“It would have been much more satisfying to me if the theater caught on fire about 70 minutes into the movie.”
LOL! Trust me, though, I’ve been there, and it’s not that entertaining, you just wind up having to leave early then smelling like smoke for a couple weeks. Then again, that was during Raiders of the Lost Ark, and I doubt that there was really any way you could improve that movie.
I saw this on Friday, twice. (Two different groups of friends.)
Although the religious theme exists throughout the movie, it is not heavy-handed, pretentious or in-your-face. Some people will not even know it’s there. Very skillfully done and much more dramatic than I was expecting.
For a refreshing change, the ‘faithful’ characters were always portrayed positively while non-believers were loved and respected, but seemed to be almost pitiable and empty.
Not at all what you would expect from Hollywood.
