I really enjoyed this movie. I recommend to others who like biblical movies/stories. As I watched "Esther" I compared the scriptures to the movie. Most of the scenes lined up with the bible, there was only a few places that made me question the difference. Overall, I would recommend this to others, and I would even purchase to have in my own DVD library.

Great movie, excellent for the whole family really. The King and all his ranting gets annoying, but overall this version is better than "One Night With The King."

I really enjoyed this movie a lot! The acting I thought was overall very good - it is hard to find a movie that is biblical of this quality. There are some adult situations in it, so if you have little ones, you might want to preview it before watching with the whole family. I thought that they were handled very tastefully, but wanted to give a "heads up" to families. The cinematography was really good as were the sets and costume. Esther is a wonderful movie and I highly recommend it.
