Movie Reviews of End of the Spear

Movie Review: End of the Spear
Summary: 5 Stars

End of the Spear This was very well done, photography was exceptional. I remember the actual event of this movie, when the 5 missionaries were killed. Slides of these men were shown in my church in the 50's. The movie really does show the actual events with certain reality and vivid display of the people that were involved. I was very moved and inspired by the story that unfolded after the 5 men were so savagely killed. It is a great film and I would recommend it to all above the age of 10 years old.

Movie Review: End of the Spear Film Review
Summary: 5 Stars

FoxFaith's "End of the Spear" was on my list of must-sees immediately after the DVD release. I was very pleased with what I saw. Great casting and stunning locations made this film seem very real. The story is a compelling and suspenseful one. All of the scenes are extremely well-written and choreographed. It's a little drawn out for about the last 17 minutes of the film, but this is not a major setback considering the quality of the motion picture itself. Above all else, everything even the names are historically accurate, down to every meticulous detail. A must see for EVERYONE!

Movie Review: What it truly means to Love your Enemy
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is based on a true story of how 5 missionaries were martyr in the 1950s while trying to reach out to the ingenious people in Ecuador. Their surviving families were then invited back to the same village as the murderers. Where the spear ends (loss of the 5 missionaries), sprouts forth hundreds or thousands of salvation of the indigenous people. Truly the missionaries and their families lived their lives having Jesus in their images. The survivors, instead of succumbing to their fear and pains, lived to show what it truly means to love your enemies.


Movie Review: Beautiful and dynamic
Summary: 5 Stars

End of the Spear draws the viewer into the world of Ecuador's rain forest. Based on an true account, this movie fascinated me. The scenery is beautiful, and the occasional subtitles are weaved into the movie in a manner that does not distract from its action. I enjoyed the clips of the actual people involved as the credits closed the movie. Excellent choice for anyone who is interested in cultural anthropology, indigenous socities, or in Christian themes. This movie does not preach; it shows the love, loss, and restoration of two families. I will watch it again soon.

Movie Review: Real story about real heroes
Summary: 5 Stars

Hollywood keeps coming out with more versions of fictitious hero stories (e.g. the latest Superman) because they know we all love heroes who can inspire us. But this film is the "real " deal because the story is true. It's the story of men and women who thought something was so important they'd lay their lives down for it - like trying to show love to a violent South American tribe who only knew hate and how to kill. Their legacy and what happened after their deaths will stay with you long after the credits roll.
