I just watched the first two episodes. Seems like very brave film-making to me. The messiah character is ruffling everyon'es feathers including Islam. On the other hand, it kind of reminds me of the old TV show "Kung Fu" - not that there is anything wrong with that. The writer of this review doesn't like it because...Trump. Anyone else see any of this yet? It is a 10 episode series just released on Netflix.

There is a Messiah figure to come before Christ, and the number of his name is 666.

Only watched 2 episodes so far, but he seems to be the 12th Imam / Mahdi.

Utter drivel. Par for the course when it comes to Netflix.

No mention of President Trump unless one assumes the reference to the President of the United States is our current president.

No chance this president would fall for the nonsense this character spouts. Not a snowballs chance in hell.

Looks like MUST-SEE TV -- the leftist "critics" despise it, and audience loves it, and longtime Trump buddy Mark Burnett produced it.

Reminds me of the Bruce Willis remake of Death Wish, which generated an 18%/77% critical chasm.

Your first mistake was subscribing to Nutflix, and thereby contributing to Odungo's salary. The minute I heard he was one of their new stars, I cancelled with them. The young man on the other end of the phone told me a LOT of people cancelled when that announcement came out.

BTW, that series sounds like a bunch of PC hogwash.

[There is a Messiah figure to come before Christ, and the number of his name is 666.]

Correct - though I would alter your statement slightly

“There is a anti-Messiah figure to come before Christ, and the number of his name is 666.”

Correct. This is just more incredible propaganda by the Satanic Globalists to "prepare ye the way for the Antichrist."

Obama is on the board of Netflix, which is one of the biggest money laundering scams in the world. What could go wrong?

My wife watched "The Two Popes" on Netflix, and said it was more complete garbage.

She said it was simply an attempt to humanize and endear Francis.

In the movie, the two men help each other to "forge" ahead. It depicts a Vatican Bromance. Right. The truth is, Obama, Soros, and the globalist cabal initiated a treacherous coup in the Vatican and blackmailed Benedict (according to multiple reports in the Italian press).

Not sure it’s fair, but the first thing that came to mind was “Randall Flagg” in Stephen King’s “The Stand”.

I probably shouldn’t jump to conclusions.

Very grateful we pulled the plug on the TV right before Zero was elected. If I want to be entertained I choose books or even watching dog show competitions. (at least in those the call a Bitch a Bitch).

Recently I changed my alarm clock to wake me by a radio station. Frightening to hear the lyrics in the ‘new’ Country songs. Pure programming and not for a higher purpose, either.

My refrain is, “Come quickly, Lord Jesus.”
