I enjoyed this production. I am not a Catholic. I originally saw it on television several years ago. It was well acted. It was told in flashbacks. It is a good projection, even though is a bit disjointed. I recommend it.

I loved this movie. It was short and compact but bringing down to tears. True story of a true man, who loved God, his country and all human race above all. I am proud to be polish and I will never forget his words - Have no fear. Be not afraid.

I don't understand why ABC broadcasted this movie, the only reason I find is that they tried to shadow CBS's own effort to conmemorate the life of John Paul II, but what they got was a cheap, bad performed version. When I saw it, I thought of it as an insult to the life of this Great Pope and not as a recognition to it. The actors where not up to their standards, it seamed that it was done as quickly as possible. If you really want to learn about the life of JPII or you are a catholic who loved the Pope and want to buy a movie of his life to cherish in the future better get KAROL the man who became Pope or CBS version starting Cary Elwes and John Voight (I don't remember the title) which were done with love and respect.
