I have watched all of Cloud Ten's end time movies. While none of them were stellar, this one was abysmal. It seemed like it was John Hagee's effort to showcase himself, more than anything else, by calling it a documentary. It was a bottom dweller when it came to production values, using recycled clips from Apocolypse more than new footage. It completely lacked both plot and character development. If it was to be a documentary, then it should have had some scripture to it. If Hagee's preaching is as lean on scripture as this film is, then I think I will skip ever watching that the same as I advise skipping this waste-of-time. There are plenty of halfway decent films out there for sharing with friends about the end times, but this one is totally worthless.

I found "Vanished" to be excellent. It is Biblically-sound and Pastor John Hagee does well to back up the events with Scripture throughout the movie. It reminds me that this is not simply a sensational, fictitious story, but one that the Bible is trying to prepare us for. It clarified the sequence of events for me. Often, people have heard about "Rapture", "Anti-Christ", "Great Tribulation", "the 144,000" and so on, but put the sequence of events into a "too-hard-basket". John Hagee summarised all this up beautifully and so logically. It would certainly wake up the "sleepy Christian".

Most of the reviewers have totally missed the point. If you read the "Left Behind" books, or watched the "Tribulation" series movies, you saw that the believers leave a video to tell those left behind where they have gone, what is going to happen in the tribulation, and how to receive Christ as their Savior. This DVD is similar to those videos. So, it is not really a movie in the traditional sense, it is a movie for believers to purchase to leave as a message. It doesn't really have a plot line, a hero and heroine going through trials and tribulations, etc. However, if you are a Christian you should ask yourself, if the rapture happens, would I want my loved ones to know what happened to me, how to join me, and what to make of the Anti Christ? If so, this is for you.

This isn't really a movie. It's a short subject on the conjuncture of "The Rapture" which term, by the way, does not exist in the Bible. Not that I don't believe in the Second Coming, but there is nothing triumphant or glorious about this short film and I saw no clouds of glory to which I'd desire to be caught up. There are better and much more compelling tales on the subject to be found elsewhere. Search them out. Better yet, search the Scriptures.

[In this stunning prophetic docu-drama Pastor John Hagee whisks you into the near future, into a world spinning wildly out of control.] As the editorial review stated it is a docu-drama and it is John Hagee's way of explaining to us the Great Tribulation for those Left Behind.

[As the prophetic events unfold-the rapture, the rise of the anti-christ, the deception, the persecution of new believers-Pastor Hagee is right there to explain exactly what the Word of God teaches about them.] That is why John Hagee is right there to explain each point of what happened! He is explaining what the the Word of God has to say in regards to the prophetic events in regards to the Rapture and to explain to those who have been left behind. I admired John Hagee's preaching he does it with "Fire and Brimstone!" You can feel it comes from his heart.

I agree with the previous poster Kiltmaker (Maryland) -- However, if you are a Christian you should ask yourself, if the rapture happens, would I want my loved ones to know what happened to me, how to join me, and what to make of the Anti Christ? If so, this is for you.

I've seen many end-time movies and this one is great! Drama, mixed in with words from Pastor Hagee make it a must-see for everyone.

This movie is a great way to bring others to Jesus. It's an Oldie but goodie.

I purchased Vanished looking for another great movie from cloud ten and ended up with a great witnessing tool; if it helps to save one lost soul it is more than worth it's weight in gold! I gave it 3 stars for how well it is put together. The transitional sequences between the movie and John Hagee could have been done better. I rate it at 4 stars if you are buying Vanished for a witnessing tool. Also leave it in your DVD player so that it may be used when you are gone.

Another reviewer said some people missed the point of this movie... Well I didn't miss the point.

The point of this movie is not to be a fictional movie but some sort of instruction video for those who are left behind after the rapture that some Christians believe is coming.

The fictional elements of the movie are interrupted by scenes where Pastor John Hagee declares that this, in fact, will happen, becaus the bible tells us it will, and when it does, you better be a Christian and be saved, and don't trust the evil European politician that will become some kind of world president and say he's the Messiah, because he's really the Anti-Christ.

I wouldn't recommend anyone to see this movie, and certainly not to spend their money on it. If you think you need an instruction video about what to do when the end is near and that the televangelists who made this movie needs more money than they already have - go ahead and buy it, but don't say I didn't warn you.

thats all i could say it was the worst movie i have ever seen i mean it could have been alot better it that stuped guy hadent kep coming into the movie.
format was DVD
