“There was this electrifying atmosphere in the lobby,” says a spokesperson for RiverRain Studios. “People were saved in the lobby, it was incredible.”

Another, a football player, came out crying uncontrollably. “The ending was so emotional, I couldn’t stop crying,” the man said.

One pastor exiting the theater said, “Every single person, Believer and Non-Believer, in America should see this. It’s the best film I’ve ever seen and will bring millions to Christ.”

Exit polls showed over 98% of the movie-goers giving the film a “thumbs up” and recommending the film to others.
