Editorial Review:
The greatest stories of the Old Testament are brought to the screen with astounding scope and power in this international film which depicts the first 22 chapters of Genesis. This is the spectacular story of man's creation, his fall, his survival and his indomitable faith in the future. From the film's opening amidst cosmic chaos, to its lingering message of hope and salvation, "The Bible" stands as a monumental motion picture achievement.
Description of The Bible ... In the Beginning:
John Huston adapted the first 22 chapters of the Book of Genesis in this mostly silly film that takes us from Creation through Noah's Ark through Abraham's near-sacrifice of son Isaac. This is one of Huston's more personally distant projects, à la Annie or Victory; and for the most part you'd barely know there was even a director involved. On the other hand, Huston does provide some of the only liveliness on screen, playing Noah. --Tom Keogh
The Bible ... In the Beginning Reviews:
boring, cheesy, and bad video quality 
2009-10-02 - Despite the fact that I'm not religious at all. I was interested in watching this movie because of the A-list cast with actors like Ava Gardner and Peter O'Toole. It was a very boring movie to watch and despite the fact that I rented it from Amazon, I just couldn't keep watching and gave up on it.
Like other people have complained, the parts with Adam and Eve are too dark. It was annoying because you can't see anything in those parts. The actors that play them are very wooden. The entire movie is just really boring and cheesy.
This certain movie just skips and its jittery in a lot of parts, its just not in good quality. I've rented other movies from Amazon and they were of good quality and I didn't have these problems with them. Its sad that A-list actors wasted their talents on this movie. Oh well you win some, you lose some.
Ben-Hur was a great movie. I suggest that instead of this movie, even if you're not religious, the acting and plot are much better in that movie and the actors show passion, charisma, and character for their roles.
BAD PICTURE QUALITY 
2009-09-12 - I WAS TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS MOVIE, THE QUALITY WAS BAD TOO MAYBE THAT IS BECAUSE IT IS AN OLD MOVIE, IT IS A ONE TIME WATCH.
Purchasing Experience w/MovieMars.com 
2009-09-03 - The DVD that I ordered was brand new and in excellent condition. My family and I have enjoyed the movie greatly and I would not hesitate to order from Moviemars.com again.
Quite Accurate Biblical Account of Creation 
2009-07-29 - My 7 year old grandaughter loved watching this quite accurate account of the Biblical story of creation down thru Abraham. I wish Adam and Eve and been "clothed in light" - not stark naked - although only the back of them was shown. I thought the episodes concerning Abraham and Lot were a bit too long and drawn out - but otherwise I enjoyed it very much. It is a good Bible DVD with a great cast.
