bianaryabyss I've read many of the reviews and after watching it, it's obvious that the well informed really like it and the low information folks don't get it. If you are poorly informed but want to prepare to watch this movie google the following:Recent Administration Actions 1.Falsely portrayed the Benghazi terrorist attack as a spontaneous protest against an anti-Muslim YouTube video, and then lied about the White House's involvement. 2.Issued signing statements, refusing to enforce parts of congressional- enacted statutes. 3.Killed four Americans overseas in counter terrorism operations without judicial process. 4.Had SWAT teams raid a Gibson guitar factory and seize property, on the purported basis that Gibson had broken India's environmental laws—but no charges were filed. 5.Government agencies are engaging in "Operation Choke Point," where the government asks banks to "choke off" access to financial services for customers engaging in conduct the Administration does not like—such as "ammunition sales." 6. Made illegal "recess" appointments to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the National Labor Relations Board when Congress wasn't in recess. Ignored the rulings of three federal courts of appeals that held those nominations unconstitutional. For further information read The "Cloward and Piven Strategy" and google whatisagenda21 then ask yourself about the TPP and the Iran Nuclear deal. If you don't understand what's wrong with the Iran Nuke deal look up 12ers. This is just the off the top of my head stuff but there's much more. In the light of recent events and the structural changes taking place around us this movie is actually reality light, and still it is terrifying.

caramel2004 There was nothing about this movie that was disappointing in my opinion. The only thing that is disappointing is the number of stars that this movie has by most of the viewers. I don't even think that this movie was in the theaters and now I know why. It speaks the truth! Nowadays it seems that any type of religious movie will never hit the theatres, because "they" don't want anyone to know the truth. The main character and all of the other actors & actresses of this movie did an excellent job and the plot was awesome! If you didn't get what this movie was TRULY telling you, then you will truly be the one lost in the end. Read your bible people; it's all right there. And make sure that you are prepared for His coming.

kkjmms Obviously this was a piece of fiction with all of the 'big brother' aspects of the show. It uses government cover-ups which may seem a stretch at times, but then again with today's politics gets closer to reality then I think we would like to believe. However it did expose a side that is largely ignored by the media and maybe society in general. The movie exposes that it seems that people of all religious faiths are accepted unless it is the Christian faith, which seems to the politically correct faith to go against these days. I felt that what was portrayed in the movie was actually quite realistic and possible. I only would have liked to have seen the theme carried a bit further, but then again maybe real life doesn't always have happy endings? I look forward to a equal. I realize that there is a bit of a moral, and possibly pro-Christian message and I can't help but wonder if that is the reason for some of the negative reviews? (that itself would fall into the same premise exposed in the film!) I tried to be objective in my viewing of it and would say the theme was great as well as the acting. It just didn't carry it far enough and left me feeling like there should be more time spent telling more of the story - this the need for a sequel.

bessy042000 Persecuted is the tale of a Christian televangelist (Luther, played brilliantly by Remar) under pressure by government officials to support legislation that would give the US Government oversight over all faiths in exchange for Federal funds. At the beginning, Luther is pressured by a key senator (Davison) to support the proposed legislation. Luther does not agree with the Federal curtailment of his freedom to speak of Christianity as the true faith, and of not supporting, through taxation, other faiths. When Luther rejects the senator's proposed legislation, he incurs the wrath of those seeing the legislation as a cure-all for worldwide religious unrest. A plot is then placed into motion to destroy Luther's reputation and credibility. Luther must struggle against influential government operatives to not only support his convictions, but to stay alive. Superb acting enhances a tight plot.
