Vidor brings a humane yet grounded aura to Anne, one that feels lived.

What we get here is no more real than a Hallmark card, except that it’s a different kind of Hallmark card, one in which Mary has to jump off a roof to escape a burning building and Joseph (Ido Tako) gets into sword fights.

Rated: 1/4

America Magazine

The results aren’t disrespectful, just a hodge-podge, a sort of overly reverent sword-and-sandals epic rich in awe-struck characters, Luciferian mischief and historical opportunism.

The problem here is that it's neither biblical nor scholarly.

Likely fearing a stumble into the deep end of Lake Blasphemy, Caruso errs on the side of humorlessness, which pushes proceedings into the realm of overbaked melodrama.

This was one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. Between the Cinematography and the timeless story, it was stunningly beautiful to view.

If you're seeking biblical accuracy, this film may disappoint. While we may lack details about Mary before her conception, there is sufficient information available afterward for the writers to adhere to the biblical dialogue and timeline. It seems they might have been speculating about the events or relying on sources that weren't fully knowledgeable about the story. Instead of providing a thoughtful exploration of Mary's journey, the narrative seemed to stray into uncharted territory, sacrificing authenticity for creative interpretation. This could have been an opportunity to present a rich, faithful depiction of a significant figure, but unfortunately, it falls short of that mark. Fans of biblical storytelling might find this adaptation frustrating and misleading.

Este filme é um insulto a verdadeira história de Maria. Sem qualquer respaldo bíblico. Podia pelo menos ser uma história de ficção com qualidade mas é aborrecido, sem conteúdo, sem qualquer sequência lógica. Um ator renomado como Antony Hopkins, embora seja a única coisa boa que este filme tem, não deveria aceitar participar em filmes tão medíocres. Não precisa disto

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars
