| | Since the book is an allegory I wouldn't have a problem with it being brought into modern times a bit. Might help people relate to the story a bit more, so long as the storyline isn't tampered with and they keep "modern morality" out of it.

The musical soundtrack sounds like something out of Godspell and there is a brief shadow representation purporting to be Christ on the cross, which we abhor, but otherwise, it's pretty good.
We also have the Torchlighters John Bunyan DVD, which tells the story of Bunyan himself with scenes from The Pilgrim's Progress, which I like better. |

| | | In theory it might have seem good to make this into a movie but i dont think this is going to turn out too well.

| | | It looks pretty lame; like it is produced by the same type of company that does Bibleman. It may be good, but just from the preview it does not appear to be a high budget film.

| | | Many times the first few reviews on Amazon on VERY positive about the product. That is if the marketing people are doing their job. I hope the movie is great but I'm betting the first review was written by someone associated with the video. |

However I did read on the evbible site that they had watched it and highly recommend it, so I thought it was maybe safe to send the Amazon review. Of course, I don't know exactly who they are either! Pilgrim's Progress: Journey to Heaven, 2008 DVD - $16.99 : EvangelicalBible.com
Hopefully someone here will watch it and review it for us! | |
