I'm not wasting my time on it. It doesn't really look that great to me (and not just from a Christian point of view).
I wish they came out with medieval fantasy films (like Lord of the Rings) more often. And wish Peter Jackson would just dadlem make "The Hobbit" and forget about "The Lovely Bones" remake. pff
I went to see it today too. Almost packed fully. I heard it was just all talk, talk, talk, talk and I thought I would've been sitting there bored the entire time but... it was a 2 and a half film that felt like an hour, maybe an hour and a half. It was really interesting to watch too. I haven't read the book or anything so this whole thing was new to me so... I don't know what the views are of people who've read to book. I enjoyed every minute .
To anyone who is considering not watching this movie due to some less than flattering reviews, all I'm going to say is:
I went to see this at 10:15 this morning. It was basically sold out. The movie went on for about two hours and twenty minutes.
No one left their seats the entire time! No one made any noise! No one was fidgeting in their seats! I think that says a lot!
So don't hesitate to go see it. It was Good. How could it not be? Ron Howard and Tom Hanks...........
This sounds great! I've stated many times that I was excited about this movie, mainly because it was the first novel that I read all the way through in a long time!
I plan on seeing it this weekend. Ron Howard is a great film maker, and a lot of people accuse him of tackling "safe" projects. So what's the big deal with him taking this? This is not safe!
The facts in the book are taken by some to be the end all, but actually, like with most historical facts that are based in religion it is still left to interpretation.
I loved the book because it made me think. I am an agnostic, who has experienced and immersed himself in 7 diferent religions.I came to realize many things in my personal life through those experiences, so I am not a religion basher. But I do appreciate the talk and in depth discussions that this book has caused or rather spawned.
Like I said before, at least they haven't tried to make, Angels and Demons yet! that would ignite a fire storm!
I can't wait to see this and thanks for the review Tomson!

Yes, but porn is a way of entertainment too. But that doesn't make it right. Looking at nude pictures on the internet isn't having sex, its meant for you to be entertained...right? But that still doesn't make it right.
From a Christian point of view, going to see this movie would be like going to see a rated R, nasty mouth movie with nudy shots in it. Nothing can make me a non-Christian, but being a Christian means going against things like that, no matter what its purpose is.
Do not be part of the world! That also means do not be part of discussions about it! You have more important things to consider and work on, the work of the Lord!
This topic is obviously not one that you would want to be involved in so just let it run the course.
Keep the faith!

Doesn't make it wrong!
If God didn't want us looking at naked bodies, he wouldn't have made them so attractive.

True, but if you aren't loyal enough to only look at the one you are married to, not the one you are dating, and you don't love the girl friend you are going out enough to save yourself to marriage, then you deserve to have your eyes ripped out.

By whom? By the kind, loving and forgiving God we all read about in the New Testament?
Look, entertainment is subjective and always will be.That's why so many great, original ideas are overlooked! the moment that someone strikes gold with an origial idea, like QT, the entertainment world flocks! The trick is to write a story that appeals on levels that most people don't want to venture. Suicide for instance.
