7/10
Perfect family film for this Christmas
2 December 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The Star is a 2017 Christian movie starring a load of A listers including Kelly Clarkson,Tyler Morgan,Oprah Winfrey and Zachary Levi and tells the tale of a donkey called Bo(Kevin Jeun) who escapes his cabin and bumps into Mary and her husband Joseph(voiced by Gina Rodringez and Zachary Levi) who are going to become parents to the messiah(Jesus) after Mary had a visit from god (apparently) who gave Mary the messiah as her child. But when an evil guy and 2 dogs are after Mary,its up to Bo and dove pal(voiced by Keegan Micheal Kay) to protect Mary and Joseph and to follow the star.

Overall I enjoyed this film. Is it as good as The Prince Of Egypt No but is it a great family film yes it is. My only grip and this may sound odd is Zachary Levi. Don't get me wrong his a very underrated actor and has starred in Chuck and my all time fav Tangled, but I honestly couldn't buy him as Joseph,I literally thought of Flynn Eugene Fitzherbert Rider the whole time and I couldn't stop thinking of him whenever Levi would speak.

But my final verdict is at the end of the day its a nice film. May get some negativity with Christians but as a Christian myself I had no problems with it.
