      Audience Member An interesting and low budget film about possible future events? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Story: 4/5 This part of the movie is hard to score. On the one hand, it kept me glued to my seat the entire time, which is something no movie has done since I saw "The Avengers" in 3-D last summer. However, I'm not really sure that the "end times" are going to happen like this; the whole theme seemed more like a SyFy channel telefilm than a Christian flick. It does serve as a bit of a parable nonetheless, but don't go into this expecting the works of Jenkins and LaHaye. Production Values: 5/5 Often, Christian-themed movies suffer from a low budget, which usually turns off some viewers. However, poor special effects can be overpowered by a compelling story, as was the case with "The Witches of Oz," which kept me up past midnight last August to see how it ended. The good news about Revelation is that its production values match the grip of the plot. Though Apocalypse, the first movie in the series, suffered from a eighties, made-for-TV-quality feel, this one seriously improves on that. Moral Content: 2.5/5 If you thought Apocalypse was freaky, wait until you see this. The "violence" the MPAA warned about includes everything from shootouts to an arson attempt to cruelty to an innocent animal to a guy slicing his bare chest with a conch shell to even a near beheading. None of it is graphic, but there is some blood, and all of it is quite creepy, as are some nonviolent scenes. Elsewhere, there is a "bombshell" female character who is seen wearing a bare-midriff top, and a guy makes lecherous taunts at her. There is also one mild profanity. Though I feel that the rating is right, I would make the content advisory "violence, frightening sequences, brief language, and occasional off-color dialogue". Conclusion: When I randomly decided to see "The Great Buck Howard" a few years ago, my thoughts as the credits rolled were, "I've never seen anything like that!" I hadn't felt like that since...until tonight, when I watched "Revelation". I'm not sure that it would exactly qualify as a Christian movie; though it has Biblical elements, so do some secular films, such as Knowing and the first Mission: Impossible. Still, for those who enjoy a well-made and gripping, if strange, celluloid yarn, this is for you. Score: 3.75/5 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member its good true and its going to be here fast Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member the 2nd of 4 in this series, takes place where apocalypse ends. Following it own story somewhat, but has some of the same chacters. Revelation is still about the great tirbutaltion. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Great Great Movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Revelation is one of the more gripping, sometimes frightening, entries into the genre of Christian sci-fi.
