Big-hearted and cheerfully silly British comedy about the trials and tribulations of directing a school nativity play.

Nativity

4 stars

06 Dec 2020

Hi reading views there has been a change of plans instead of watching and writing a film review on the film Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger which I will watch and write a review tomorrow I watched the first film that was called Nativity. So today is the 6th of December 2020 which also means the sixth day of advent I am a quarter way though my Christmas movie challenge because there is only 19 days left until Christmas. The movie that I am writing about is called Nativity which is all about A primary school teacher, who once was a failed actor in a former career and is given the task of directing the school's Nativity play, which doesn't have a positive track record. Attitudes change however, when it transpires that a Hollywood producer is coming to film the play but Hilarity ensues when Paul lies to his opponent that a Hollywood producer will be turning the play into a movie is it a true lie or is it the truth you need to watch this film to find out for yourselves. The main actor in this film was Martin Freeman who played the character Paul Maddens and he has also played the character Bilbo Baggins in all of the Hobbit films. This film has been given a four star rating because overall this film was enjoyable to watched but a little bit slow to get going which is why it got a 1 star until during the end of the film where the children started to perform their take on the Nativity story. That is when my rating changed to four stars. That is finally the end of my sixth film review my next film which is tomorrow will be the second one called Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger which was made in 2012. This one was made in 2009 thank you for reading my sixth movie review.
