>>219239778
Is that the only criticism you fags have about this movie?
Yeah, so what? He is immortal and has lived through all major events, why he being Jesus the most implausable part of this story?

>>219240325
that's basically how it goes until the end when he reveals he's actually the old man's dad or whatever and he has a heart attack

>>219239778
It has Heart

The Man from Earth is the ultimate pleb detector.
It's for people who feel "smart" after watching it without realising how fucking atrocious it is.
It's like a bad cheesy B movie from the 90s. The only redeeming factor is the intriguing backstory, literally every other film element is utter dogshit (yes, even the script)

From the mexican telenovela like acting, generic stock soundtrack, no character development, no actual dialogue just a long exposition Q&A throughout, constant boring back to back camerawork, no use of the one room, non existent lighting, a side love story pulled out of the ass, most cliche character traits, literally everything. I had to look up twice that it actually was from 2007, not early 90s.
This shit shouldn't even be a movie, it should be a book or a play. Or given to some other director because Richard Schenkman doesn't even know what a director is.
Just look at any other movie in his profile, everything is a meme (pic related)

And don't tell me they had no budget, 200 000$ is not small budget for this kind of movie. There are far superior movies with half the budget of that.
This movie has no artistic value whatsoever. It is just an excuse to make money from the story.
You will never see a renowned director admire this movie because there is nothing to admire except the concept.

Just try to compare this movie to let's say 12 Angry Men, both set in one room. The difference is almost laughable.

>>219239778
this is by FAR the worst movie I've ever seen. This is legitimately worse than the room. The fact it has such acclaim is absolutely baffling

>>219241417
>he actually watched the room
fucking midwit, leave this board

>>219239778
This movie is just a Neil Breen with a budget and a little bit more restraint

>>219239778
I remember liking it but not much else, saw it the time it came out

lotta filtered retards itt

It's in the running for greatest Christian film of the 21st century, and you WILL show respect.

jesus was a hippie, mo was a warrior. doesn't fit.

>>219239778
It's just a rip off of a Twilight Zone episode

>>219241836
you have to actually listen to the dialogue, zoomer.
try turning off your fortnite game next time you watch a movie

>>219242087
No, it's ingenious. They found a way to show Jesus without the bible getting in the way. Super capeshit Jesus for the atheist millennials, it forces them to consider a scientific hypothesis where Jesus is real and you have a personal relationship with him. It's not magic and it's not earthshattering, people resist it. There's a christian pharisee who says he's not the real messiah. His name isn't even Jesus, yet he has real things to teach us just by being a man. Powerful film

So why is this movie causing so much seethe in the thread

>>219239778
I loved this movie except for that part. It's a shame that's what they decided to focus on for the sequel.

>>219242197
My goal was for you to admit it's well written though. There's not much going on besides dialogue.

>>219243488
It makes the movie worse tactically because it's 'great man of history' slop that doesn't reflect reality, but it fulfills the premise on a whole new level by porting Jesus to the modern day.

>>219241046
I see what you saying and I agree.
I still like the movie.
If it was a play or a book, I wouldn't have seen it. Sure they could have better shots, better camera angles better locations. None of this detracted from the intriguin story.

>>219243401
Jesus is a revolutionary guy who makes people mad

>>219243401
The Jesus thing makes this movie very divisive to the point you either love it or hate it. If they removed the Jesus aspect you wouldn't have nearly as many haters.

>>219241836
Yes. I think you might have ADHD if you can’t hold your focus

>>219244175
ok retard, you're wrong

I think this movie is a contender for most deserving of a remake.

The concept is interesting, they got away with no budget at all, so awesome for them. But it's corny all the way through.

So keep the premise of some guy who lived throughout history, changing from place to place, and push it through some nice writing treatment to make it less lame, remove the christian bullshit and then hire some good actors for it, I think it could be a hit and there are many other sides to the story that could be explored.

>>219244175
I have ADHD and I loved The Man from Earth.

Actually, I've watched it twice. Truly one of the most entertaining premises for a film. I think the dialogue was fine, not perfect, but overall well executed. It somewhat lacked layers and intensity, the heart attack was certainly too much.

>>219244427
JOHN killed him because he was questioning, he showed resentment and because there can be only one.

>>219241606
>I am disappointed in your species. The human species.

20 years is 1% of the time gone by since Jesus. It basically just happened. The last 20 years are a significant portion of that time.
