4 out of 5 stars Okay movie.......2007-01-19

It is a good movie for children, but it's a little boring. Some children that are use to all the Disney's movies might not be able to sit through this. Also the artworks and music is not good. Recommend this movie for 5th graders and up.

4 out of 5 stars Don't let the title fool you!.......2006-08-08

Don't let the title of this video fool you! It does not only include the story of the Lion's Den but takes Daniel from the time of his captivity and includes many stories from his life and the Book of Daniel. Nebuchadnezzar's dream, the writing on the wall, etc.
This video was very helpful in illustrating the study of the book of Daniel for my Sunday School class. Even though it is animated, some scenes may be somewhat scarey for very small children (preschool) but it is an accurate depiction of the Bible.

4 out of 5 stars Goodcartoon for kids!.......2006-07-25

This cartoon was a good film for my kids to learn a great bible story.

4 out of 5 stars Great value.......2005-07-22

You can't go wrong with this when the price is so low. The animation quality is like that typically seen in basic Saturday morning cartoons, which is good enough for kids. What I like is that all the videos in this series give all the important details of the story, rather than giving a shallow, watered-down version as is usually the case in children's stories. These will entertain preschoolers up through junior high and the script is very closely based on the scriptural account. The only reason I didn't give this series a 5 is that each video has a hokey song that could definitely have been left out, but for such a low price and good script, I can overlook that.

5 out of 5 stars Great video with accurate Bible facts.......2003-05-28

I purchased this dvd along with Jonah and the whale (part of the Greatest Heroes and Legends of the Bible)very sceptically. I was debating about another Bible series videos which has more actual videos but is much more costly. When I first watched it with my 2 1/2 yr old, I found the animation well done. The actual events in the movie were fairly accurate. Charlton Heston gives a brief synopsis before the video. My daughter loves this video and we plan to purchase more in this series.

5 out of 5 stars quality biblical "edutainment" for the whole family.......2005-10-30

This is my favorite story in Genesis. This cartoon version is just perfect for kids or adults. The story is first introduced by Charlton Heston. If the kids start looking around for other things to do, don't worry. The introduction is brief, but it's a good one followed by the cute animated story of Joseph and his coat of many colours which everyone will love. My friend's son was only 2 when he watched part of this and he was glued to it! The characters are cute and all of the Heroes and Legends videos are told in a way that it easy for a child to understand.

I'm not a religious person,so I appreciated how it was told with unbiased theology and how the creators of the dvd contacted a Christian minister and Dr from Jewish Divinity Hebrew school.My kids and I enjoyed it and learned a lot!

3 out of 5 stars Could have been better.......2006-06-11

For such an awesome Bible story, the animation for the crossing of the Red Sea was pretty lame. We know from history that there were at least a million people that crossed this massive body of water, and in the animation you can count maybe 25 people, crossing waist-high water. Other than that, the songs are annoying but the storyline is fairly accurate. The Red Sea crossing, which should have been the climax, was a major disappointment.

1 out of 5 stars Confused film features a confused, "Arian" Jesus.......2005-03-27

I wanted to like this video. Really, I did.

The animation is crisp, the voice acting excellent and the pacing holds the attention of all but the most distracted children. But "Greatest Heroes and Legends of the Bible: The Last Supper, Crucifixion and Resurrection" is a deeply flawed and -- dare I say it -- heretical piece of cinema.

My guard went up when I brought the film home from the store, flipped over the clam-shell case and read "Jesus retires to a garden to pray, but is captured by soldiers before dawn, having been betrayed by Judas, one of His disciples. Within a short time He is crucified but does not die -- not in any meaningful sense."

Full stop.

Just as there can be no Redemption without the cross, there can be no Resurrection without death. When Scripture and 2,000 years of Tradition assert that Jesus died, it means He was D-E-A-D, not merely pretending to die as various gnostic heretics asserted during the first few centuries of Church history.

Likewise, during Charlton Heston's introduction, he suggests that "this young man Jesus didn't know and understand the Father's plan. After all he said 'my God, my God, why have you forsaken me'."

In reality, Jesus is citing a psalm that concerns a just man wronged. One of the bedrock Christian beliefs is that Jesus Christ is God. The notion that the Redemption confused Him is utter nonsense. One would have hoped that the definition of Christ's divinity at the Council of Nicea in 325 had put to rest the Arian heresy once and for all. But there it is, in the mouth of Charlton "Moses" Heston.

I literally paused the DVD player within the first thirty seconds of this video for a "teaching moment" with the children to explain why what Heston said was wrong.

There are also various ad-libbed statements inserted into Christ's mouth that have more to do with the director's interests than with presenting the life of Christ.

The entire "Heroes and Legends" series is "advised" by representatives of the United Methodist Church and Hebrew Union College. They must have either slept through this DVD's production or skipped Sunday school.

Their advice brings to mind what C.S. Lewis said about authentic theology[*]: "Theology is practical, especially now. In the old days, when there was less education and discussion, perhaps it was possible to get on with a very few simple ideas about God. But it is not so now. Everyone reads, everyone hears things discussed. Consequently, if you do not listen to Theology, that will not mean that you have no ideas about God. It will mean that you have a lot of the wrong ones."

