The Nativity Story

The Nativity Story was introduced amidst the Christmas season and it had attracted reviews of different extremes. One of it on the Internet was that it was a boring movie.

As a Catholic, this does affect me tremendously, as the movie really amplifies the birth of our Lord in a visual form. As a learned person, it just shows me that people nowadays go for things that excite and titillate them. Look at the amount of violence, sex and controversies that pervade the media forms in society. Even though The Passion of Christ was on our Lord's life too, it attracted more viewers because of the violence seen in it.
