This movie honestly caught me by surprise. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect but it absolutely blew me away. Super heartwarming & it tells such a wonderful Christmas story. I have to tell all my friends & family about it so they can go watch it as well. Highly recommend!

Not only was the movie a great reminder of what Christmas is about, but helps to remind us to see people the way God sees them. My 6 and 8 year old nephews were glued to the screen. This will definitely be added to my movie collection.

Such a great family friendly movie! I loved the story line. I teared up many times! The girl who played Imogene did such a good job embodying Mary. So thankful for the Christmas story! May we all treat others like Grace!

Surprised in a good way. Love the balance of humor, honesty, & heart tugs. No doubt this dynamic has played out through many towns & congregations. This was a wonderful display of humanity & the challenges to love, care, & be an example for all.

My whole family really loved this movie, even the hubby cried. We don’t celebrate Christmas because we are Messianic Jews, but any day we choose to celebrate Jesus is a good day!

It Ms nice to see new Christmas movies that will possibly be family holiday traditions. I wasn’t sure where the storyline was going but it made sense in the end. The holidays help some the hearts made of stone better people in the end.

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever never quite lands its most poignant moments because Imogen and her siblings remain stubbornly at a distance.

Its lessons about how kindness and inclusion benefit both the giver and the receiver are welcome, but its gentle reminder to view even the oldest and best-known story with fresh attention and connection may be even more meaningful.

Director Dallas Jenkins comes from the world of faith-based media, and that world is not generally known for delicacy in its messaging, so it counts as a Christmas miracle that Best Christmas Pageant generally avoids heavy-handed sermonizing.
