Negative Positive
Title: Nicely done
Review: I have owned this movie for years, but someone in my house lost the disc and I had to buy a new copy to finally watch the movie! I enjoyed the setting, actors, clothing, and dialog. The script writer fleshed out the familiar characters nicely. I enjoyed the Maji's study of the stars as we had just watched the documentary "The Star of Bethlehem." I was disappointed that the movie was not historically accurate that the Maji did not come to visit the baby Jesus until he was older, possibly a toddler (not still in the stable, or at the same time as the shepherds). Also, the order to kill the babies under the age of two did not come until Jesus was older (when the Maji actually came to visit him). My husband pointed out that it is called "The Nativity Story" and a Nativity scene comes complete with three wise men. Overall a good movie. I will watch it again.
Is the review positive or negative?
