      Wonderful!

      I can't say enough about how wonderful this movie was. It is a joy looking through the eyes of Dickens youngest & exuberant son Walter. The story is told in such a way that isn't too heavy for children yet conveys the story without watering it down The animation was superb, the humor delightful the flow rhythmic.

      I wasn't prepared for the opening scene, but once I understood, about 5 sec in, it became one of my favorite humorous scene. It makes for a impactful & entertaining family outing. We had 4 children in tow ages almost 3 to 11. They all enjoyed it & the almost 3 yr old did not get fidgety until the last 15 min.

      Impressed is an understatement

      I'm a huge fan of Angel Studios. I watch every movie they come out with. I'm a member of the guild.

      When I first saw this movie preview I was excited and then skeptical. The movie looked great in the preview but I wasn't to sure about it being made by Seong-ho Jang. He is amazing with visual effects, but a South Korean telling the story of Jesus with a release date near Easter, made me a little skeptical. Well, he knocked it out of the park.

      The story telling using the Princess Bride type narration was brilliant. It keeps the audience engaged and was very easy to understand for kids. It was all around great for family friendly.

      If you purchase tickets through Angel they were doing a buy an adult ticket get a kid ticket for free.

      Loved it!

      My husband ad I took our grandkids, ages 11 to 17, and we all enjoyed it! Loved how the Bible came to life on the screen! The most important Biblical stories told with truth and without fabrication. Messages were clear and well taken even for my youngest grandson.

      Engaging and lovable characters from the start to the finish. I laughed and cried and absolutely fell in love with the cat!

      Loved the ending when the father removed the sign he had taped on his office door. Such a reminder to all of us of what is truly important and how much our children learn by our example.

      Highly recommend it for all ages!

      Don't miss this opportunity!

      We took our grandkids yesterday - 6 and 9 - and we all loved this story in a story, a traditional retelling of the life of Jesus as told by Charles Dickens to his son. Our six-year-old was so moved by the resurrection that she bowed on her face in worship. The storytellers did a good job of weaving together representative moments from the gospels to keep the story moving and yet contained within the hour and forty minutes allotted. It captured well the very essence of who Jesus is as the Son of God and God in the flesh and what He came to earth to do to redeem us from our sins. Great conversations after. An opportunity not to be missed by Christian families.

      My 12 year old son and I loved this movie.

      The voice acting was great.

      The way HIS life was portrayed brought me to tears multiple times.

      Visuals were very good, and they way the integrated the child he is telling the story to in to the story kept it interesting.

      If you want a family friendly movie to take your kids to this is it.

      We enjoyed the music as well.

      I don't understand why this review has to be so long as I am a short and to the point type of person, and don't appreciate long winded answers to things that can be shared in a short period of time, thank you for listening, this should take my review of this great movie over the limit.

      • Trivia
        Charles Dickens really did write a children's book about the life of Jesus. He wrote it for his own children and read it to them every Christmas. It wasn't published until 64 years after his death.
      • Goofs
        The picture Charles shows his son of Adam and Eve being driven out of the garden, is by Gustave Dore'. Dore' was born in 1832. Therefore, he would have been 8 years old when the action takes place. Therefore, the picture could not have been in the Bible.
