Movie Review:
"When a young Jewish orphan girl named Hadassah became the Queen of Persia sometime around 481 B.C., she had no idea that, as Queen Esther, she would be used by God to prevent the extinction of her entire race. It’s a story found in the Old Testament Book of Esther, and it’s one of the Bible’s most treasured sources of inspiration and comfort since it brilliantly illustrates God’s divine providence and His personal care and protection for His Chosen People".
One Night With the King, then, has a lot to live up to.

It's a sweet movie, a little romantic and has a nicer approach to a story than what I like in the movies these days. It's clean and it's morally uplifting, it does a bit embellish on the story of Esther but not crazily so.
So if you want something to make you think on the beauty of the Almighty, a Biblical story, this is it.
Haman is a type of Antichrist
Haman, Hadrian, Hitler, Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis. All have one thing in common apart from the alphabet ( in English at least).
Also, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot and Marx.
I really enjoyed this movie. The picture of the consequences of going to the King without an invitation was a great part.

I enjoyed it very much when it came out. While I caught the “embelishments”, it’s still a great story.
The actress who played Esther was beautiful. :-)
What would Disney do in a remake?
The Jewish people have been persecuted forever.
Yes. I thought so too :) Naturally so.
Glorification of a foolish effeminate pagan tyrant.
