Honesty is the Best Policy: This is BAD
This show is nearly unwatchable. It's that bad.I love the story of Joseph, and I when I first saw it on stage I had tears in my eyes. It's a timeless tale of faith & forgiveness. So, I was excited when I saw this on Netflix and decided to watch it. Unfortunately, the over-the-top makeup & bad acting, simply doesn't do this story justice. Maybe this story is best viewed on stage. Or maybe this is just a plain BAD movie.Do yourself a favor, and watch for this play to come to your town. Find a date, or take your family, and trust this reviewer: You'll see, hear, and feel a story that's magical. Don't ruin it by watching this DVD.Sometimes it's put on by a Broadway production, sometimes by one of the schools or various stage organizations. I've seen it 3 times now. Twice by 2 different "Christian Youth Theater" Groups (High School kids), and once by a Broadway production. The CYT production was better than the Broadway production. Those kids could really sing, and were very creative with the various skits.
