Jermiah is one of the best of the Biblcal DVD's. It gives one a great feeling about what it was like to be him at his time. Abraham is another good one.
April 26, 2008I give it a thumbs ups review. It's a movie - not the Bible. A good over view, but read the book of Jeremiah there is so much more.
March 30, 2008Jeremiah is good as a movie, biblical in context, movies have to insert things that are not in the bible to make the movie more comercially atractive, but overall if you read the book of Jeremiah,you will notice that the biblical things exposed are adecuate.
October 21, 2007Jeremiah is my favorite prophet. Great story, closely aligned with the Book of Jeremiah in the Bible.

This made for TV movie does a wonderful job of translating the Old Testament book of Jeremiah to the screen. This is the last in a series of TV movies on various Old Testament books, and is probably the best of a great series. There are several things that struck me about this movie that I would like to share with potential buyers. First, and very importantly, this story sticks very close to the biblical text. It is a `minimalist' retelling of Jeremiah, there is little or no denominational `spin' on this story. It will be of interest to a wide range of Christian (and Jewish) believers. Second, this movie is just filled with wonderfully inspirational Biblical messages. The most fundamental is, of course, have faith in God, but this film examines issues of faith, submitting to God's will, and a host of others. Truly thought provoking for any Christian. Third, the acting, at least by the main characters, is quite well done. Fourth, the sets are fantastic. This was filmed I believe in Morocco, not in Jerusalem or anywhere else in Palestine, but the whole movie has a `Biblical' feel to it. If I had any negative complaint about the film, it would be that the performances of many (most?) of the supporting actors and actress was poor. They seemed stiff and not really interested in participating in the action. A (very) minor quibble though. A well written, well acted inspirational film that I highly recommend.
