Strange concept which justifies the means.
Has this movie the potential to bring the viewer closer to the Lord?

Yes, it has.

Has this movie the potential to bring those close to the viewer closer to the Lord?

Yes, it definitely has.

Is this movie biblical?

Rather not. We cannot play Lord nor go back in time. BUT we are definitely in power to influence our future and the future of others.

Therefore, although being based on an unbiblical concept and with a great creative license, it is a good movie which stimulates the minds of the viewers in a very powerful way.

The music is sometimes a bit overly dramatic, but the concept is well-elaborated and fulfills its purpose.

Clear recommendation.

Just another piece of pretentious evangelical malarkey.
shroyerw-131 December 2010
Evangelical Christians are letting you know they're better than you again. Pretentious, puerile propaganda pure and simple - though not a bad view for someone who is already into that mindset. Don't get me wrong - I don't have a problem with evangelical Christians per se. Some of my most loved family & friends are. It's just that I can't stomach propaganda, religious or otherwise. Especially not when it tries to pass itself off as legitimate, mainstream cinema. The only way I could ever consider watching this type of movie is if I were interested in seeing a dramatized depiction of outdated mythology, somewhat like many of these religious folks would view a movie about the Greek gods or Egyptian deities.

Dialtone the Movie
porteosaw28 January 2011
Dialtone is one of those movies that after watching it some 4 or 5 times contributes to its clarity. This is normal for films that are sci-fi in structure although the film's emphasis is Christian perspective. It would have been nice if the film could have ran longer developing the plot deeper, but like the writers and producers - it was enough; I'm not sure more would have contributed much. Anyway, I personally see the film beneficial. It's not about entertainment, but rather thought provoking. The music score was excellent. It would be nice if a soundtrack was available. I hope this production group is able to do even broader works in the future with as much purpose as this film expressed. Ignore the critics; they have their popcorn and Batman, or whatever floats their boats to where ever. Stephen
