This was a painfully terrible movie to watch. Even if you understand the biblical bulldust, it's extremely boring. We saw this in the gold class cinema and if it wasn't for the extravagant price we paid to see it, we would of definitely walked out. But we painfully sat through it and it was the most terrible story and the most pathetic movie, both myself and my partner, have ever watched. Instead of 5 stars, I'll give it 5 poo's 💩💩💩💩💩

This is the first review I have written and I am 50 years old. Worst movie I have watched & that's a lot of movies in 50 years. I know it attempts to extrapolate themes around biblical parables but save your money and time. I always try to embrace directors attempts to depict views/stories and characters I may or may not resonate with knowing the broader community may still enjoy the movie. But on this occasion I felt compelled to express my view - don't waste your money.

Brilliant! I don't want to give a single detail away. I want to express an understanding I have for the vision this film set on & delivered. The parallels the film draws on are powerful, forcing emotional reactions to the different elements. The acting is just perfect. I do not think for a second that any other collection of cast would have been able to deliver what the actors did in this film. The producers guidance and knowledge of the end product was masterfully pursued. I have little doubt that there came a moment when the film's concepts were envisioned, that the sense of this massive undertaking that would follow in bringing this film cohesively together was at all lost on any of the people evolved in its manifestation that we get to see. This film is not for people easily distracted or unable to concentrate. There needs to be a sense of empathy and understanding for the lead characters unease and their struggle. Without this connection and without an understanding of the deeper second & third stories being told and narrated by the main stories drive, then the final apex would leave the viewer having no clue or even worse a sense of complete apathy for the ending. 5/5 stars
