    Cage Left Behind by good movies

    Was it the money? Did he owe someone a favour? Cage why are you in this terrible movie ? Left Behind is even worse than the Kirk Cameron version ,which also sucked. The book I am sure is better, since many have read it. This movie is a career killer ...it is sad to see Cage left behind by Hollywood. The acting is bad , Cage tries hard to make work out of a script that was seemingly penned by 8 year old's . I mean the dialogue is terrible. Why waste your money making a film that is just bad. Cage needs to really rethink his career . Honestly I felt ashamed for Nick . Wild at Heart , Leaving Las Vegas, and Oscar winner... My God man have you no self respect? Nick you are better than this.

    Snakes on a plane - Jesus edition

    This was the worst movie I have ever seen. It is clearly destined to go straight to day time television. From the start the movies direction, plot, acting and music all give the impression of a day time drama but much much worse.

    I don't hate the premise of the movie, it's just like any other sci-fi fiction. However, this movie with it's bad acting and direction make it a complete and utter flop. Too much emphasis is placed on the religious aspects of this story making it feel like a veritable propaganda flick, ruining all chances of immersing in the story-line.

    Do not waste your money on such a poorly produced movie. Religious or not, you will walk out of the theatre with nothing but regrets.

    Can I select zero stars?

    Its about a bizarre disappearance of millions of people.

    Oh no, wait, it's about Nicolas Cage landing a plane.

    Meh.

    Horrible, it does not get any better

    Do not sit through this.

    You hope it becomes better, but it never does.

    There is no actual plot or ending. If you are in it for Nicholas Cage or airplanes, it will assault all you know of them.

    This is my first review, I had to get an account to verbalize how horrible this was, it just leaves you grasping at straws why you watched this and anything good there was in the movie is not enough when you reach the end.

    I have no idea why we continued to watch, it was insulting and base when it came to the end. The beginning starts with the lead female getting to up in Christian grills. It was a bit unnecessary, but it serves as a HA! Told you so moment at the end when it turned out that this was a rapture film. Which is not bad, but there is just nothing to it. The lead females role is grating and irritating by most peoples standard, she did not have to be a Christian basher for this to be apparent.

    I want my money back

    This movie was simply AWFUL. Really, really bad. And to those who are going to argue that the reason why this movie is rated so low is because people are becoming "anti- Christian", NO. The acting was terrible, the script was horrendous, seriously. A group of high school kids in drama club could do better. It was deathly boring, i thought I was in there for more than three hours.

    Worst of all is the message its trying to send. Isn't it curious that the movie tried so hard to portray all of those that were left as bad messed up people? So is that supposed to mean that those who don't believe in the Christian God are all either cheaters, flirts, gamblers, thieves, drug addicts and just generally messed up? Because that's what I saw. Don't think I wouldn't catch that. I get that its a Christian movie but its still a pretty offensive way of showing off your faith.

    Even in the Philippines, which is predominantly made up of believers, people in the theatre couldn't help but laugh at how absolutely ridiculous everything was. Worst movie EVER

The campaign received 80,699.00 USD out of the half a million asked. The last update of the project was in May 7, 2015.
