Astonishingly dated for its release year, this is largely a vehicle to express Sorbo's venom for public health officials fighting a deadly pandem-er, a spate of mysterious disappearances.
The actor/ director/ reluctant-vaccine-recipient puts his rejection of evidence, expertise, and decency on display by employing the bizarrely confused, Buck(er) Williams. Buck is "only asking questions" when he isn't launching into endless, half-baked monologues about the "pandemic of fear," shadowy corporations changing votes-er...data, news networks spreading state propaganda, or the United Nations controlling the world.
The movie creates a contradiction by repeatedly comparing the biblical rapture with the Covid-19 pandemic, while also pandering to people who deny that covid ever killed anyone. It also targets those who'd profit from the rapture-demic, despite being the THIRD film attempt at the Christian novel series.
Kevin Sorbo doesn't attempt to fill the shoes Nicholas Cage threw out after the 2014 film, instead replacing him with...himself and a teleprompter? His replacement cast (which includes his wife and son) somehow fails to reach even his poor performance level.
All that said, I'm sure the Christian faithful will stand by this film and its sequels; sequels assuredly filled with broken metaphors for gender-inclusive bathrooms and white replacement, probably sometime in 2028.
