Oh yes it is....look how well is portrays the struggles of life and how everything turns out because God intervened by sending an angel to the rescue. I think it counts.

Passion of the Christ made me cry, cry, cry!

Joan of Arc is one for me! It's ironic, how she was burned at the stake as if she was a witch.

I love The Ten Commandments...must have watched it close to a dozen times, the first when I was a kid when it was first shown in the theater.

I saw the Passion of the Christ in the theater, bought the dvd the first day out but haven't watched it again. It's really painful to watch and I really wish they were speaking in English....

Yeah I haven't watched it in a while, but it's just over 3 hours if I remember correctly. When you watch it be prepared to cry....it's very moving. But if you pay attention to Schlindler's character and actions you will see what I'm talking about. Very moving.

I bought popcorn, right before the Passion Of the Christ, and drove the bus to take a bunch of people to see it, got into the theater later casue I had to park, sit down to eat, and couldnt, because of the scenes in the movie and the reality of it.

Oh man, that's a total classic! Terrific movie. Has anyone sean "A man for all seasons" Excellent! Excellent! I would highly recommend it. It's quite old but very very well done. It's a true story too.

Default Christian based movies

This one is old too, but "Chariots of Fire" is a good one.

I also love "It's a Wonderful Life" Don't agree with the theology in it about angels but that's another thread... Actually, if you look in my "personal profile" here "Wonderful Life" is one of the movies I listed as favorites.
