Personally, I don't care for a movie that claims to be "true to the Bible" as some literalists would prefer. I think that is actually NON biblical, if all it is doing is depicting a literal retelling of the narrative, at least from that director's own perspective, but without the spirit. A movie should be true to the spirit of God. There is no greater biblical truth IMO than to be true to that spirit.
A friend of mine who recommended the other movie to me, also loves this movie. I haven't seen this one in a while, but I remember it being pretty intense. My favorite is still The Greatest Story Ever Told.
''Apostle Peter And The Last Supper is a must see family Faith-based biblical story of hope, forgiveness, prayer and the message that anything is possible. Relive the time Peter spent with Jesus, from the Great Commission to the life-changing Last Supper and the garden of Gethsemane. Set in Rome. AD 67. Two Jailers at the ancient Mamertine Prison take custody of a famous criminal. He is Simon Peter of Galilee-apostle, disciple, and the personal friend of Jesus (Bruce Marchiano), also called The Christ. Condemned to death, the elderly Peter (Robert Loggia) recounts his life as a simple fisherman who became one of the boldest figures in all of Christianity. As Peter prepares to depart this earthly life, he will make an unforgettable impression on his jailers through the saving power of the Gospel.''
There are a number of excellent Bible story movies, many mentioned in this thread. However, don't overlook the growing number of well done, faith-based movies available today. These provide good insight as to how Bible faith, is applied in the world today. A recent one that comes to mind is "Run the Race." Others include, "God is Not Dead," "The Case for Christ" ... and many others. Pureflix, a new Netflix-type service, has recently entered the market with Christian movies on demand.
They have the "Living Christ Series" and some rare Christian movies and films.
