The night before Christmas, I called my teen sons into the front room and slipped this movie into the CD player. I felt the boys needed to take a quick journey away from the commercialism of Christmas, and travel back in time to see and feel what it might have been like to have experienced that first Christmas long ago.
The movie not only held the interest of my sons...but, also, centered on Joseph--his struggles, his loyalty to Mary and his humaness. I felt his "character" was an excellent role model for my sons.
I especially appreciated that the movie was realistic and believable. I feel great care was taken to relay the story in a historically accurate way. Great job--great movie!

A little graphic for young ones, but I liked seeing the story on screen to appreciate the reason we celebrate Christmas. More a historical approach than sentimental.

So it seems since the Passion of the Christ many movies have come out trying to portray what events found in the Bible might really have been like. At some points the movie is kind of slow but overall is a really good movie. I love the dynamic elements between Joseph and Mary. It really got me thinking about how it might have felt to be in there shoes... normal people trying to live the truth found in the Torah... and God chose to use them in order to change the world forever - through His Son.

This movie provides an excellent recap of the lives of Mary and Joseph leading up to Jesus's birth. As with most movies, there are some minor inconsistencies between the story reflected in the movie and what is written in the New Testament. One such inconsistency is how the story tells about the three magi who are following the signs from the stars in hopes of Jesus's birth. According to the New Testament (Matthew 2:10), "When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy." Once they noticed the stars lined up while on their horses, they seemed more at peace than overly excited. Additionally, according to the movie these three magi were close to Bethlehem the night of his birth and followed the light from the three stars to find the newborn child. However, according to the New Testament (Matthew 2:11), the magi (an unidentified number) actually went to Mary and Joseph's house and fell down to worship him, then presented the gifts. They probably chose to show the magi that same night to go along with the story as it is familiarly retold. Another example of a part of the movie that seems a bit off is when Mary is shown in the movie to witness John's birth and then returns home but in Luke 1:56, Mary returns home and in Luke 1:57, Elizabeth gives birth.
Nevertheless, overall I believe it was very realistic and fairly close to what is recorded in the New Testament. For example, King Herod's rule and the Roman oppression seemed accurately portrayed, especially during the scenes of innocent killing, tax collections, and ordering the census. The angel appearing for Zechariah, Mary, Joseph and the shepherds seemed accurately represented according to the Bible as well. Even the part where Zechariah was unable to talk due to him not believing the angel in the temple and then later having to write his son's name, John, on the tablet which suddenly allowed his tongue to loosen is as mentioned in Luke, chapter 1.
