Product Description BIBLE SERIES 4 PACK (DVD MOVIE)
Amazon.com King Solomon led a grand life, thus rating this epic movie told in two parts, averaging 86 minutes apiece. Director Roger Young chronicles the king's rise from the weakling mama's boy of Bathsheba to a ruler known for his wisdom, international alliances, construction of the Jewish temple, and oh yes, those thousand wives--concubines included. Part 1 spends the first hour tracing the rivalry of Solomon (Ben Cross) with half-brother Adonijah, before and after the death of their father King David (Max Von Sydow in a brief appearance). It then makes a 10-year leap to dramatize his famous method of divining the true mother of a contested infant. In Part 2, the filmmakers embrace the legend that Solomon and the Queen of Sheba (Vivica A. Fox) had a romantic as well as political alliance, suggesting that they were the star-crossed loves of each other's life and introducing some soft-focus nudity. With the queen's departure, Solomon descends into materialism and idolatry. The performances are strong and the script, penned by Bradley Winter, artfully weaves in background information to give the viewer helpful historical context. --Kimberly Heinrichs

  Great fast, service! May 20, 2009 I really liked the service, it was fast and easy. Scheduled time given and I recieved it before time.
  Another well done series May 8, 2009 The is a very well done series. Like any stage or film recreation of a bible tory there are a few flaws but nothing I found to be outrageous or over the top. I would highly recommend this to anyone and everyone, Christian or not.
  Bible set March 25, 2009 Nice film choices to put in a set.
Thank you. nrh
  King Soloman March 16, 2009 I love these new Bible based movies. It's about time the characters are depicted more true as far as race and color goes. I can't imagine anyone in biblical times with "Blond Hair and Blue Eyes" especially so close to places like Egypt and Africa. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  solomon February 10, 2009 Wonderful movie, beautifully portrayed, but you must know, as I didn't there is a nude scene of Solomon included, as well as a little more flesh than necesary.
