This film is too deep for shallow minded persons to comprehend. It is a parable. The theology is spot on, but you have to apply yourself to see it. Don't expect to be spoon fed. It challenges your comprehension and what you thought you knew about God. It gets better each time you see it. I hope that the producers will do a follow up to bring the story to the end. It ends now by saying this is just the beginning. I know there is much more to be said. The Great Controversy will come to an extremely satisfactory end. And that is a story that needs to be told. Why are we here? Why do we exist? What is the purpose of life? We have just been briefly exposed to the story behind the story. We need to have the curtain drawn back more.

Excellent! Made by Christians to non-Christians

TRK is a web series made for non-Christians.

Tries to show another view on what Seventh-day Adventists call " The Great Controversy " , changing the view commonly used (our : human ) for the Angels .

The series shows the trajectory of two angels very close (brothers / friends ) and who initially fought together side of " General" in the revolt of the angels against the " Administration " of the universe to date that would be the ultimate in life of all the angels . Also presents good secondary characters like Raina , who is in charge of recording interviews with both sides of the conflict impartially and his sidekick Atlan.

Was produced with great care and has a well bound and lean storyline. Trends and motivations of the characters are clear throughout the series, giving little room for theological speculation . The so- called " theological errors " are simply poetic licenses that match very well with the context and do not compromise theology.

Serves very well as a gateway to introduce theological themes in non-Christian audiences and please the fans of this generation of sitcoms. The outdoor scenes are a visual delight and the actors, although not as well known to the general public, has a very consistent performance with great individual moments.

Certainly the more purist Adventist public will not like, but few things written after 1910 please the purist Adventist public.

Technically good, but spiritually it's garbage Warning: Spoilers
While the technical execution of the film was good, it is scary that by the end of the sixth episode, you're feeling sympathetic toward a fallen angel and Lucifer is forgiving angels for their sins. Then a few episodes later, the director takes a cue from "The Shack" by portraying God as a black woman. Christians be warned! As a Seventh Day Adventist Christian, I'm glad that the conference pulled the plug on the project. The thinking the film promotes is dangerous for Christians. If you're not a Christian, go ahead and check it out. Again, I'm not hating on the quality of the series, in fact I was rather impressed, hence the three stars.
