July 27, 2013 | PG-13 | 1h 30min Out of all of director Timothy A. Chey’s excellent and engrossing films, “Final: The Rapture” could be his most impactful one that I’ve watched to date. Speaking of dates, although this seminal film had its world premiere back on July 27 of 2013 and was heralded as…
Popcorn and Inspiration: ‘For Greater Glory: The True Story of Cristiada’
R | 2h 25min | Drama, History, War | 20 April 2012 History, as far as it is taught in the public schools of the United States, is a very politically correct subject and often omits or otherwise ignores unpopular or shameful aspects that have happened at different points in time. One inconveniently true stain…
