The King of Kings

AdventureAnimationFamilyFantasy

Charles Dickens tells his young son Walter the greatest story ever told, and what begins as a bedtime tale becomes a life-changing journey. Through vivid imagination, the boy walks alongside Jesus, witnessing His miracles, facing His trials, and understanding His ultimate sacrifice. From TMDB

    The Wild Robot, The King of Kings, The Life Of Chuck, The Long Walk, The SpongeBob Movie: Search for Squarepants. Five completely diverse films, unified solely by the word “the” (and me). 2025 was quite THE year. #HappyNewYear

    Witness the glory of "the greatest story ever told" all through the wide-eyed eyes of wonder of a small boy (& his cat). An amazing cast in an awesome family film for children of all ages! THE KING OF KINGS is in theaters TODAY. #KingOfKings

    Oscar Isaac mumbles through THE KING OF KINGS, a film about how Charles Dickens forgot to teach his kids anything about The Bible for ten years - and a film that says Jesus Christ hates people who turn religion into a business, before shamelessly asking the audience for more money. My review.

    Funnily enough, this exact thing would happen years later with other of his sets. For the 1927 movie "The King of Kings" he built a set depicting Jerusalem. Years later, in 1933, the same set would be reused for the movie "King Kong", and finally it would be set on fire for "Gone in the Wind" (1939)

    How about a South Korean version of the Jesus Christ story, filtered through the view of Charles Dickens (Kenneth Branagh) and his cartoon cat Willa? The King of Kings is every bit as strange a prospect as an animated film as it sounds; it's in cinemas this Easter. film-authority.com/2025/04/15/t...
