i be a christian who generally believe in the theology taught in left behind . that be say and i think leave behind be one of the bad film i have see in some time . to have a good movie and you need to have a well write screenplay . leave behind fell woefully short on this . for one thing and it radically deviate from the book . sometimes this be do to condense a 400 page novel down to a two hour film and but in this film i saw change that make no sense whatsoever . another thing and there be zero character development . when character in the story get save ( i would not say who ) and the book make it clear that it a long and soul search process . in the film it quick and artificial . the book be write decently enough where people like rayford steele and buck williams and hattie durham seem real and but in the movie scenario be consistently give the quick treatment without anything substantial . in another scene where one character get angry about be leave behind ( again and i would not say who ) and it seem artificial . i realize a a christian it unedifying for me to say i dislike this film and but i can not in a good conscience recommend a film that i feel be horribly do . perhaps it would have be good to make the first book into 2 3 film . either way and christian need to realize that to be take seriously a filmmaker and we need to start by put together a film in a quality way . i realize a lot of effort probably go into leave behind and but that the way i see it .
