Movie Reviews of David and Bathsheba
Movie Review: Dataed but watchable
Summary: 3 Stars
This is is a semi-"spectacular" Bible story in a dated Hollywood style. It starts out as a corny love story with stilted acting and very nice sets and costumes. It gets better toward the end where they lay out the difficult matter of justice and whether God will be forgiving of David's murder of Bathsheba's husband.
All in all it is still watchable today, though I think the first half takes special patience. The second half does pick up some but nevertheless may only be of interest if you like to or are willing to ponder matters of sin and forgiveness and are willing to consider that there might actually be some historical meat here in terms of actuality or at least in terms of traditional beliefs. Otherwise consider that this film is pretty dated and the sets and costumes are its most notable features.
The special feature Once in 3000 Years cut off during Peck's meeting with the script writer each time I tried in vain to get it to work and this was annoying. I don't know if this is in the disc or a matter of incompatibility with my player.

Summary: 3 Stars
A great film of it's era; Gregory Peck is always wonderful to behold. However, be aware of the fictional parts of the story told here. Take it as entertainment and some insight into Jerusalem, culture and David's life in 1000 BC. But recognize the parts that are fiction and believe the story as told in the Bible.Movie Review: David bathshaba movie

As we know this is famous Bible move. I had seen this very long times ago when I was young. I wanted to see this again. I hope to say just this old move.
