Review of The Nativity Story (2006) by Brendan — 16 Apr 2007
With good scenery, good costumes and a classic story it had everything right but was a little below par. The Nativity Story had some dramatic scenes but it missed that unexplained edge that makes you feel for the characters.
One reason for this though was that for one reason or another Mary didn't show any emotion. You waited for her to be strong, cry, smile something but no, a frown never left here face and it was almost frustrating.
This and other things didn't help the story move along and in the end it very much tilted to the boring side. Someone who is very religious however may find it to be remarkable and breathtaking.
