Their writings have launched nations and transformed cultures. They are arguably the two most influential minds of the last millennium, and now they have returned from their lengthy retirements for a one-time engagement. Weighing in at five-hundred years old, the undisputed heavyweight Defender of the Faith, John Calvin, faces off in a lively debate against his two-hundred-year-old opponent and the reigning champion of modern and post-modern thought — Mr. Origin of Species himself — Charles Darwin. This engaging “Boxing Match of the Millennium” demonstrates the clear antithesis between the competing worldviews of Christianity and Darwinism — a battle of the birthday boys never to be repeated again!
Unfortunately, while theconcept of this film isa lotof fun,thefilm itselfis less so. Theactors are not very convincing, especially as theyreadthe "debate"—eventhe moderator reads his lines! The sound is also somewhat difficult to hear.
