DVD Reviews of The Gospel of John

DVD Review: The Word of God, spoken
Summary: 5 Stars

You can follow this movie through the Book of St. John in the New Testament, and see that it is a word for word representation of that book. What a wonderful blessing to find a movie about Jesus Christ that has not been "adpated" to someone else's interpretation. I have watched this movie more times than I can count, as I love to hear the Words of my Lord being spoken to me; I often turn it on at night as I climb in bed, and find comfort falling asleep to His words, with the assurance that they are true to the Bible.

Thank you for making this film true to His Word! Very well acted and produced; very realistic; really brings the Book to life.

DVD Review: The Gospel of John
Summary: 5 Stars

There has always been plenty of movies about Jesus and His life here on earth. I was hoping to find this movie different
in some ways, being that it was His life according to John only. I was very pleased with it. For the first time they
depicted Jesus as looking Jewish which He was- and very believable in character. The two hour version seemed to "skim"
over details a bit- but obviously because of time constraints. So much to say in so little time. Over all this was a
beautifully done movie, and I was very glad to have gotten it. Am planning on passing it around my family. Thanks

DVD Review: Accurate and beautifully portrayed
Summary: 5 Stars

As a keen bible student I was impressed with the accuracy of the presentation. I followed the wording and emotional content as it was rendered in the Bible. The movie was both educational and very enjoyable. There appeared to be no attempt to deviate from the bible in any way. Nothing was sacrificed by adhering faithfully to the text of the bible translation used. A must see for any serious student of the bible particularly in these LAST DAYS.

DVD Review: Best version of John as an overview of Chritianity
Summary: 5 Stars

Many people suggest sending new Christians to read John as their first foray into the Bible. It will introduce them in the important tenets of being a follower of Jesus. This DVD is by far the most accurate and revealing portrayal of John that I have seen in a movie version. Kudos to the acting - especially of Jesus' character - it even revealed some new facets for me, and I am a longtime book of John fan. I am sending copies to my loved ones who want to know the Lord more.

DVD Review: Outstanding and true...
Summary: 5 Stars

I was stunned how this film moved me. I did not know what to expect, but I did suspect it was either 'Hollywoodized' or mediocre, as a result. Instead, I found it to not only be true to scripture (in fact, you can sit with your Bible and follow along, word for word)--- but performed with rare a depth. The acting, setting, costumes - everything, enhanced the story in meaningful ways. This is an excellant way to introduce those who are visually-oriented (as well as addicted to 'Hollywood' caliber drama) to the Gospel. A final note - by all means, watch the 3-hour version. The 2-hour one is good - but critical (in my opinion) verses are left out (i.e., when Jesus explains how the Judgement works).

Description of The Gospel of John

An epic in the spirit of THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, this widely acclaimed motion picture is a meticulous recreation of the turbulent era of Jesus and the events that changed the course of history! Narrated by Golden Globe nominee Christopher Plummer (Best Supporting Actor, AMERICAN TRAGEDY, 2000), it's the bold and powerful story of Jesus as told by his disciple John. The best-loved but least understood of the gospels, John presents a uniquely human portrait of courage and passion encompassing Jesus' entire three-year ministry, the final years of his life. Intimate and reflective, THE GOSPEL OF JOHN offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the incomparable life and times of Jesus Christ.
