“Have I got a story for you.”
The King of Kings is a faith-based animated film that hit theaters recently and has already broken records at its premiere. It’s quickly capturing the hearts of audiences, especially among homeschool families. Why? Because it’s not just another movie—it’s a meaningful and powerful portrayal of the life of Jesus Christ.
If you’re a homeschool parent wondering whether to take your kids to see The King of Kings, here are three great reasons to make it part of your family’s movie experience:
1. Outstanding Voice Acting
If the movie poster doesn’t grab your attention, the star-studded voice cast definitely will. Featuring talents like Oscar Isaac, Ben Kingsley, Mark Hamill, Forest Whitaker, Kenneth Branagh, Pierce Brosnan, and Uma Thurman, the characters come to life with emotion and depth. For children who learn through stories and sound, this level of voice performance brings the gospel to life in a memorable way.
2. Incredible Animation with Attention to Detail
Homeschoolers appreciate quality education and thoughtful content. This film delivers with rich animation, detailed characters, and settings that reflect the real world of Jesus’ time. The characters’ emotions are clearly depicted, and the movement is smooth and immersive. The animation enhances the storytelling, helping children visualize biblical events with clarity and wonder.
3. A Message That Sticks
The heart of The King of Kings lies in its message. In a clever twist, Charles Dickens tells the story to his son, Walter, who is then transported into the time of Christ. Through this lens, the movie teaches salvation through Jesus’ work on the cross.
After Walter witnesses the key events of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, he runs to tell his brother and sister. This part of the film emphasizes the importance of sharing faith once we receive it. The story doesn’t stop there—viewers see how Jesus continues to change lives, even affecting Charles Dickens himself.
There’s even a humorous and heartwarming moment when Charles removes a sign from his office that said, “Do not enter (especially Willa)” The message is clear: when Jesus enters a life, transformation follows.
A Movie With Educational Impact
The King of Kings is more than just a film—it’s a teaching tool, a conversation starter, and a spiritual encouragement. It’s a movie that accurately displays the life of Christ while touching hearts through incredible voice acting, rich visuals, and a strong gospel message.
Whether you’re looking for a movie night with purpose or a way to visually reinforce your Bible studies, this film is a perfect fit for your homeschool family.
