The Bible: In the Beginning/The Robe [2 Discs] [Blu-ray]

THE BIBLE movie itself is excellent,but the only extra is the original preview of it.In my opinion some audio commentary and making of feature would of have been nice.THE ROBE blu ray is above excellent.It has many extras that help you appreciate this fine film even more.I paid $5.99 for both of these films together and to me that is a BARGAIN that CANNOT BE BEAT.My Brother took me to see "THE BIBLE (IN THE BEGINNING)"at the Rialto theatre when it first came out and now I own it for probably less than the price of our theatre tickets from the 1960s.THE ROBE used to be on the late show EVERY EASTER EVE during the 1970s.I would try to stay up and watch it but would usually doze off to sleep,NOW I OWN IT AND IT IS BETTER ON BLU RAY THAN THE LATE SHOW.By the way as I was born in Louisville,Ky.,it is nice to see Victor Mature( He was from Louisville,Ky.Too) in a movie role.

I have these movies in regular DVD but wanted to see if they were much better on the blue ray. Of course these are old classics but I could hardly tell much improvement in the format quality with these except maybe with the sound, so if on sale they might be worth getting. I have noticed in some others I got in blue ray like my 10 Commandments movie were much better than older DVD. And of course any new movie on blue ray should be much better than DVD.

A good price for two HD Biblical epics, but also a double reminder why they're so tedious. Old Hollywood didn't have the cultural power to treat religious stories with anything but fawning reverence. That turns out to be especially damaging for big-budget films. Profit-minded people investing big $ in them are already reluctant to take risks or try anything novel. So everyone settles for stale, paint-by-numbers results that are almost as boring as your worst childhood Sunday School memories.

These are great movies. I really like "The Robe". It is a love story and it has action, but mostly it is about my Lord and Savior Jesus. Jesus came and died for each one of us no matter what sin that we have committed. God loves everyone so much that He sent His only son to die for us so we could have everlasting life. John 3:16.

Two bible classics on two disc's. The Bible is the story of Creation , Adam & Eve, Noah & the Ark. A bit dated but well done for it's time. I liked The Robe better. Starring Richard Burton as the Roman Centurion who was ordered to crucify Jesus & who's life was changed by his witnessing this event & his contact with the robe that Jesus wore. Well done.

Both of these movies in this combined DVD set are authentic reproductions of true events in "The Bible." Richard Burton deserved an oscar for his role as a Roman officer, and his commitment to preserving "The Robe" of Christ from His crucifixion.

I used to enjoy watching these movies at Easter each year on TV. They kinda bring the bible alive in a sense. Now its nice to own them so i can watch whenever i wish. Its a good quality Blu Ray; bringing the film more clear and the colors more vivid.

I found this in the Best Buy $5.99 bin and thought you couldn't beat the price for a couple of good, old biblical movies. You don't see these on TV all that often so this was a great way to add to the collections at a really good value.
