I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
I'll tell you why so serious
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Anyone who praises this movie is lying. The acting, the cinematography, the dialogue, the pacing, everything is amateurish and without any form of suspense or drama. I know that some people wants this to be a masterpiece, because of its very obviously Christian message, but that does not redeem anything! And the acting... Chuck Carrington was passable, Hilarie Burton sleepwalked her way through it, and Malcolm McDowell was the same bug eyed maniac he's been playing the last twenty years. The only one who came out of this alive was Pat Hingle, I've always loved that guy.Avoid at all costs, unless you're a die-hard Christian with low standards.
Got this from Netflix the other night to watch as a family.We were totally surprised to find something we could all watch.Best McDowell performance in a long time. Suspenseful... well shot...great character actors too.It was funny because I couldn't place on of The List members and just saw that he was Tom Cruise's father from Risky Business.Don't know why there are so many anti-Christian comments but this was a good film.And as far as it not being Southern... that is crazy and we live in NC. Never really heard of Hilarie Burton before but she stood out for us as did Will Patton.
I had the misfortune of seeing this movie while on vacation. It was about the worst movie I've ever seen.While as an atheist, I found the religion stuff to be over the top, that isn't the problem. If you want to see a good movie with religion in it, check out Frailty.My problem was with the story/plot, acting, and direction. Visually, it felt like I was watching a low budget TV movie (was it?). The acting was not so bad as to be funny, it was just totally uninspired. The main issue was the story. When the movie ended, I thought I missed something. NOTHING happened, except ...SPOILER ALERT other than the main character finding his faith, nothing happened. And if the movie is just about somebody re-enforcing his faith, then way have a the whole weird story. I just don't get it.
This movie was a disappointment. VERY bad acting on the part of most all the actors, especially the lead male young character. McDonald wasn't that good either. Very boring most of the way through. Although I liked the spiritual aspect, I figured out the plot ending about half way through; being that prayer was the answer. That scene in the church when he was talking about his great, great, great grandfather gave that away.Overall, a waste of time except for the spiritual message which I'd always support. I'd just rather see it in a different venue than a low-budget drama.
