Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Don't listen to the negative reviews

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

I am a Catholic and have hard time reading bible. This series showed a real meaning of who I am.

When attending school or church as a child I read extracts from the bible and found some of the stories to be really interesting. However I felt that religion was forced on me which consequently turned me away. Maybe as I've aged and choose to watch these biblical tales because they bring me hope of a better afterlife as I don't believe that we will ever love our neighbours as ourselves. Also, we're all doubting Thomas's, if we we never saw what others saw then we start to believe we're having our leg pulled. This is one of the most powerful stories ever told and if you ever get the chance to watch it, do so, it may make you think how you conduct yourself - even if it's only whilst you're watching it.

This is much superior to 'The Bible'. It portrays the changing of the world forever at the moment of resurrection. A little Hollywood licence admittedly, but not the usual amount. The casting director did a really good job, and the locations look quite authentic. I have viewed 4 episodes so far, and have not been disappointed so far. I am looking forward to the rest with some anticipation. There is some violence, but one has to remember that it was a very violent age. The Romans thrived and ruled through fear. I have seen far worse on ordinary TV before the watershed. It is a great shame that this program was cancelled after only one series. It never ceases to amaze me anything to do with Christianity is tolerated for a few weeks at most.

Though there are some inaccuracies with respect to the authentic biblical account of the Book of Acts, the series is a good watch. I found the Drama well acted and intense, keeping me on the edge of my proverbial seat, spurring me to keep on watching. There is artistic licence which I do not totally agree with, like some of the interpretations of the characters, but if one reminds oneself that it is, after all, dramatised artistic licence that we are dealing with, one can overlook the inconsistencies without becoming overly frustrated or disappointed. Yes, the way some of the scenes were interpreted left me feeling a little bit betrayed due to their inconsistent irreverence with respect to the authentic biblical account, but having said that, I have nevertheless still enjoyed the series.
