DVD Reviews of Jacob (The Bible Collection)
DVD Review: Very close to Biblical account
Summary: 3 Stars
This film is very close (though not perfect) to the Biblical account. My family enjoyed watching this film, over all. Done pretty well, and can be powerful. You will not regret watching, if you like more accurate Biblical films for your collection. Brings the Bible to life, in a way.
We would like to recommend adding this one too, to anybody's Biblical movie shelf. But we have one exception which we'll address last herein.
It's done fairly well, Biblically accurate for the most part, and conveys the same message as the Scriptures tend to in the Biblical areas it traverses. Our family enjoyed this one, on many levels. We'd say "buy this one!" as it's pretty good....but....
The one exception to us recommending this film, is going to only strike a positive/helpful note with few people (we realize), but nevertheless....the problem we have with this film is that real live human beings with real life families (husbands, and/or wives, and/or children) are being intimate with other people outside of their family all for the sake of "it's just a job, it's acting." We personally don't believe that God will every approve body-close-holding and smooching, as "just a job so it's okay" when it comes to non-married people. You simply won't find that kind of behavior ever supported or condoned in the Bible. As i said, we realize this won't be a popular stance, in a Media-soaked culture, but nonetheless...it's the flat truth. So we cannot recommend you actually buy this film. There ARE films on the market, few though, that have actual actors who are husbands and wives being intimate on screen...or that have husbands and wives pictured who aren't married outside the movie but BARELELY touch in any intimate way (like FireProof, Facing the Giants, Time Changer, Flywheel, and others). We recommend you just place your own family member in the actor's spot, and see how you'd feel watching your partner or child doing the intimacy with a complete stranger (IN FRONT OF THEIR CHILDREN OR SPOUSE). Thanks for "listening."
