I Enjoyed This Movie
I guess if you have seen this on Broadway you may be disappointed as stage shows generally do not translate well to the small screen or DVDs. However, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Donny Osmond was wonderful and the music was catchy and fun to listen to. One of the 'one star' reviewers said the women wore pasties. No, they didn't. You can clearly see they have on a leotard which is covered with a sheer coat. None of the actors were nude. In fact I thought the actors did a wonderful job. The settings were a little over the top but this is not meant to be a serious movie. It does stay true to the Biblical story.I've already watched this movie twice and I'm sure I will watch it again. The music is wonderful, the songs are funny and I love the fact the narrator interacted with the characters. If you're looking for a serious Biblical movie, this isn't it. If you're looking for a fun, colorful, well acted movie then you will not be disappointed.
