 Beautiful story, great film ! September 12, 2008
Beautiful story about Jesus Christ, the best I've watched. All of the actors look so natural, the music is superb and the text is so clear. Very interesting documentary about Jesus' public life but this is a film of about only 1,5 hours. I remember that the whole TV series was about 8 hours. It would be much better to ahve the whole series in a box set.
I am writing to you, most excellent Theophilus... April 14, 2008

This is my favorite film on the life of Jesus. It is based on the Gospel of Luke. Not every event in the film is in Luke's gospel or vice versa. But I enjoy this film nonetheless.
It is filmed in the Holy land and most of the actors are like those you see in that land. The acting is excellent. I appreciate that the director allows children to play roles in the movie, for Jesus loved children. Not like today, where people claim that "they are for the children" but then vote for politicians who saddle the children with an unbearable debt. At the end of giving the parable about the good Samaritan, Jesus asks "who acted as this man's neighbor?" and a small child answers. In Luke's gospel, a grown man answers, however the slight changing of events do not bother me since the message remains the same.
In the film you will often hear background voices. For example there is the occasion where a poor old lady deposits two small copper coins into the Temple treasury, since all she had were those two coins. As she is doing this, you can hear people in the background commenting, in cockneyed accents, "only a mite?" "can't she give more?" "it's very little." These sayings are not documented in the gospel but again, do not detract from the message; rather they emphasize our own sinful nature and our need to repent.

This is a good movie to share with your friends and family. My favorite is still the Gospel of John. With that said, this is still a good movie to get.
Best Jesus movie ever! October 20, 2006

If there is any Jesus movie that touches the hearts of men, this one does. I bought three of these and play them so much, I want to make sure I have it a long time. The fact that the words are taken entirely from the Bible, and portraying the life of Jesus simply and accurately without added "Hollywood" glamor, tinsel and big-name movie stars distracting the meaningful intentions of this story: that of our Lord and Savior here in the flesh over 2,000 years ago.
Excellent Film August 29, 2005

I they were selling this movie at my church when a special guest came one Sunday. I bought this movie and I have to agree that this is the best movie I have ever seen on the life, death and resurrection of my Lord Jesus Christ. I haven't seen "the Passion" yet, I plan to very soon and I have high hopes for the film, but this one is equally as good.
Very well done film that was done with great care, excellent movie I recommmend everyone see
