Incredible movie - at the beginning of the movie - I was an agnostic - fallen away Catholic - not a fan of religion - still not - believe in God - believed in Jesus Christ - but thought the resurrection and assumption into heaven was more metaphorical/spiritual body vs. physical body. Now - I believe that the Physical Jesus died and rose again not because of faith based community (upbringing - 8 years Catholic school) but because of the scientific (mostly atheistic) community and evidence presented in this movie. It's strange - it's the atheists / scientists proofs that have changed my mind about Christ's resurrection and evolution. Crick and Watson (atheists that discovered DNA) said there's no way something this complex got here because of evolution - no way - again they were atheists - that won the Nobel Prize in Genetics for their discovery of the DNA molecule - pretty smart guys - with no religious agenda - saying no way evolution explains/is responsible for/created DNA.

This movie is sooo well done... Everyone should be blessed to have this director do the movie of their life. The lead actors selected are perfect for their roles, - and interesting choices, given their prior movie roles. I believe the lead actress is truly Christian... (no one can act that good.) My wish is that she would denounce her upbringing and just admit she believes in Jesus as Lord. Honestly, I didn't think much of Lee Strobel at first. Even in the beginning, when i was reading everything apologetics, his book didnt intetest me- though it was recommended by people I respected. Later, i did read "Cold case detective" by J Warner Wallace. He seemed credible; Lee Strobel seemed full of himself. But after seeing this movie, I have the utmost respect for Lee Strobel.. The love- True love he had for his wife, and what he did with his life- even after the book. I would Highly recommend this DVD, and have bought extra copies. One complaint about the DVD is the audio level seemed low; I had to turn the volume up.. (Maybe that was unique to my DVD).. I did notice it was made in Mexico, which may or may not have had anything to do with the sound quality. It was clear, and both the sound and video quality were excellent. Buy one, then by one for your friends.. Itll change your life.Read full review

It always amazes me how positively sure people are that Jesus was just a good guy. If that's all he was than he was a big fool. In this video, the resurrection of Jesus is the point of contention. An atheistic couple go to a restaurant with their daughter who starts choking and is saved from the brink of death by a Christian nurse who was led by the Lord to eat at this particular restaurant convincing the mother that without the nurse there the child would have died. The mother begins to reconsider her atheistic position after what she believes is indeed a divine intervention. The husband feels this is now a threat to their wonderful, happy marriage, resents the nurse for leading his wife astray and wants his old atheist wife back not this new-believer type. The characters who give answers to the husband regarding the resurrection are cast well. I didn't give this movie 5 stars because it needed a bit more detail in why a person becomes an atheist just because they have suffered in the past. Read full review

This is a great movie for fact -based people who doubt the existence of God and Jesus Christ. Shows how a person will search for answers for all the wrong reasons and how powerful love can be. However, I felt at times that I was watching myself. I never did not believe in God, because during my dark times I blamed him for all my troubles. I had to have control of my life, no matter what. I could definitely identify with the main character Lee Strobl.

This is an excellent movie that will help anyone who is struggling with whether Christianity is real. This is a true story set in the 1980's of a Chicago Tribune award winning reporter who sets out to prove that Jesus was a hoax. The Cinematography and acting is very good. This is not a "B" rated movie. It was very professionally done. It is entertaining plus very educational. My wife and I really enjoy it and will watch it again.
