content: I completely agree with McNamara's review. This is more a narrative with pictures than a dramatic film. For dramatization, try 'The Bible ... in the beginning' by J. Huston or 'Noah', from the BBC's 'Bible in animation' series. It is incongruous to depict the Creation and paradise in an almost desert environment. The film 'drags' slowly through the stories we know so well from the Book of Genisis. There are some redeeming features however. Some of the filming is very artistic, with some stunning visuals. I believe that E. Morricone composed the score for the film. You will be treated to wonderful back-ground music, with a middle-east flavour.
