IT'S AS EASY AS BLACK & WHITE!
In this movie there's nothing more to say than; a story, although ridden with the obvious CGI ... this is a great concept with more than enough of the obvious religious overtones. In fact - this is what the movie is totally about.In as much as I want to see a movie without all of the effects ... this one could not be done without them. There is no saving the Planet ... but that doesn't mean that the Planet will not exist.
As much as I have not read the BIBLE, I know that GOD will destroy it by fire, at least that is what I remember from Sunday School. What better way to end the world than be a solar flare so immense that it eradicates the ozone and extinguishes LIFE. A great way to envision the RAPTURE of 'Believers.'
But this movie in its own way touches on the rapture of alien beings who take on an appearance of angelic beings taking 'Those who hear the call' but, more symbolically the new Adam and Eve - even as you see the 'Orbed Ships of Light' fleeing from the planet minutes before destruction begins, but allowing salvation in the reunion of Nicolas Cage's character to his family who understand ... 'It Does Begin Again' even as we 'Let Go.'
I thought it was a great movie and given the time constraints ... I would have written more of an in depth opinion, if only I knew people cared enough to read ... just another opinion ... outside of the Hollywood Insiders.
