Note: My review is based on the story through the film, not by reading the book.
DH and I received this movie via Netflix and when it arrived neither of us remembered ordering it. DH assumes that perhaps it was a “suggestion” from other movies we chose. It was a really interesting film that causes one to think.
I am a little caught, because for an idea of a story it is interesting and does keep a captive audience. The acting was fairly good although the green screen and some scenes could have been much better. Finishing the film, DH and I discussed the film and the ideas within a bit, and although they are likable, it is a little uncomfortable, because they seem to be those ideas in disguise that pull you away from the whole truth while arguing that they are harmless to what you know to be truth.
Overall, good evening watch, but not a keeper for me. I'm not sure that I would recommend it, but be your own guide. Just remember Jesus Christ gave us truth and a handbook to explain it all.
I've hit a low point in my reading life.
I cannot believe that I not only started,
but actually read to completion this
terrible book. I found it “in the
wild” and felt obligated to read it.
I'm not sure whether
this is supposed to be fiction or
nonfiction, but, whatever it is,
it was strange and poorly written.
It's not good enough to be a good adventure story, though the idea is good; and not good enough to be a good spiritual self-help kind of a book either... But it gave me something
As a work of fiction, it is terrible book, cliche characters, forced drama and suspense, lack of penmanship in describing dynamics (hence resorting to outright naming them with overt adjectives). As a non-fiction self-helpy psychology book (which it so tries to be) it is nothing more than psudo-scientific, psudo-profound, new-age tale of spirituality.
