God stick film or anti-religious film?

The clues of this film seem very obvious (note that the following key plots are revealed... However, in the 3.5-point film, are people really afraid of being leaked...)


The beginning of the film is a very peaceful and happy wedding scene. Kind of warmth.
The male protagonist took a video camera to shoot everywhere, and he was responsible for recording the wedding of his good friend (hereinafter referred to as male 2).
During the recording process, he always noticed a certain beauty. Just when I thought it was the story of the man who met his true destiny at a friend’s wedding, the woman’s boyfriend (hereinafter referred to as male 3) appeared as a guest. The topic of confession in time when you meet the goddess. (Well, in fact, if you look carefully, you will find that the beauty and the male lead and the male three are good friends originally, mainly my face is blind, and I don’t watch the movie seriously)
Well, it turns out that the famous flower is in charge, so the plot must be really moved by the male lead For the beauty, the third party succeeded. Just when I was thinking about it. Here comes the first turning point.
When the male 2’s parents-in-law and the male lead are in an elevator. The bride’s parents were very affectionate and were devout believers. They did not understand why the bride did not hold the wedding in the church. However, they expressed their willingness to respect the bride's choice.
At this moment, the bride's father said, it's so cold... and then... and died with the bride's mother.
Then the male lead ran out and found that many people outside were lying on the ground, expressionless and wide-eyed. But some people survived.
Then the bride went to find the Bible, and based on the trumpets, hail and fire, etc. that appeared before, it was determined that the doomsday judgment had come, and those who hung up in front had been "raptured". (See the explanation at the end of "rapture")
(Seeing this, I thought I would start to describe the sinful things the living people have done, and how they showed the evil in their hearts in order to survive... This is suffering. Has the battle royale affected...)
Behind is the description of various horror scenes and various escapes.
Then they ran to the church. The priest of the church suddenly woke up. He said that he used to be a missionary as a career for earning a living, and he had no true faith. Now that he understands, he must truly believe. So that night he was caught by the monster and hung up.
Later the bride also woke up and hung up. Then the bridegroom despised God and died.
Later, the beauty also hung up, and then the beauty’s boyfriend watched the last selfie of the beauty on the phone. She said that she had made a choice, so he also decided to accept the baptism. When he came out of the water, he also hung up.
At the end of the film, in the sound of chants, a large number of locust-like things fell from the sky (the film is said to be fallen angels), and people scattered and fled. End of film.

When I just finished reading it, I thought I could understand it the other way around. This film did not reflect any heavenly scenes. All people died when they decided to believe in God, and their deaths were terrible. The first batch of people who died had their eyes open. In the Chinese context, this can be regarded as a dead end. And those who have no faith are not punished. Two times in the film show that the Bible was burned to black ashes. At the end of the film, when the male 3 was about to be baptized, the male protagonist suddenly questioned: Faith is a monster drawn by faith. (When I saw this, I thought, wow, the whole drama is a big reversal, but unfortunately there will be no more later)
If it is a magical movie, can this movie really reflect the main idea of ​​believing in God for eternal life?

However, when I wrote this review, I checked what was "raptured" and found that I was still too simple. The explanation in the wiki means that in the eschatology of some conservative Protestant Christians (including fundamentalists, evangelicals, Pentecostals, Baptists, and many independent groups), living Christians will be simultaneously Send to heaven to be with Christ, and the mortal body will be sublimated into an immortal body. The rapture before the disaster believes that the rapture will happen at the beginning of the catastrophe. Those who accept Christ after being raptured will be martyred for their beliefs during the catastrophe. According to this explanation, the film mainly describes the scene of being raptured and the scene of the martyrdom of people who accepted the faith after being raptured.

At the end of the film, the male protagonist ran into a little sister in the library. The girl with the highest appearance in the film said, this is their choice, and you have to make your choice...

(Well, everyone has made a choice... bad movie!)
