Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Jeffrey Westhoff
Calling this the "Sesame Street" version of the Gospel would be an insult to "Sesame Street."
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
Delightful piece of 1970s nostalgia; many memorable tunes
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It's a series of stories and songs, like the Bible is, and it's told with the directness that simple stories need: with no tricks, no intellectual gadgets, and a lot of openness.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The peppy no-name cast take to the parables like toddlers take to Sesame Street.
Netflix
James Rocchi
Seventies musical based on the Gospel of St. Matthew is spirited and touching.
Film Snobbery
Phil Hall
A lesson in how not to transfer a theatrical musical to the big screen.

Patrick McDonald
An in-the-moment celebration of the Jesus story, told with frenetic energy & prescient New York City-ness. Contains an interview w/castmember Robin Lamont, plus vodcast link.

We can be the happiest of all creatures if we will just dance to the rhythm of our comic songbook souls.
New Yorker
Penelope Gilliatt
A lot of the writing is pastiche that uses facile Biblical repetitions and leans on a happy-happy mode that seems peculiarly and maybe sadly dated. Woodstock is long over, and the bloom has gone off.
