What You Need To Know
ATAL FLAW is a short thriller depicting the terror of sin’s condemnation and God’s judgment as well the redemptive power of Christ’s sacrifice.
The movie is about a man named Ridecher who’s struggling with a gambling problem. He gets into a fight with his wife on the way to church, which gets worse when he receives a call from his gambling boss about a big game. The emotional tension in the car causes him to get into a fender bender. At this point, he abandons church to go watch the game.
Ridecher then gets picked up by two debt collectors. When he gets knocked out, the setting switches to an interrogation room symbolizing Ridecher’s final judgement before God. With the help of a frightening interrogator, Ridecher takes a look at his past to find he’s truly guilty of breaking God’s law. In the face of condemnation, Ridecher is in a great need of a redeemer to pay his debt.
FATAL FLAW is a suspenseful take on man’s final judgement that will leave everyone to realize their need for a savior. The presentation of Ridecher’s guilt and his redemption by a mysterious man is a clear picture of the part of the gospel of Christ. It is much more intense than most Christian productions and includes violent scenes of torture and murder. The interrogator is heartless and cruel even though he’s depicted as carrying out God’s intentions. The movie comes off with a high level of intensity and suspense.
However, the intensity is trumped by poor acting. Many of its situations are also overdramatized, taking away from their intended meaning.
FATAL FLAW provides a new perspective of God’s judgment as a suspense thriller. It clearly depicts the seriousness of sin in a man’s life.
