Movie Reviews of Mary, Mother of Jesus
Movie Review: Great movie about Mary and Jesus realtionship
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this movie. Both actors for Mary( one plays Mary at Jesus birth and the other( Pernilla August, plays the mother in Starwars)plays Jesus after he is 12 years old, are doing a great job. Mary is portait as a strong gentle woman full of faith. Even that I'm not catholic I still love this movie(except one scene after John the Baptist is killed they show his body w/o his head. They really could have left that one out.) It also shows Marys close and good realtionship w/ Jesus( Christian Bale, who also plays in Little Women) He is portrait as a powerful, but loving gentle man who smiles often( not like in some other Jesus movies where Jesus never smiles)
Summary of Mary, Mother of Jesus
Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 09/13/2005 Run time: 91 minutes Rating: NrThis TV movie doesn't venture far from biblical accounts to dramatize the life of the Virgin Mary. It gets off to a promising start by showing Mary to be a resourceful and brave teenager, as she stands up to Roman soldiers who come thundering on horseback into her village. The production then proceeds chronologically, and the major events of Mary's life, and the life of Jesus, are played out in dramatic fashion. Mary is portrayed as having to face a series of struggles and tests of faith, from the time when she is terrified to meet the messenger of God who foretells the birth of the Messiah to her witnessing the brutal scene of her son's crucifixion. As the movie deals with material that will, of course, be familiar to most viewers, an unavoidable problem is that there are few surprises, and while the script does attempt to fill in some nuances of Mary's life, at times the dramatic portrayals can't help but seem forced. Mary, Mother of Jesus was obviously a labor of love by the executive producers, Eunice Kennedy Shriver and her son Bobby Shriver, and while it may not always succeed dramatically, the story is told coherently and some viewers will find it an inspirational paean to a revered religious figure. --Robert J.
