Product Description |
|
Pilgrim's Progress; Journey to heaven is a modern adaptation of John Bunyon's beloved classic tale. Amazing visual effects, beautiful locations and a wonderful cast bring to life the story that has inspired each generation for hundreds of years. Follow Christian and his companies on the great journey from the City of Destruction to the gates of Heaven.
Along the way, the pilgrims face obstacles large and small, man-made and demon-spawned.
Beyond the gripping drama, Bunyon's powerful allegory teaches us the hazards and hopes of the Christian life, and the triumphant glory that awaits all who faithfully follow the King of Kings! |

The best movie I have seen so far... |
I'm truly blown away from the quality of this movie. Out came out so well. The effects are not like other Christian movies where the effects are horrid.
The story is amazing and is a perfect movie to show those in the world. |

A great movie |
Please buy this movie, you will not regret it. I feel this is a great movie for mature audiences to watch, both Christians and Non-Christians. I bought the movie to watch at home, but after my husband and I saw the movie, we wanted to show it to our church as well so we bought a license so we could. I loaned it to my pastor which said there is so much "Truth" in this movie, he is looking forward to us showing it. The movie company even has tickets you can buy so members can use them to invite friends.
It really shows the decisions many Christians face each day. It also shows we need to keep our eyes focused on the Lord as we journey through life and not let the devil lead us astray. The devil does like to deceive and you can see that in the movie. My prayer is the Lord uses this movie to help people make it through the narrow gate.
I will be looking forward to future movies by Mr. Carreles and his talented crew.

The Pilgrim's Progress in 21st Century Dress |
|
This is a wonderful film of the timeless John Bunyan classic and a powerful witness to Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. It surpasses in quality the Ken Anderson 1979 films "Pilgrim's Progress" and "Christiana," since the budget was proportionately higher, no doubt. Because I like period costuming I was a little disappointed, but the contemporary clothing and dialogue will ensure a larger audience and deliver a greater impact. Because of my love for this book I am still hoping that a film maker would simply follow the book more painstakingly as the film makers of the Harry Potter series did for those movies. I guess it all depends on the number of people who have read it! I urge anyone to see this film. I thoroughly enjoyed it. |

"Renewed hope that today's Christian artists can impact the world of tomorrow" |
"Many of today's filmmakers are focusing their lenses on important stories as they seek to change the world through their movies". This DVD is an example of this very thing.
"Christian, in A Pilgrim's Progress, is a stranger in a strange land, curious, hopeful ... and a bit intimidated" and this was clearly demonstrated and portrayed nicely. I was not disappointed in this DVD and was able to empathize and apply it to my own life just like so many have done with the reading of the original book of this title. Meaning, the movie adheres fairly tightly to the original book and I wasn't caught up in trying to figure out the liberties taken by the film industry. I was truly able to enjoy the movie and how it flowed and appreciated and felt the benefit of being able to see the books pages come to life and in motion right before me.
Production value was good. Even good + with some fairly ok computer generated insertions (some can be so hokey and these did not leave you asking "why did they do that as it just took away from the feel of a genuine experience" or "am I playing a game on the computer screen now"?). Acting was good + and convincing. They were able to draw you in and past.....in contrast to leaving you on the fringe wondering why they were chosen to depict the part (and in hopes they had a different day job as well).
The bottom line for me was this....the true intent (and content) of the story came through despite the fact it didn't have a million dollar budget to do it. Our children, (8 and 6) who have read the child's version of this story, also very much enjoyed it and have watched it more than once. Granted, it is not the eye-candy we are accustomed to in so many of the movies out there with cinematography (Lord of the Rings, Narnia) and yet it is one that is still very well put together. It is a "keeper for the collection" and we have even purchased it as a gift for others (including a copy of the book to go with it). This is a classic story and one that should be on film and they did well with the making of this one.

I saw this movie in a church service in Price Utah and was at awe. It was very moving and very spiritual. You need to see this movie. Tami Oviatt |
