Watch Joshua For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

best movie i've ever seen.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

The first must-see film of the year.

This movie did not do justice to the beautiful and thought-provoking story as told in the book. It just didn't have the same level of detail or narration to fully explore the concept of how Jesus would be received in modern society.In addition, the acting by much of the supporting cast was not very good and made it difficult to take the movie seriously and watch it until the end. I am glad I did watch it until the end, though. I found myself surprisingly moved by the last scene.I highly recommend the book!

I loved this movie. The acting was on point and the story was beautiful, inspiring, and thought-provoking, without being over done. It's a great movie. The storyline was written to intrigue and the timing of each set of events unfolds in a natural way...In a way that allows the viewer to sort of "get lost" in the movie. You forget your watching a movie as you become immersed in the lives of the characters as they venture toward realistic challenges. I never forgot this film, and although it may have not been a blockbuster hit, it's one of those rare gems that touch a certain amount of movie-goers who seek entertaining films that offer something mentally stimulating. Even though this work is purely an artistic spin on a Christian themed idea, it's overall message is truth.

Joshua is a film about a man who wanders into a town. He rents a barn and works out of it for his woodcarving shop. He performs miracles that no ordinary man could do, shows the towns people that God loves them, which makes Father Tordone suspicious. There is a very obvious parallel between Joshua and Jesus. Many of the miracles and actions Joshua performs are the same as those done by Jesus. Such as when a con men set up a Tent Revival, Joshua tells him he doesn't have to con people. This is similar to Jesus and the Pharisees. Pharisees were strict observers of laws and rules, but Jesus thought differently, he preached love. Where he sought sinners out rather than scorn them. The film seems to show that Joshua is a messiah. Especially as in the Bible, one key part of being a messiah is to rebuild Solomon's Temple. In the film it seems to be symbolized when Joshua rebuilds a Baptist Church destroyed in a storm. Joshua also performs miracles like making the blind see, and raising the dead. Vatican City then catches interest in his actions, a lot like how Jesus' actions caught the attention of the Roman Empire. But I don't think the movie wants Joshua to represent the Second Coming. As Joshua in the film hasn't returned the Jews to their homeland, which Jesus couldn't do, but is stated in several biblical verses. The Christian response to this assertion of Jesus not being a messiah is he will accomplish this in the Second Coming. The same can be said of unfulfilled biblical verses. This film seems to be capturing how Jesus will be perceived in the modern times, and how society has changed from the ancient times. What I took away from this film is that Jesus came to Earth and died for our sins. But he did not come to do work for us, he began preaching love, and it is the responsibility of Christians to continue this work to continue to spread the message. Joshua changes the faith of the town's people and showed them love, but it is up to the people to decide if they believe in what Joshua showed them, some like Tordone at first are skeptical and suspicious but others who are healed see the truth of Joshua's actions.

To all believers and non-believers.....I've only just watched this film and for me it's a message to the world......community, values and love.......most of which seem to be missing in this world today. I loved it and it made me cry.......someone who has lost a lot and found a lot......faith in the hereafter and love for the world we have whilst we are here ....... all religions should watch this movie! The storyline is pure and simple, acting is superb, produced well and the message is obvious. This film restored my faith in mankind that there are people out there willing to make a movie that will maybe make people think. I agree that this is not about the second coming but that maybe we are being watched and that maybe we need a helping hand to get our act together
