The Lion of Judah

2011 cartoons had it´s high like Cars 2, Tintin and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic but also many lows like The Lion of Judah. CGI animated bible barnyard about a sheep that must be saved from it´s offering that is lying forgotten and not talked about with Youtube reviewers except for Saberspark. The animation is so 2006 and forgettable pop rock songs.

This film gave me nightmares and I couldn't stop thinking about it afterwards for all the wrong reasons. The donkey voiced by Scott Eastwood was so full of edge that I could have cut myself on it. All of the other animals were very scary and kept making weird noises. Judah was very annoying and I didn't like his creepy human face. It made my little brother cry. Overall, I really enjoyed the film, mostly because I fear for my life that Drake will come in the night and take me out. Not disrespect to Jesus though, very appreciative of what he did for us all. This just wasn't the one chief.

Our Savior Jesus Christ is the King of Kings, the Lion of Judah and I cried and laughed and loved this movie very much!!

I went to see The Lion of Judah recently. My girlfriend and I were the only two people in the theater! It's a well intended movie but I have to agree with the critics - the storyline was disjointed, animation lacking refinement with unnatural movement on flat, glitchy backgrounds (it was obvious they were on a budget), the dialogue was uneven and most of the jokes were weak. You could feel that the movie was trying too hard to be "cool" for the younger set.It's also odd that they are now going to release a 3D version of the film. It sounds like they are hoping that the gimmick will pull in additional viewers. This movie will have to rely on field trips by vacation bible schools and Sunday-school teachers to regain their investment. The movie was pulled from the local movie theater after only one week! Once again, good message...mediocre execution.

This animated story of the birth, and death of our Lord and Savior Jesus was a wonderful surprise. With all of the crappy movies today, it was refreshing to watch a unique take on the life of Jesus. It was entertaining and had surprisingly good moments throughout the movie. I laughed, I cried, I got annoyed at the rooster character. I experienced a range of emotions watching this movie. The truth of the Gospel shined through even though this was animated. The fact that it was animated did not matter. The powerful and life changing message came through loud and clear. Jesus Christ SAVES! It was refreshing to actually like a movie and not turn it off because of the utter stupidity.

For a lower budget animation this film really hits the mark. This is a great family picture. The characters are well thought out and the animation is pretty good. Now that it is in 3D its even better. I liked how they used the bible as a back drop and didn't make it preachy. The music was amazing. A lot of original tracks, well composed and written. I liked how they used humor to tie together several touchy subjects. The story really takes off as the crew heads out after their new friend. They meet all kinds of new and interesting characters along the way. The horse was my favorite character. He reminds me of the giraffe from Madagascar.

Seriously pleasantly surprised!!! The last days of Jesus our Christ on this earth before sacrificing himself for our sins, shown from the perspective of the animals involved; some from Jesus' birth in the barn, all the way to that final, selfless moment when He was crucified. I would recommend this movie to everyone. Forget about criticizing the little this's-n-that's; see it for the incredible message and meaning - and the absolutely clever way of relaying this true account of our Lord & Savior. It truly tells the story very well from that point-of-view, including moments when lumps will form in your throat and your heart will feel like swelling right out of your chest! And for the budget, it really is a nicely done animation. As for all the animal lovers out there, a joyous ending (beginning!!), indeed; not only for the animals involved, but for the viewers witnessing this precious, little, hidden gem. Go see it... You won't be sorry - especially if you're in it for the reason you should be in it for! God bless. :)
