This Christmas special was such an encouragement to my soul. Although different than what I thought, I so enjoyed the songs lifting up my Savior and bringing me to worship Him. I have been singing them all week! The monologues about the names of Jesus was so interesting and I learned from them. The part about the birth of Jesus was so well done. I am grateful to Tinseltown for showing it and for the creators of The Chosen for creating a TV show and a movie that is such a balm right now. The only thing I am disappointed about is how negative some of the reviews are. I saw nothing bad in this movie that deserves such a lack of grace, kindness, and compassion from my fellow believers.
What a great mix. The Chosen is the story and the Christmas movie is the celebration of Gods goodness and another way of evangelism. It is not about us but about others that need to hear about Jesus and the great gift He is.
I was disappointed that the movie was so short and the music section so long. It was marketed as a movie. It's actually mostly music.
Thank you for showing this. Helped me to focus on the reason for the season - Jesus!
This was very misleading... came expecting a chosen episode with maybe some commentary. Almost left the theater. Would’ve been MUCH better if you even kept the music but had scenes in the episode instead of just zooming in and out on artists. Totally not worth coming to the theater for.
The varied artists were a delight. The monologues were full of depth of meaning. The movie was a realistisic depiction and spirit filled. It seems that people stewing in their minds instead of worshiping God and complaining of boredom maybe should not enter heaven
After reading the reviews before I saw this movie, I almost didn't go and expected the worst. However, I think they helped manage my expectations. This is a Christmas Special, not an entire full length movie, and with that in mind, I really enjoyed watching this. The music was enjoyable (it's nice putting faces to your favorite artists) and the episode was very well done. It's also great that by seeing the movie and buying a ticket, we are funding the next season of The Chosen.
Christmas with The Chosen, the Messengers...magnificent music that goes right to your soul! Also the Bible inserts told, that i never really put it all together, and yet the Bible info is there, plus the nativity of our Lord! It was hard not too stand up, raise your hands up to your Lord and sing along. I am going to see it again since theatres have extended movie viewing time.
I loved the music and I'm not a big fan of Christian pop artists. The children's choir was especially moving for me. I like how they had music and story and the talks about the name attributes of God. I love the sets, the clothing styles and the authentic stories. The best way to show the true Christmas story, then and presently. I'd love to take my whole family.
No better movie to get truly into the CHRISTmas spirit!!
