The movie it's self was made well the problem I had with it was the plot. My husband and I were very disappointed and even a little angry to find that the movie barely resembles the book it is based on. I honestly wonder if the folks making the movie even read the book, it is almost as if someone came to work one day and said "I just read a really good book here is generally what it's about" and that is what the movie is based on. I do not mean to insult anyone but I just felt so strongly about this. We bought the movie right away because we wanted to support Christian movies and we were sorely disappointed. The characters were all messed up and wrong and the location of certain events were wrong. I just have to wonder what Frank Peretti thought of the movie. I know that you can't make a movie just like the book and due to budget and time constraints some dramatic license must be taken, but this was way off the scale of acceptable adaptations. If I hadn't read the book I would have liked the movie it was a good story, and it was pretty wall made. We will continue to support Christian movie endeavors, thank you for doing it. Just in the future, read the book.
