DVD Review: For people who like this kind of thing, this is the kind of thing you'll like.
Summary: 4 Stars
It takes a little while to get used to what you're watching here. It's not actually a movie so much as an enactment. The writers do some clever and welcome things with the material, and are pretty creative at overcoming or even making virtues out of the limitations of the text. But it is, still, very much the text. It also takes a while to get used to the relentlessly American accent of the lead actor, although in his favor, his portrayal of Jesus is the most joyous and exuberant I've ever seen.
The production is only occasionally hampered by what is obviously a lower budget. Most of the time it doesn't matter. Occasionally, though, it's a little "Ooooh, ouch."
Worthy of particular mention is the set-piece of the Sermon on the Mount. Finally, someone this side of Godspell gets that there was comedy involved in Jesus' preaching! Yay!
Overall, I'm extremely pleased with my purchase here. A few DVD extras would have been nice, but -- oh, well.
