Joshua?

Postby valdrianth » Thu Oct 07, 2004 10:56 pm

Has anyone seen the movie Joshua??
It's a wonderful Christian Movie, with great themes that will please ALL Christian denominations. It shows we're all united through Christ.
It's extremely moving and light hearted. I was brought to tears many of times during the film. Especially "Joshua"'s visit to see the Pope in Rome. It was like. . . wow. This is a movie to make you go Wow.

I'm such a dork. When I read your post, I was thinking, "How could Joshua have visited the Pope? There was no Pope in ancient Isreal."

I haven't seen the movie, how about a quick review?

^_^ Good movie!! also, it is funny! I loved it!!!

I'm not too good at reviews seeing as how I have never really done it.
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing left in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!' ...you'll be a Man, my son!

I adored it!

By the way Sunako, it's not in theaters, it's only on video/DVD (I think it's on DVD).

I liked the goofy part when: (it's not a spoiler but it's one of the funny parts)
[SPOILER] The man was fishing and Joshua went up to him and saw that the man didn't have any fish, and he grinned and said, "Oh, ye of little fish..."[/SPOILER]

Money, get away
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay
And all and all you're just another brick in the wall
Shoutin’ in the street gonna take on the world some day
But Bismallah will not let me go
Because I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
Bright eyes burning like fire
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids

Who will love a little Sparrow
Who's traveled far and cries for rest
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all
And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you!

Hmm, I've only seen the movie once so I can't give that well of a review. So I think I"ll go rent it again so I can give a nice review for it. Basically a man named Joshua comes along and unites the Prodostant and Catholic churches in there area together and what not. He goes and preforms miricles. He eventually gets called by the Vaticant and goes to visit the Pope. This is when his true identity is revealed.
The last thing he says to the Pope made me cry because it was so wonderful.

Not really a complaint, but their version of the Catholic mass was really off. You'd think they could do a little research.

I watched it one or two years ago. It was an unique experience.


[spoiler= the character of Joshua] I really sensed in the movie that there was something very special about Joshua, I wonder whether that was how the disciples felt when they had Jesus among themselves.[/spoiler]

EDIT: sorry, didn't think that was a spoiler but yeah, just in case

Yea I couldn't help but notice that as well, being a Catholic.

Spoilier below, please highlight it if you want to read it.

Though I loved the end how the acknowdled the Pope as "Peter". I was like yup yup, that's right.


If I'm not mistaken, a Catholic Priest wrote the book.

I truly enjoyed the movie also. I recommend it to anyone- seriously- go rent it.

It teaches many important lessons and is well worth the money and time. My favorite is a spoiler, thus it is below:
[spoiler]It helped give me a more visual and modern example of WWJD because I think Joshua was Jesus, in the end ???[/spoiler]

I wish the movie had more publicity, I think it was only in theaters for a few weeks. :(
