What is the movie The Hopeful about?
William Miller’s faith is in ruins. After miraculously surviving a fierce battle in the War of 1812, Miller questions why God spared him. His search for wisdom leads to an astonishing prophesy — the world is going to end.
The Hopeful un-folds as a story of a man burdened with the knowledge of Christ’s return. Miller’s message resonates with some—even as it is scorned by others. When a young woman named Ellen Harmon listens to one of his sermons she is transformed.
And through her witness the message begins to take flight. The preaching grows beyond prophecy and develops into a more holistic vision for how Christians should live and worship. We see blossoming the seeds of a new global movement of faith —the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

My review
The Hopeful is a touching Christian movie set on a steamship in 1874. It follows John Andrews, a widower, who tells his two children a story to comfort them on the their ocean voyage. The story, filled with courage, hope, war, and true love, feels like it starts at the world’s end.
This movie beautifully combines history with the search for meaning and forgiveness, touching viewers’ emotions and thoughts. It is more than just a film; it encourages us to think about what keeps us steady during hard times.
It’s a reminder that God doesn’t give us anything that we cannot handle. This message is one that everyone will be able to relate to which makes this a wonderful family film.
Finally, this movie is only in theaters April 17 and 18.So, be sure to buy tickets here.
