The Lion of Judah debuted as a Blu-ray 3D? Pack on March 27th. A wonderful animation just in time for Easter! It reinterprets the Easter Story with lovable characters: Judah the Lamb and his six new friends from the Bethlehem stable and is full of drama, friendship and adventure.
With intermixing humor and a beloved story, this would be the perfect fit for families looking to share the Easter Story with their children next weekend. The Lion of Judah also features an outstanding cast! Ernest Borgnine (The Dirty Dozen, The Wild Bunch), Georgina Cordova (Nickelodeon’s Winx Club, The Tale of Despereaux) Scott Eastwood (Invictus, Gran Torino) and Michael Madsen (Free Willy, Donnie Brasco) and showcases the best work of Tom Roth, a 40- year animation veteran (Shrek, Hercules, Looney Tunes, Mrs. Doubtfire), and Eric Lessard (Shrek 3, Madagascar). And won the Best Animated Film Award at Sabaoth International Film Festival in Milan!
My son Judah is only 3, so he doesn’t get the story at the moment, but his name stems from the same name as the movie; The Lion of Judah, the symbol of the tribe of Judah where King David and Jesus both stemmed from. It is the first 3D animated family film discussing the sacrifice of the ‘lamb’ and for many, many kids this Easter it would be a wonderful way to understand the story in a lighthearted way. There are moments of drama, it does depict the carrying of the cross and the crucifixion, but in a way that still stays in it’s PG Family Friendly film format. The characters make obvious jokes that kids love and I especially liked the mafia birds who were incredibly amusing. Also, don’t worry if you don’t have a 3D capable TV, it gives the option to watch it in 2D!
