Review:
Fantastic cinematography! So real it almost takes you back to that time.
It is quite an interesting depiction of the Bible. I read it everyday, and appreciated the true nature of most of the parts. So much so, watching stirred many emotions inside.
I have to admit though, there were moments I wasn't crazy about. Mainly, I thought it was too quirky a way to show good and evil. Okay, quirky might the wrong term, but more like childish. Do you really want people to believe God had secret warriors of good and evil?? I can't begin to imagine what effect that image would have on impressionable young minds.... 
Thankfully, those parts are so few and far between, they may not even matter much. In the end, they weren't what I remembered about the miniseries. I was stuck with memories of what I hold dear in the Bible such as Moses and Jesus.
I know a lot of you will love this miniseries, even with the weird way of depicting forces. Don't worry, I loved it in the end too.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
