Prophecy as usual



“Countdown to Eternity” is a relatively well-made fundamentalist Christian movie, with all the usual creative interpretations of Biblical prophecy. The time is at hand, found out why! All the usual suspects are there: the New World Order, earthquakes, the ecumenical movement, false Christs and gay activists…you get the picture. The main difference between this production and most others of a similar kind is that “Countdown” accepts the reality of environmental destruction and (at least implicitly) climate change. They even quote Al Gore! Personally, I wasn't convinced. But then, I never am. Three stars for the effort.