There are "wrong ones" aplenty in this little film.

Christians seeking a truer, orthodox depiction of the Gospel should spend the extra $5 and buy "The Miracle Maker".

3 out of 5 stars Too much creative license.......2007-03-20

I had a hard time with this video because of the amount of "creative license". When using a video to teach a Bible story, I like it to be as accurate as possible. I would have a hard time using this video for this purpose, as children who don't know the Bible wouldn't know what was from the Bible and what was someone else's idea of what might have happened. It might be useful for older children where you could talk about the differences between the video and what is actually in the Bible, or perhaps you could use clips during a lesson about Jonah, but I would not recommend showing it as is to children without making it clear that a lot of what is in the video is from someone's imagination, and not from the Bible itself.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Video!.......2007-02-15

This video was the first one I watched in the series. I have all 13 and I have only watched this one and the Garden of Eden. Jonah and the Whale seemed to be very well thought out. It did add a storyline that was not mentioned in the bible, but it didn't step out of its bounds and did not contradict scripture. It looked like they really searched this out historically to make it better. I really enjoyed it and can't wait to watch the rest of the series.

One thing you will notice about this video is that (unlike most children's bible videos) it is not corny and doesn't make the characters out to be silly goofballs. I feel this is very important. Your children need to be able to relate to these characters as real life examples to follow. This video did an excellent job at it.

The dvd's were of excellent clarity. The children could not put them down. Charlton Heston still captivates young and old audiances throughout the world. It is a good investment for your family. It fars outwiegh the stench society is now offering on the television for kids to view.

Thank you

5 out of 5 stars A book in common.......2005-10-11

Many books contain many truths. The Bible is shared by many different kinds of people, including me.

It's dismaying to see insistence on solitary truths and literalism. But hey, that's just me.

Fundamentalism is ugly and divisive whether it comes from the Middle East or from Cincinnatti.

See the movie and decide for yourself, gang.

1 out of 5 stars Should be Jonah and the FISH.......2003-12-25

I have not viewed this movie and probably won't because of its title. ...God provided a huge FISH not a whale to swallow Jonah (Jonah 1:17, 2:1) in order to save his life... thus having mercy upon him... Unfortunately, it has often been misunderstood to be a whale. I know it is a children's movie, yet that is not a reason to stray from God's Word. ...The VeggieTales movie about Jonah is more accurate and is awesome! Even the ending of the veggietales movie is accurate to the Word, in that Jonah never really understood that God has mercy upon anyone who repents, turns away from sin, and truly seeks His will. The story of Jonah is often taught as a story of obedience, which it is. Yet it is also a story of God's MERCY. The veggietales movie teaches that in a captivating (and entertaining) way. My toddlers give JONAH A VEGGIE TALES MOVIE two thumbs up!

4 out of 5 stars Pretty good.......2007-02-15

This video should have been called "The Story of Abraham" instead of Sodom and Gomarrah; the whole video was strictly about Abraham; Sodom and Gomorrah was only a brief part of this video.

I did not give this video a 5 for the following reasons:

1) Certain parts of the story were left out which were part of the biblical text; while other parts were inserted which were not part of the text. These parts that were added were not contradictary to the scriptures, but I would rather have seen biblical parts than non biblical (speculation).

2)Abraham is depicted as chosen by God because of his own righteousness; because he loved the truth. While it might have been true that he loved the truth, the biblical picture is more along the lines of God choosing people out of his own good pleasure. God didn't call any of us because we were good, but because he loved us.

3) This goes with point #1- Melchisedec was not in the story- this scene was left out. When the Angels went to Lot's house to abide, the part where the Sodomites tried to break down the door, etc. was left out. I am not sure why this was left out, but probably because they didn't want to offend Sodomites. I understand that we shouldn't purposely offend people, but to leave part of the text out is just nonsense and compromise.

There were small things here and there that I didn't care for but overall this was a good video. It is not nearly as bad as the "Garden of Eden" video. I think it can be a profitable video for your children to watch as long as you are able to fill them in on the parts that are lacking (or added that are not necessarily true).

2 out of 5 stars Very Good Story, But...........2005-08-16

Very Good Story, but there are just a couple of problems. The First being that the story tends to be kind of choppy, but that's understandable. But the other problem is Much More Serious, at least to Me. There is a Really Really Annoying Song that the Narrator Sings in between scenes, and it makes You want to hit the MUTE Button on Your TV, and that kind of defeats the purpose of watching. You can't expect Kids to take something like this seriously, if there's going to be this song that makes them want to barf! The song is Completely Unnecessary, and could be replaced with just instrumental music if needed.

4 out of 5 stars Great value.......2005-07-22

You can't go wrong with this when the price is so low. The animation quality is like that typically seen in basic Saturday morning cartoons, which is good enough for kids. What I like is that all the videos in this series give all the important details of the story, rather than giving a shallow, watered-down version as is usually the case in children's stories. These will entertain preschoolers up through junior high and the script is very closely based on the scriptural account. Each video is 45-50 minutes long. The only reason I didn't give this series a 5 is that each video has a hokey song that could definitely have been left out, but for such a low price and good script, I can overlook that.
