Rachel's Man - A Biblical Romance Reviews: Don't waste your time.  2009-02-20 - This is probably the worst biblical film I've ever seen...boring, boring, boring. Mickey Rooney was an extremely poor choice for his role.
I give it one star because the director had the sense to include Leonard Whiting (a very fine actor) among the cast...too bad his talent was wasted on this horrible film. I believe Leonard Whiting retired as a movie actor following this film. Who can blame him? British and American movie directors were fools to let his talent slip away...a great loss for everyone who enjoys good acting on film. Why he was not offered better roles, I will never understand.
THE WORLD'S OLDERS AND GREATEST LOVE STORY  2003-10-08 - MICKEY ROONEY AND LEONARD WHITING STAR IN THIS POIGNANT DRAMA ABOUT THE TIMELESS LOVE STORY OF JACOB AND RACHEL. JACOB (WHITING) BETRAYS HIS FATHER AND IS FORCED TO LEAVE HIS HOE. WHILE WANDERING THE FIELDS, HE MEETS AND FALLS IN LOVE WITH RACHEL. BUT RACHEL'S FATHER, LABAN (ROONEY), INSISTS THAT JACOB WORK FOR HIM FOR SEVEN YEARS BEFORE THE TWO CAN MARRY. THE DISAPPOINTED RACHEL AND JACOB AGREE TO THE TERMS, PUTTING THEIR LOVE TO THE UNTIMATE TEST.
Rachel's Man  2002-11-11 - I felt that this movie was not a good rendition of the story of Jacob. It is definitely not a movie for Bible purest, and the cover of the movie is misleading. The cover for the DVD box is taken from the movie entitled,"Jacob", starring Matthew Modine. I was very disappointed. I would not recommend this movie.
NOT FOR BIBLE PURESTS-BAD BIBLE MOVIE  2001-03-19 - DO NOT LET THE PACKAGE FOOL YOU, THIS IS A BAD BIBLE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!! I bought this movie on face value thinking it would at least be a decent retelling of the known biblical story. I was VERY disappointed that liberties were taken in interpretation. Even 'filling in the gaps' with outragous 'dream sequences' and HERETIC scenes. Although it is based on the biblical story it is not for bible purests who are expecting a GOOD rendition of the timeless tale. Save your money, DO NOT buy this movie. The currently offered BIBLE 4 PACK(Ester,Soloman,Jeremiah,Genesis) is great by contrast and would be a better use of your money. I rated this movie 1 star because the system doesn't allow any lower otherwise....
