Too many inconsistencies that don't make sense, nor change the storyline if they would've been acurate.

- Buck never referred to himself in public as Buck, it was always Cameron.
- Buck was a newspaper writer, not a TV reporter
- The GC didn't forbid people to go near the wailing wall this early in the series.
- Chloe is blonde in the books
- Dr. Benjudah (sp) didn't take the stand he did in the video. He never said there was no God, and he invited Buck to the wall, not the other way around.
- In the book, Nicolae didn't have outbursts like at the end of the video.
- Rayford didn't have to beg Hattie for the GC1 pilot job, he was practically pushed into it. Same for Buck.

Aside from these few examples, too many things were rushed through. I would love to have seen the part where Verna gets faced by her boss when she tries to give Buck a hard time.

I'm glad they made this into video, because it was simply entertaining, but I would highly recommend reading the book (the series, for that matter). If you don't, you're missing out on a great story.

I may have been a little skeptical about the first Left Behind at first, but then I realized it had a great message to it, and would really mean something in my life. When I saw the sequel, I definetely say this had more meaning to it. It had two characters become christians, which had really been far away from God in the first place, plus this gives people who don't know, more information about him.
It has been exactly one week since people all over the globe have disappeared without a trace. There's confusion everywhere, but not in a few newfound christians, Rayford Steele, Chloe Steele, Bruce Barnes, and Buck Williams. They now know that after what Buck experienced, Nicolae Carpathia, the peace leader of the world, and the secretary general to the UN, isw infact the antichrist. Buck, and Rayford want to help out as much as they can in stopping him, but it may mean giving the devil himself a little help first. They have only one goal, and that's to try and bring more people to God in anyway they can.
I now own this movie, and glad about it. I still believe the rapture is coming, so I'm careful. Just incase, you'd better be prepared as well.

I kept waiting for the best part of the BOOK, where Chloe was mad at Buck concerning finding Ivy at his apartment, and she thought he had sent her flowers and she kept telling him " the flowers are in the trash." Very humurous.

Buck was not with Rayford when he went home and found his wife and son gone..and Chloe was away at school and not involved in a car wreck on the freeway and she didn't get back home that same day.

Buck did not already know Hattie because they met after the disappearances on the plane when he kept trying to plug in his computer to a jack and she told him he could not, but finally let him after he intorduced himself as a newspaper reporter (Not TV reporter) and he tried to contact her family FROM THE AIR for her.

Buck and Chloe met at the airport terminal,(not at her house) where they had went for a walk and she had eaten a cookie and gotten it on her mouth, Buck wiped it off with his hand and licked his finger. The movie has that happen toward the end of the movie, long after the couple had met, as he was boarding a plane...not so and he did not even lick his finger.

Also Hattie DID NOT go to work for Carpathia first and introduce Buck to him, it was the other way around. Buck went to work for NC first and introduced Hattie to him.

That made no sense, cause all through the book and even the continuing books (I have read them all) Buck talks about how he has regretted introducing her to him.

The book also emphasizes the fact that there is a fence around the wailing wall surrounding the witnesses.

Ben Judah encouraged Buck to go there in the book, not the other way around as the movie indicated.

So many differences I can't name them all here, but I hope the future movies will not be made BEFORE someone reads the books, I mean they are suppose to be like the book they are based on. RIGHT?

I can watch this movie again and again, only a few problems:

(1) The priceless Buck and Chloe story in Tribulation Force is a little rushed by in the movie.
(2) IVY! I think she's funny, but I just didn't see any reason for her character.(She also helps to spoil the Buck/Chloe scene)
(3) The witnesses were good, but also rushed by.
Generally, I think the casting is great, the message is great, overall the movie is excellent.

Ive read Tribulation Force, and have seen the first movie,and have recently seen this one. Doesn't meet the same quality of the first movie, which closely followed the book. This movie cuts out almost half the book. I mean, it stopped after just showing the two witnesses. It cuts out the signing of the treaty, and Buck and Chloe's relationship, and wedding, along with Rayford new relationship with Amanda White. It just doesn't meet the same standard as the first Left Behind movie.

Left Behind 1 & 2 are excellent movies and people must see them. Both movies follow the books and just like the books, when you start to watch these movies, you won't be able to stop. The acting is superb and I would consider this a top flight movie. I would recommend to everyone.

I have seen both Left Behind I, Left Behind II - Tribulation Force, and have the entire Left Behind book series. I believe that this is one of the most important series ever. Both movies follow the book closely but not in as much detail. The movies especially Left Behind II - Tribulation Force should be seen after you have read the book for full enjoyment, but is very enjoyable by itself. I really love this movie and hope that the entire series will eventually be put into movie format.

After watching the first movie which was totally awesome, I just had to go out the next day and buy this one. Although not as good as the first as it drags on for the 1st hour, the last 1/2 hour definately made it interesting again.

I don't see why Chloe's romantic interest in Buck was enphasized so much. I don't think that was needed in the movie, or atleats not that dragged out.

However, if you saw the first you definately do want to see this one too and see how it continues and see some of the "miracles" of Christ. Can't wait for the 3rd in the series, but I may just have to buy the book on CD, since I don't think I can wait.

Not being a big reader I chose to watch the movies first...Big Mistake, because I was left wanting to more story so I picked up boook 3 assumeing that is where movie 1 and 2 stopped....I was so lost becuase entire crucial characters were left out. Events like marriages were left out...the movies just do not follow the books. I had hoped they would have follwed the novels as closely as the harry potter movies followed the books but i was disappointed. Although the movie are still good to see but don't expect a pictorial depiction of the books.

I absolutely love the left behind books, but this movie did them no justice. It was creepy and very weird. I don't know what else to expect from the company that made it, however. It is a very weird company.
