Not the best movie, 12 September 2003
7/10
Author: jarmlar from Kongsberg, Norway

"In the Beginning" is a movie(mini) that takes us through the five first books in the Bible. You can expect some visual effects, and average acting.

I did not enjoy the movie, but I didn't either hate it, so watch it once, and let go with that. I rate it 5/10.
