Based on the beloved book, THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER centers on the Herdmans – absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world. But this Christmas, they’re taking over their local church Pageant – and they just might unwittingly teach a shocked community the true meaning of Christmas.

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.

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.
