By God's order, Abraham was commanded to sacrifice his son Isaac on the mountain of Moriah. While traveling to the place of the sacrifice, alongside Isaac and two servants, Abraham is flooded with vivid memories from the years he and Sarah spent longing for the son they were promised—the son he must now lay upon the altar.
I thought the movie was just ok. Not bad. But not particularly good either. It was a bit too joyless. A bit dull. The characters were hard to really connect with. I mean I understand these aren't just characters, but I mean the way they were characterized just made it hard to get really invested in them and feel any emotions that should be attached to this situation. It is a good message and I think it is an interesting story. And I did like the somewhat subtle highlighting the analogs of this story to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Overall 6.5/10
