Pure Flix What If... DVD

Middle-aged Ben happily pursues his materialistic goals---until a visit from an angelic mechanic throws a "wrench" into his worldview! When the angel permits Ben to see the man he would have been had he followed God's call to marriage and the ministry, will the glimpse of what he's missing remind him of what he truly wants? Dove approved. Rated PG. Approx. 118 minutes.

I really enjoyed this movie. I don't watch movies with curse words or anything that takes The Lord's name in vein. I was able to share this with friends and family that usually watch your typical foulmouthed Hollywood garbage and they all really enjoyed it too. I pray they realize a movie can be good without all the garbage.

I liked this movie. It is a great message about learning what is important in life and listening to God and the choices we make. I enjoyed watching the movie with my elderly mom. These days so many movies have too much sex, violence or swearing in them that my mom won't watch them, but this movie was enjoyable for both of us. I did not give it an excellent because you could tell it was low budget and also, there was not as much drama with the changes in the characters as I would have liked, although I will say that I liked the ending!

I liked the film as entertainment and it did bring many good points across (how God has a completely different and BETTER path for us, the importance of choices, God's ever present grace for past bad choices, the thief on the cross scene- man reached on his death bed,etc.). Great acting (even the little girl), production, etc. Very funny. However, it is somewhat like 'The Encounter' film. It can't be taken as Biblical theology or doctrine. In real life, when a person walks away from a calling of God on their life, or walks away from Him as he tries to reveal Himself, there are very painful consequences that are not experienced by these characters. It's likely, if not definite, the story would have ended differently in real life. Good film if followed by solid Biblical instruction to those who are'nt close to Christ or His Word. Appreciate Pureflix immensely. : )

This movie has everything that a family would love. It's filled with laughter. The family is modern but charming, and it has one of the most moving witnessing scenes in it. It's a movie to love.

I think the movie has a good message for all to apply their own life. We often think about "what if's", but to see it played out in a movie, was quite interesting to consider how things could be different if the "what if's" came true. I will certainly pass it on to friends.

A great remake of The Family Man, but with a Christian message. Faithbased movies are getting better and better. I am going get more Pure Flix movies.

This film far exceeded my expectations. The acting is top quality, and had a great storyline from start to finish. Never was there any cheesy moments or boring scenes. A few of us young adults watched it together and truly enjoyed it!!

I was disappointed say the least. I was looking forward to watching this movie to only be disappointed, why you may ask. because it resembles a worldly movie called ' family man'. when the movie started I could almost tell right away. I almost knew what was goi.ng to happen next. the only thing different is just a few things a long story line. but all in
all, the same. are Christian writers getting very desperate they have to almost copy another movie? the movie is good its own way but I was disappointed that it copied another one. I guess for people who have not seen the other worldly movie family man', this movie is ok.

I bought this movie because Kevin Sorbo was in it. I am so glad I did. This is a wonderful, Christian movie filled with food for thought and a great performance by Kevin Sorbo. The other actors were good too.

The church shows movies each month and this one was very good. Very good acting and even better story to tell. The church would recommend this movie to anyone. This is a very good family movie. Don't see many made this way anymore.

Good family movie with a deep rooted message. I saw it with my teen and pre-teen daughters. Young or old the movie provided a feeling of gratitude for what have.
