Leave your thoughts about The Nativity Story.
| tonymedley.comTony MedleyA masterpiece. Mary and Joseph are shown as real people; locations are captivatingly recreated. Joseph gets more time than usual...Castle-Hughes is the best Mary ever seen on film. |
| OhmyNews.comBrian OrndorfEverything is handled with an anvil-like importance, forgetting that, in essence, this is tale of great joy and hope. |
| Arizona RepublicBill MullerThe Nativity Story becomes the anti-Passion, a movie that makes a statement against violence rather than exploiting it. |
| Decent Films GuideSteven D. GreydanusEven at the height of Hollywood biblical epics, the real meaning of Christmas was essentially ignored. The Nativity Story goes a long way toward redressing this historic omission. |
| Looking CloserJeffrey OverstreetPerhaps this disappointing movie will inspire an up-and-coming filmmaker to sense the true potential of this story, and to deliver the first great film about the nativity. |
| The Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttUnfolds in a scrupulously accurate historical adventure story that depicts the world of Jesus' birth with an exciting you-are-there verisimilitude. |
| WaffleMovies.comWillie WaffleExcels when focused on Mary and Joseph, but The Three Wise Men come off more like The Three Stooges. |
| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. MeansStretching this biblical tale to 90-plus minutes requires a lot of padding. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesBill ZweckerA refreshingly unadorned example of straightforward storytelling. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleBy grounding everything that went before in an earthy realism, Hardwicke earns the elevation of the nativity sequence, one of the more beautiful scenes in this year's cinema. |
