Crucifixion Quake (2020) User Reviews

10% science 90% emotional drama

[tonyinnebraska · 3/10 · 19 July 2021]

This film is damn weird. The main character of the documentary is a geologist that has deep emotional problems. He wants to prove that there was an earthquake at the hour Jesus was crucified. That's fine and a worthy pursuit. But most of the film involves this geologist talking about his emotional issues with metaphysical commentary thrown in by a few others. It's a shame could have been a great documentary.

Lacks conclusion

[spheric-92907 · 4/10 · 27 May 2023]

This documentary follows one man's quest to see if geology can prove that an earthquake took place as described in the gospel of Matthew. Unfortunately, he has not finished his study at the time of the documentary's creation. This did make it seem like the documentary did not have a clear goal or conclusion. Along with this, many different people from a variety of disciplines were interviewed. Most of these shared their differing viewpoints on the bible in general and did not comment regarding the quake specifically. This to led to a lack of clarity regarding what if any point the documentary was trying to make.

Detailed and scientific analysis of physical events relative to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ

[john_9a · 8/10 · 27 November 2020]

I randomly began watching this video. I generally don't watch the 'proof' type films. But as a 'background' movie to play while engaged in other work, I let it run. I starts slowly and somewhat odd with a focus on an apparently angry individual who is hurt by his rejection by scientist peers. As the film progresses it continuosly and progressively presents a wealth of valid information. I was very surprised at the validity and the strong case for the data presented. This was a suprise. I would recommend this video as a relevent historical study of the events in that period. Well done, engaging and featuring credible people.

Nothing historical about this 'documentary'

[forrenthouse · 2/10 · 14 January 2024]

I was hoping to watch something "historical" or "scientific" on the earthquake that happened at the crucifixion, but instead I was left feeling like I wanted to slit my wrists. This guy was so depressing, negative & whoa-is-me and that hippy hippy chick from Orlando was talking utter nonsense. Her segments had nothing to do with the relevance of the subject matter, other than to defend how he was feeling. There's nothing historical about this "documentary" at all. There is very little information pertaining to the earthquake or to the information he was gathering to get this crucifixion quake date. This show was all over place, interviews with people who were just as negative or just didn't want to be there. This show was utter nonsense, so don't waste your time.

An excellent scientific review, not without submit steps

[zmos99 · 10/10 · 7 May 2022]

An excellent scientific review, not without some missteps. This documentary does a good job reviewing the geologic evidence, and other scientific reasoning to support a specific date for the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Though not perfect, it makes an impressive case.

Unfortunately, in the interest of padding things, the show introduces an older lady who waxes poetic about things like archetypes, purpose, and synchronicity. Blah blah blah, pretty boring, but necessary to stretch this out to an hour and a half. Also disappointing is the nerdy atheistic "scholar" of the New Testament who continues to tell us why the gospels are unreliable without without presenting evidence for his claims.

The main protagonist in this documentary is a geologist whose mission in life is to find enough evidence to support a certain date for the crucifixion. When he and the other scientists are explaining what they do and what they have found, this show is definitely at its best. Unfortunately even he spends too much time sharing his feelings, philosophies, and other extraneous information not related to the task at hand. But if you can muddle through all that and focus on the scientific evidence, it's pretty breathtaking, and definitely fascinating.

Despite the annoying commentators, it's definitely worth watching for the scientific content. I strongly recommend.

Good, scientific approach to gospels

[PaleRider981 · 8/10 · 11 October 2022]

I experience synchronicity on regular basis and was/am on a similar mission so I can understand the anger, but even I feel this was too long as I was mainly interested in facts here.

I don't think the other parts were bad, just partially unnecessary for me.

All in all, a very interesting documentary - with a good story and good science.

It is really a shame that open-minded/neutral scientists are still rare on this planet.

But it's a bigger shame that those who do exist are marginalized and even mocked.

Hopefully, in the future that will not be the case so a documentary like this won't have to contain the emotional drama the neutral ones of us have to go through in our lives.

Another source for the earthquake.

Check out 3rd Nephi ch 8 in the "Book of Mormon." The chapter talks about the earthquake and turmoil. Believe the book or not it may be our interest to you.
