      Biblical story and superhero story

      In the past few years, I have seen a lot of biblical remakes of movies. Some movies are really bad and are self-entertaining within the evangelicals. They have no depth and no technical content. Some, such as the star, tell the nativity story through a new animal perspective, adding a lot of fun and laughter. In the film, there is also a moderate amount of Christian faith through the characterization, there is no trace of deliberate preaching, and there is no forceful pursuit of "depth" like...

      A cartoon of the Nativity from an animal's point of view, the story is simple, but the animation is smooth. Animals have a bit of meaning, some scenes and pictures are pretty good, and the plot songs are also pretty good. In general, it's a decent religious propaganda film with a little...

    Evaluation action

    Director Timothy Reckart and screenwriter Carlos Kotkin tried to separate the Sunday school from the cartoon network, but they did not meet the standards of the two. The film "The Star" tells it through some rude animal perspectives. The story of the birth of Jesus turned out to be uncomfortable for the audience   . Although there are some embarrassing plots in "The Star", it is not a vivid story. The film emphasizes the faith in the...

    Movie quotes

    • Ruth: Have you ever been to Bethlehem before?

      Bo: We've never been anywhere before.

      Ruth: Well, you're in for a treat. The Samaritan Mountains are beautiful this time of year. Deadly steep, but great views.

      Bo: You've been to Bethlehem?

      Ruth: Are you kidding? I grew up around there! I know all the ins and outs, how to avoid predators and treacherous high cliffs.

      Dave: The treacherous cliffs!

      [laughs]

      Dave: You're not seriously considering this, are you?

      Bo: Come on, Ruth. Lead the way.

      Ruth: Sheep are usually better at following, but I will do my best. Let's go, flock.

    • Cyrus: You know? I think he might be up to something.

      Deborah: He's using the wise men to track down the new king.

      Felix: [shouts] Yeah! Plus, did you see him crumple that flower?

      CyrusDeborah: Shoosh!

      Cyrus: We have to warn the new king.

      Deborah: Pack your bags, boys. Looks like we're going to Bethlehem.

    • Ruth: And now, our tour will continue past these pebbles on the path. Watch your step, watch your step, and watch your step.

      Dave: [to Bo] I blame you for this.
