| 1 | * AngstWhatAngst: Averted, at least compared to the books. Reactions to the Rapture include parents screaming for their missing children, rioting, and at least two separate cases of attempted suicide. |
| 2 | * HilariousInHindsight: In light of this movie, the reason Rayford Steele couldn't be taken to Heaven makes more sense now: [[Creator/NicolasCage Rayford]] [[DealWithTheDevil sold his soul to]] [[Film/GhostRider2007 Mephisto in 2007]]. |
| 3 | * QuestionableCasting: Creator/NicolasCage is Rayford in the reboot. Because when you think of the normal, stand-up guy, everyman Rayford, your mind instantly goes to over-the-top, insane, Nicolas Cage. If anything, many think Cage would have been better off cast as Nicolae Carpathia, TheAntiChrist. It also goes both ways: Cage actually does play Rayford as a straight man, but that only ends up most certainly being a bummer for everyone who went to see the movie expecting to see Cage at his usual LargeHam self. In the words of Rational Wiki: |
| 4 | -->"Here's how bad it is: they make a movie about the end of the world, starring Nicolas Cage, and they ''cast him in the role of the sane one''." |
| 5 | * SpecialEffectFailure: Towards the end of the film, when the characters are looking at a burning city from a distance, it's pretty obvious that they're looking at a greenscreen. |
| 6 | * TheUntwist: The Rapture. While probably everybody who was even vaguely familiar with the ''Left Behind'' franchise when the 2014 film premiered or did five minutes of Googling before watching it knew that it's the big mass-disappearance event that happens and why those who vanished were taken, the 2014 film leaves it unclear for the first hour and a half and then presents it as a big twist. |
