153 - Pt. 2 - Left Behind (RT)

Let’s get real: we’ve done far worse movies than LEFT BEHIND on this show, and their Tomatometer scores were much higher. But does that make this Nic Cage religious movie a good film, or just one that’s not as bad as, say, Ready to Rumble? Do you experience the rapture differently if you’re familiar with Chad Michael Murray’s career? And does the Kirk Cameron version of this story sound more interesting? Find out during Real Talk!
