We watched this movie Sunday night. When it was on at the theater last Christmas we never got a chance to go see it, so we decided to rent it while it was available on cable. Some movies I've seen that were supposed to be based on the Bible took way too many liberties, but this was actually a good movie. It wasn't perfect, but it was good. Definitely worth seeing. The journey to Bethlehem really portrayed what it must have been like. I had never given it enough thought, but seeing Joseph struggle to lead Mary on the donkey up rocky trails until his feet were bleeding and how they had no shelter at night in the open plains, made me think about it. I liked it. Despite some flaws, but it was mostly accurate and a lot of dialogue came from Scripture. There is a much better review of it at http://www.pluggedinonline.com/movies/movies/a0002990.cfm.
