Product Description Based on James Redfield's novel, this movie follows explorer John Woodson (Settle) as he undergoes an enlightening experience while searching for some
Amazon.com The Celestine Prophecy is an action-adventure adaptation of the hit novel by James Redfield, a film that moves so swiftly it can be difficult at times to absorb the New Age philosophy tucked into Redfield's multiple, so-called Insights. Matthew Settle plays an American history teacher who travels to Peru to look into the discovery of an ancient manuscript that foretells the arrival of a new spirituality. The Peruvian government and Catholic church, threatened by something that might supplant traditional religion and mainstream values, harass and arrest the scientists and enlightened souls who discovered the manuscript. Our hero becomes involved in a dangerous effort to keep the document from official hands; along the way, he's introduced to the prophecy's major principles, which arouse his dormant spiritual abilities. Annabeth Gish, Hector Elizondo, and Jurgen Prochnow are a welcome presence in this light and sometimes confusing, if casually engaging work that requires repeat viewings to fully hear its interesting message. --Tom Keogh More Celestine Prophecy on Amazon.com Stills from The Celestine Prophecy (click for larger image)

For once, a movie that follows a great book. September 9, 2010 Wolf Boy (China Grove, NC United States) The Celestine Prophecy was very enjoyable. The movie was rented a couple of years prior; since then I wanted to buy it because it made the book come to life. Most movies differ from the book to a degree, however "The Celestine Prophecy" movie follows the book very well, and is recommended if you're looking for a visual example of what the book would be like to watch.
Awesome movie September 1, 2010 V. Vital This is a great movie. And a testament to why authors should be involved in the development of movies about their books. The movie was very faithful to the book. I actually enjoyed the movie more than the book. The movie is spiritual but not dogmatic. And the so-called insights outline a beautiful way to live and view the world. Hopefully society is moving towards the Ninth Insight! Victor
Celestine Prophecy DVD August 21, 2010 Michael Brown (Laguna Hills, CA United States) The purchase was easy including finding what I wanted and making the purchase.
