Customer Reviews of The Rapture
Original, Daring Work. "The Rapture" is one of those few films that dares to go where most movies are afraid to go to. Michael Tolkin here displays a brilliance for screenwriting. He explores a topic that many believe in and others don't. I am so tired of some directors afraid to touch subjects like religion. Here, Tolkin creates an intriguing, interesting, deeply powerful film about the belief in the second coming of Christ. This movie appreciates Biblical scripture more than Martin Scorsese's "The Last Temptation Of Christ." This is also the closest film that I think, shows what it would really be like if the book of Revelation is indeed, the truth. There are powerful and stunning moments. The cinematography is well-done as well the writing and acting. This is a thinking person's film. Those who appreciate creativity and intelligence in a film should see it. Sure, it gets a little slow at times, but it's still a good, original, and daring piece of film.
The Rapture- - - A hard movie to review.....
How do I review this movie? Well lets start by saying that I overall liked The Rapture, but I still don't understand the whole concept either. The Movie deals with Mimi Rogers caracter Sharon, a telephone operator by day, swinger by night. After fealing (the emptyness) in her heart Sharon begins to look for something else, in her life, and that something happens to be a new kindled love with God. And then the movie really starts to shake things up. Sharon's husband is murdered by a disgruntled employee(this scene is really hard to watch), and then she thinks God is telling her to take her child out in to the desert and wait for the second coming of Christ. The movie ends with a real negative aspect on God and the Church, that I really don't understand, or mabey I don't want to understand. Whatever the case may be, The Rapture leaves you with a sence to depression, and hurt fellings for the caracters, and your self for years to come.
Why is this movie not on DVD?
One of the most powerful movies I have ever seen and to think Mimi Rogers didn't become a Big Star after this. She didnt even get a nomination but that tells you a lot about the Academy. Her performance outweighs anything Julia Roberts or Gweneth Paltrow has ever done.
This movie is not just about religion but being lost in a world that's not always kind.
Check it out.
