I don't do reviews, although I read some from time to time. When I read the one from Feb /17, I felt like I needed to respond.
The personalized criticisms isn't a new concept to movies that reveal historic facts and include biblical references. Those type of reviews smack of an overall disdain not only for great production and content value (this is a wonderful film) but talk of tricks is a curious observation that has no relevance to the film and curious in itself.
The locations, cinematography and writing is superb. Phil Robertson is a natural in the delivery of the documentary-styled performance.
Watch it. You'll like it and likely learn some history you didn't know or have forgotten.
