  • Inspiring!

    I just love this movie. I use to enjoy lots of biblical movies but this one is the best. I like everything about Jeffrey Hunter’s fantastic performance! When he does the Beatitudes- wow! Omg, his eyes are mesmerizing. This movie really is inspirational, even for people who perhaps have left behind their faith a little.

  • A must see!

    Jeffrey Hunter's portrayal of Jesus is pure perfection. I still get chills watching this spiritually uplifting and yet poignant, Bibical movie. To me, it is the greatest Jesus film of all time.

  • One of the best

    I just bought this movie but can’t wait to sit and watch it, I saw this movie many times when I was a teen, always had in my mind that only God is perfect in everything I believe in him. Always have search for this to watch for free but now I bought it and could watch it anytime I want. Excellent

    While Jeffery Hunter is obviously from the Midwest and not Nazareth in appearance, he does an excellent job of presenting himself as Jesus Christ. Salvation, gentleness, peace, love, redemption, and forgiveness are the primary messages- all radical to humanity then (and unfortunately, still today). A classic and one of my top 10 favorite movies.

  • One of my favorite movies on the Gospel

    I grew up watching this as a child and it still holds a special place in my heart. The video quality was much better than I had expected it to be. A must have for any Christian.

    This is how he wanted us to treat our fellow human beings and place our trust in God. But he did give us brains to make a choice, do good in this or become evil and destroy or fellow man. We'll all have to answer in one form or another the choice is ours.
