    I thought this movie did a great job depicting the birth of Jesus, and really held interest from beginning to end. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

    This was a great movie for Christmas. This is one of the best historical accounts of Jesus birth I have ever seen. Thank you Hollywood!

    I really liked how this movie brought the events of the story to life. The boys would pick up pieces of our nativity set to play (particularly the angel) when the angel would appear in the movie. It was wonderfully educational for them.
