Late, Great Planet Earth (DVD, 2004)

If you are a fan of Hal Lindsey or a brand new student of Bible prophesy, this book is one of the best ever written in our generation on the subject. Lindsey covers a comprehensive amount of material and Scripture in this book. It is an exhaustive look at what this world is headed for. The exciting part is that God is in charge despite man's terror and tyranny. A wonderful book that I have returned to time and time again for inspiration and information.

The book The Late, Great Plant Earth by Hal Lindsey and Carole C. Carlson was published in 1970. The theme – the coming end of the world as we know it – was then and still is a popular, intriguing topic. In 1979, the movie version was released and was just as successful as the book itself.

Now, some three decades after the release of the movie, it is easy to see the instances of now-dated information – such as Russia being a world power when written and now awaiting its resurgence from the fractured pieces that exist today. Mentioning the formation of the European Union, today we now have the economic union of the Euro. Referring to the great oil crisis of the mid-70s, we now have the oil crisis of the late 2000s. And passing references to Iraq and we have thousands of valiant warriors who have paid the ultimate price in that country.

The movie brings into focus the infallibleness of Biblical prophecy along with the impending fulfillment of the end times as foretold in the Bible. If there was one thing I could revise on the DVD it would be to have a “follow up” in the special section to bring the viewer up to date with happening that have transpired since the end of the 70s. Still, as is, the movie is a must for those interested in “where’s it all going to end.”

I saw this movie when it hit the big screen in the early 80's. It was quite interesting and sent an incredible message. Tried over the years to find it, but was not available. Orsen Wells is a classic in this one. Its message now is as important and relevant as it was then.

I have followed Hal Lindsay since the mid 70's and this movie is excellent for those who prefer a movie instead of a reading the book.

THE SERVICE WAS GREAT, THE MOVIE WASN'T ALL THAT GOOD. IT WAS NOTHING LIKE I REMEMBERED IT WAY BACK WHEN IT WAS IN THE MOVIE.

Historic events well put together and presented in an orderly fashion. Sur, this movie makes one to have more questions than answers. But, it also make one to think of what are we doing with this magnificant planet earth !
Aside from any religious issues, this movie addressed various prophetic statements and from various religious background. But, there is one thing to retain, I think, and it is that EVERYONE comes to the same conclusion and predicts almost the same things.
Makes one to wonder if indeed all religions are governed by the same 'Supreme'or 'above humain beings' spirit ?
This is a movie that I will view at least 5 or 6 times before I comprehend all there is to comprehend.
Good film, professional and very well put together!
