HEAVEN OR HELL ?

What I loved most: Hilary Swank.

What I really hated: Poor Editing.

This movie was alright. It has some nail-biting scenes but were not enough. Most of the scenes are boo scares and it gets worn out easily. Hilary Swank is awesome! She manages to convince the audience. Poor editing puts the movie down. Although the movie length is okay, the terror and main subject is dragged to the last 40 minutes of the show. Even the ending, where you thought it was gonna end, it goes on and on. Watch only if you don't mind slow narration.

A watchable B-Rated Film

What I loved most: Hillary Swank

What I really hated: Bad Editing

Sure! this movie is makes references to the Bible and all the hoo haa about God's wrath and so on. But, one thing for sure, this movie is really not about God's wrath or the 7 plagues, it's about..well, I don't really know what's it's about.. Overall, it's watchable if you watch it without any expectations.

I loved the ending.

What I loved most: I liked how the girl was really innocent.

What I really hated: Not really anything

I would really like to see a sequal to this theme. I was into the movie from the start, when the scientist could find an explanation for every Biblical miracle or plague, ever created by the religious figures in our society. I plan to study Theology in College. Including all religions, not leaving anything unturned, or explained. I beleive that the Church has covered up things from the begining of religion, and that alot of the Doctrines and beleifs of the Churches are False Teachings. I do beleive in a creator and a destroyer of the Earth, but Hell is on Earth, and Heaven is 6 Feet under it! Until you die, you will never know all the answers. Also, worshiping Satan still goes on in America. It is our constitutional right for Freedom of Religion in this Country. If the people or the Government don't like it, they can move back to wherever they immigrated from and leave the rest of the True Americans alone. I didn't ask to be born in America, but I love our freedoms. I wish they weren't taken from U.S. by the Government. Their idea of freedom is just words, not REAL freedom, because when people exercize their rights given to us in the Constitution, they make a new Law to take the Freedom Back! Government was set up in America to Govern the Savages who's land was stolen from them, so we could have new Trade Routes to get to Aisia from Europe and Africa. I beleive that we should stop the Killing, End All Wars and work towards World Peace for All Peoples not just Americans and enslaving all other cultures with our Power of the Military Forces trying to Police the World. Policing is picking up trash, and The Creator didn't make any trash, Men did! We should step back and really look into what this World is or has Become! And try to change the politics of it, before the United States takes over the Whole World and Force Its beleif system on the rest of the World. It is all about money and resources, Famine, disaster, and Releif of the Turmoil created when one culture takes control of another. I beleive we should live and let live. Offer help and Aid where needed, and Quit killing Nations for our own political beleifs and for religion, haven't the Holy Wars gone on long enough? According to the Bible they will last for 10,000 years. I think that WE THE PEOPLE, have the power to change that if we just wake up, and start caring about other people instead of what is Politically Correct at the time of the Election. This is an Election year, really think about what you vote for, or we could go on Polluting, killing, raping the resources, and trying to make the Whole world Chritsians. I think that some people don't want our Beleifs or Laws forced on them, by losing a War to the Largest World Power, the U.S.A. we need to consider how it might affect the rest of the population of the World, and their Cultures and Beleifs, they don't ALL WANT TO BE AMERICANS! I DON'T THINK, WE SHOULD SUBMIT THEM TO THE ABUSE THAT EVERYDAY AMERICANS FACE HERE AND ABROAD, BY THE GOVERNMENT AND ITS LAW AND ORDER. THE WORLD BEGAN CHAOTIC AND WILL END THE SAME WAY! BUT, I DON'T WANT IT TO END SO SOON, AND THAT IS WHAT BUSH AND HIS ADMINISTRATION IS HEADING FOR ANOTHER WORLD WAR. IRAN IS A WEALTHY COUNTRY, JUST LIKE IRAQ WAS, NOW WE OWN THAT COUNTRY AND ARE PROMOTING A FALSE SENCE OF DEMOCRACY THERE NOW, WE CAN'T KEEP ON CONTROLLING PEOPLE FOR OUR OWN ASSURANCE THAT THEY WILL NEVER ATTACK US, REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR AND VIET NAM, KOREA OR IRAN BEFORE? WE LOST THOSE TO COMMUNISTS, BUT WE AREN'T ANY BETTER THAN A DICTATOR TRYING TO RULE THE WORLD LIKE HITLER TRIED TO. WE STOPPED HIM AND THEN AMERICA TOOK UP THE FIGHT TO CONTROL THE WORLD, AND WE CAN'T LEGALLY. OR BY GOD, IF YOU BELEIVE THAT WAY HE WANTS US ALL TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AND THOU SHALT NOT KILL. PEOPLE OR BELEIFS, EVERY LIVING THING ON THIS GREEN EARTH WAS CREATED TO LIVE TOGHETHER, IN HARMONY AND GRACE THROUGH PEACE. LAW IS NOT ORDER, IT IS CONTROL OF SOME PEOPLE BY THE ONES THAT WRITE IT AND THE ONES THAT ENFORCE IT. ORIGINALLY WE WERE GIVEN 10 LAWS GIVEN TO MOSES AND BROUGHT DOWN THE MOUNTAIN FOR ALL PEOPLE TO FOLLOW! IF WE WOULD FOLLOW THOSE 10 THE WORLD WOULD BE A MUCH BETTER PLACE AND THE LIFE EXPECTANCY ON EARTH WOULD RISE NOT PLUMMIT LIKE IT HAS OVER THE LAST 33 YEARS THAT I'VE BEEN WALKING THE EARTH, I DO THINK IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE IN THE BIG... PICTURE!!! FOR A FUTURE FOR THE WHOLE REST OF THE WORLD THAT NOONE SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT, BECAUSE IT DOSEN'T DIRECTLY AFFECT THEM, BUT WHAT ABOUT YOUR CHILDREN? ALSO THE CHILDREN THAT CAN'T EVEN GET TSUNAMI RELEIF BECAUSE ALL OUR EFFORTS ARE DEVOTED TOWARDS WAR AND DESTRUCTION, WHEN DO WE STOP DESTROYING WORLDS AND START REBUILDING THIS ONE, IT'S THE ONLY WORLD WE ARE EVER GOING TO HAVE! I loved your movie and would like to see more entertainment in movies and television, and less reality. Because, reality happens every day and people want to be entertained not reminded what they have to live every day. Think of all the people that have died or were murdered for their beleifs, freedoms, and politics, also religion during the Crusades in Europe, can't we learn from the mistakes of the past, or are we going into the Future with No grasp of what powerful groups, churches, or organizations have already destroyed or covered up. The Time For TRUTH is now. Take their power from the Officials who Govern YOU, and give it back to nature and The Higher Power, something not quite understood, but definately REAL and ALL POWERFUL, let the CREATOR OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH regain the ultimate decision of who lives and dies and not a man or men who govern. We really haven't come that far in 2007 years since they crucified Christ. You would think that by seeing how corrupt the Romans were, that we wouldn't want to model America, the New Land, after what we were trying to escape when we immigrated here, among the American Indians, the Mexicans and all other people who already lived here in the lands of America, North, South, Central, and now islands,and territories East and West. Give people the CHOICE, to side with America or not. And back their decision. Don't FORCE THEM to CHANGE!!! They will respect Americans more when we're not the World's bully any more. We should educate, finance and actually help our Neighbors instead of trying to control them. It's the GOLDEN RULE!!! Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you, if you don't want another occurance like 9/11, then we should start supporting foreign policies and not try to make NEW ones. Like I said before, LIVE AND LET LIVE, STOP KILLING, NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
