This film is incredible in its awfulness!! I am watching it still as I type. Whatever possessed the actors to take part in it? I guess they never know how it will turn out until it is edited and, what the hell, it's work!! It is badly written, badly dubbed and the fictional scenes just never ring true.It is a sanitised version of Nazareth we see in the early scenes and it is hard to believe that he people would have gone around in pristine clothing the whole time!! There is no hint of their ethnicity and it is like watching a school production with studio production values. Rather clichéd scenes just make the viewer laugh and although I have only got as far as the manger scene I cannot wait to see what Christian Bale does with his part as Jesus. I will watch it until the end but I cannot see how it can improve from such a weak start.
