One Night With The King

This is a movie that me and my husband watched recently. I had taped it when TBN had it on for New Years. We really enjoyed the movie. It is not a carbon copy of the book of Ester and it does not tell the exact story as it is in the Bible. But, neither did the Veggie Tales version, in Esther... the girl who Became Queen.

The sets and costumes are absolutely gorgeous. The acting was great considering that very few "Christian" movies get the good actors. It's not perfect. It is romantic. It's a love story.

I would highly recommend this movie as a date night movie or for a family movie if the kids are old enough to sit through it. Our girls enjoyed it.
