    What an extremely pleasant surprise.

    Like many reviewers I'd never heard of this film and had little interest in watching it .... until I read the other reviews.

    Thanks so much in persuading me to watch this little gem of a film.

    Clearly the best musical (by a very long way) in recent years, is The Greatest Showman.

    This film however, on a mere fraction of the budget (only $6 compared to $84 million), has produced a brilliant soundtrack and thoroughly entertaining movie, that's at least 70-80% as good.

    A modern retelling of the birth of Jesus and even though I'm in no way religious, leaves you with a big smile on your face and a glowing warmth in your heart.

    Do yourself a favour and treat yourself to this little gem.
