Guadalupe: The Miracle and the Message (2015) User Reviews

A moving and thoughtful documentary

[barbosa-vicki · 8/10 · 3 January 2023]

A beautiful documentary, narrated by Jim Caviezel, exploring the origin, some of the miraculous elements of the image of our Lady of Guadalupe, and the effect it has had on the Americas and throughout the world.

I enjoyed the flashback scenes of Juan Diego's encounter with Our Lady and events of the past. The effect of his encounter on the indigenous people was astounding and a sign of God's great love for all people. The appearance of Our Lady did away with human sacrifice and replaced that with worship and adoration.

I also enjoyed the comments made by priests and historians in Spanish, which were subtitled, but since I understand Spanish it was good to have those to listen to.

Outstanding

I believe ...

However, to KOC and the Catholic Church I say, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath ...". ...yeah, the commandment you conveniently left out. You might want to look at the First Commandment again too.

This is Catholics' propaganda and does disservice to Virgin Mary, if she did appear under the title of Our Lady of Guadalupe. There are better films on the subject which fortunately I saw before this because after this I began to doubt that the Event ever occurred.

Heads up for imbecility exploitation

Lying for attention, childish ignorance, a grave misapprehension, a good story told even better, transcription of the emperor's new clothes, indoctrination issues, synaptic misfiring; all mentioned way better and plausible as actual explanations than the ones obviously impossible to scrutinise proclaimed by the clergy. So far nothing has been presented even by the locals coming close to a reasonable approach to the claimed event based on the account of one infamously wayward individual, which if nothing else demonstrates the underlying apetite for reputation being far more of an incentive behind keeping a collective narrative together than that of genuineness qua intellectual honesty.
