Movie Reviews of The Second Coming
Movie Review: acting good, plot falls apart
Summary: 3 Stars
I found this to be first an interesting idea for a plot. Jesus Christ comes again as Steve Baxter. Perhaps the most interesting idea was the question on how to understand Steve as 'Son of God'. As in most contempary film, they emphasize his humanity.
It has a interesting but poor plot. In addition, it was over symplistic and disengenious to human experience.
However it did engage me, perhaps because I thought much of the story and the characterization of God/Steve Baxter had high potential, which I hoped at some point would be realized.
As far as being great for discussion: I am not buying that ticket!!
The primary question being, 'Is God the problem?'
