9/10
Orphan girl grows up in a land of enemies, finds her faith and saves her people

Warning: Spoilers
I have seen the film and it delivers as much as I had hoped. The scenery is authentic ancient Persia, filmed in India and made with a fantastic cast of actors.

Newcomer Tiffany Dupont is so believable, and James Callis' Haman is easy to hate. John Ryhs-Davies brings chills in his portrayal of Mordechai, and it is nice to see O'Toole and Shariff in the same film again - and in the dessert no less.

See the film, take your kids, enjoy it. It's the story of Purim, and while we all know the outcome, it is powerful to watch.

It opens in theaters on October 13.
