (Do pastors tithe?)
This movie is about a few people being sad because they don't go to church. It's very silly, dumb and embarrassing. Iunno why this type of behaviour is not listed in the DSM.
It's even funnier, Debo shows up and talks and tries to scare people into going to church, while he wears the "mark of the beast" on his shirt. This is comical. All characters in this movie are dumb, and it's sad because characters like me do not exist in the movie. I would have told them the truth about this Christian hash.
In addition, the acting was horrible. Only Debo had skill.
Watch this movie for a good laugh. It's embarrassing. If you are insecure and can be easily manipulated then don't watch this because the propaganfear in this one is strong.

It's impossible to get over the horrible acting in this movie. Seriously it's laughable. The rapture is no laughing matter.
I'm grateful to see a film where Christians can exemplify Christ! People are being critical of acting not realizing the message is to get "right with Christ before it's too late! I love that we see real emotions from real lives! This movie is one to save and show the family. Most people who are critical of this movie aren't believers they are just here to be negative about a film on Christ Return. This movie leaves you thinking about yourself. Watch this with an OPEN heart! If you're looking to be critical watch something else and if you're open to see real conversation from real people then you will enjoy this movie!

This movie is anything but biblical although the rapture event is true what was portrayed was a works salvation theology the preacher left behind says "if you live like like hell then hell is where you want to go" it paints a false narrative that what we do affects salvation and it removes the biblical truth that nothing you do saves you only by what Christ has done his finished work on the cross are we saved

I just knew a movie about the Rapture would be great. Wrong! The acting was so horrible. I attempted to watch it and only got a third of the way before I turned it off. Six months later, I tried again. This time I made it a little over half way before I threw in the towel. Between the bad acting & the yelling & arguing there is no way I could ever sit through the entire show. It made me a nervous wreak , feeling like I was stuck in the middle of all that fighting. Obviously ,This must be a church production, because these people are most definitely NOT actors. It could have been a great movie...with a different cast..
In reading some of the reviews, I see flaws in their thinking. Such as the one saying the woman who had a miscarriage is not talking on the phone, but with her husband. Also, salvation, true you can not earn it, or do it on your own, but it is a choice. "You cannot serve to masters, for you will love the one and hate the other. It is either Christ or Satan. You either choose Christ or your own desires, which is a vote for Satan. It is true Christ paid the price for man's sins, but not all will be saved. It is like a man in the desert dying of thrist. Another man is holding out water to him. Just because water is offered does mean the man will live. The man must choose to take the water and make it part of himself to live. Your choose will decide where you will go heaven or hell. This is what the movie is showing. People are so wrapped up in their lives and leaving out Christ. Living a misconception of salvation. Even pastors who knew God's message ignored it until it was to late. The movie does drag a bit in trying to show this. The ending is dramatic and gripping; dripping with truth. To get the full message with the right context one needs to pay attention. The acting and the movie is good. The message is strong; listen to it with an open heart.
