Son Of God

Good Lenten movie.

HUSBAND LOVED THIS BIBLE STORY ALSO...

Roma Downey has done her usual expert retelling of biblical narratives. In addition to this DVD she has produced a complete retelling of the bible from the creation, through the great flood, the Babylonian Captivity, the Nativity of Jesus, His development into manhood and his ultimate Crucifixion and Resurrection. Diogado Morgado is excellent as Jesus and Greg Hicks is outstanding as Pontius Pilate. The DVD ends with St. John, still exiled on the Island of Patmos, has a final encounter with the Risen Christ as the movie comes to and end. Going beyond that, Disk 4 of the biblical epic also produced by Roma takes us after the resurrection, through the feast of Pentecost, the emergence of St. Paul as the ultimate nemesis for Christianity until he was thrown from a horse and had a face-to-face encounter with the resurrected Jesus. Other biblical narratives in the same time frame are excellently and professionally presented by Roma Downey and her international retinue of actors and support personnel. Everyone who has spent time reading the bible, Old and New Testaments should not only watch this DVD by the entire four-disk biblical epic. Can't do better than that, except reading the "real thing."

I love watch spiritual movies and this was amazing. Definitely a must watch.

I disliked nothing. The actor that played Jesus, Diogo Morgado, was incredible. I love the movie; I love what it inspired within me. Between The Bible and the Son of God, my faith and belief has increased as these two movies were more realistic than earlier presentations of the Bible. I could associate what occurred in Jesus' life as though it were yesterday as the portrayal of human beings was very truthful. It's one thing to watch how incredible the leaders of the Bible were but it's another thing to be able to relate those leaders, i.e., Moses, Joshua, Abraham, the 12 Apostles, as human beings who sin as all of us do. To be able to relate to how others treated the Apostles is unbelievable. The positiveness of Peter was unreal. I will be watching these two DVDs many, many times as they guide me greatly.

It was well acted It was also very up lefting. it was lighter than most movies about Christ he is happier in this movie more than other movies about Christ Christ is usually painted as very serious and sad most of the time in this movie he smiles sometimes and is joyful at times.

Faithful for most part to scripture. Actors, particularly Jesus are beyond touching, moving and powerful in their moments. You will love it. A good teaching film regarding our teacher, savior, Son of God.

Why 4 Stars? I simply did not receive a "New" copy, which is what I paid for, it seems like I got a returned "Like New" copy, that was resealed, restocked and sold as a "New" condition, there's an obvious tear at the top (Refer to the photos), either that, or it was a mistake on Amazon's warehouse side.As for the code, I did not test the digital code yet, but I will eventually, will update once I do.General Issues:-Nothing in the photobook (Its the case itself) actually holds the discs in place, they will fall easily if you're not careful, you can hold them in place using any magic tape for now if you're as worried as I am, although, don't worry too much about the discs moving freely during shipping, the surface of the paper holding the discs, around and beneath the discs doesn't seem to be able to scratch them or let them escape, if sealed.P.S: Don't throw the back paper away, it has the proof of purchase number on it, in case you may ever need/want it.Details:-Price (At the Time of Purchase): $13.61Condition: NewWeight: 7.7 oz / 219.3 gSeller (Sold By): ULTIMATE BEST OF BESTShipped From: AmazonDiscs: 2 [1x DVD (Left Side) + 1x Bluray (Right Side)]Case Material: Thick Paper (Its the 28 Pages Photobook)Inserts: 3 (1x UltraViolet DigitalHD Code)Region: A/NTSC (US & Canada)Ratings: PG-13Screen Mode: Widescreen 2.35:1Runtime: 2 Hrs 18 Mins (138 Mins)Audio/Dubs: EN DTS-HD 5.1, ES DD 5.1 (DD 2.0 on DVD), FR DD 5.1 (DD 2.0 on DVD)Subtitles: EN, ES, FRImage Quality: 1080p/FHD on Bluray, SD on DVD
