This is a delightful production albeit a few notches below "Ester the Queen." I am surprised at the previous reviews that extol its Scriptural accuracy since Esther is the one book of Scripture that never mentions G*d by name, while the movie takes profound liberties in having numerous Jews calling on the Lord to save them from extermination and mentioning Him by name.
It is indeed irony worthy of G*d that the one book in which He not mentioned by name by the largely apostate Jewish remnant remaining in Persia, that He acts to elevate his people to high positions of trust and authority that eventually save the remnant from extinction.
Enjoy this movie and be sure to hiss at every mention of Haman's name.
