I was initially very impressed with Kevin Sorbo's clever performance in the opening scene. I saw that Dallas Jenkins performed part of the soundtrack, but I don't even remember the music. The cinematography was decent, although I was frustrated throughout the movie at not being able to figure out where it was filmed - until the credits. So that was well-done.

This movie escaped my notice until I got a text announcing a re-release in theaters, this week. OK, I wanted to check it out and support this director's work. After having watched The Chosen series for years, I can appreciate Dallas's vision for film-making, and I saw some of his handiwork in this production. He has a heart for God and he puts his talents to work to make a quality product.

I noticed some reviews from people who seem to be angry with God and feel that the best way to get back at Him is to make strongly worded comments on the interwebs.

God is not your enemy.

I hate superlatives and I'm not giving this 10 stars, because it isn't quite that great, but after watching this, I found actual evidence that my attitude toward marriage had changed.

I have to watch this again.

I never thought that I would be able to make such a quick assessment of a new talent. I saw only about 10 seconds of this show, tonight, and I was able to determine for all time that this individual does not deserve my time.

Too many modern comedians feel that vulgar, abusive language is the only way to be successful. Actually, it is simply a substitute for having something intelligent or witty to say. Well, I don't need this and I know many others who don't want to be subjected to such abuse.

George Lopez used 4-letter words to attack and demean an innocent woman. So much for civil discourse in the free market of ideas.

Along with all the other ripoffs mentioned, I'd like to add Red October and Firefly to the list.

I know that there are valid reasons to copy a working formula, but to simply rip off random elements of several different creative works and blend them together into a single composite work, and do it successfully, requires true genius. Here, in a single movie, a new generation of TV viewers can be brought up to speed on all that Sci-Fi-dom has to offer! Of course, there is a fine line between genius and insanity....

Honestly, the movie is not the worst I've ever seen. It's just so sad that no one, today can come up with original material.
