Great MovieJul 23, 2010
I bought this to replace the old VHS tape that had deteriorated beyond repair. It filled the bill nicely. I have had no problems with the sound that some other reviewers have noted. Mine played fine through my home theater system.
As far as content, it's a movie adaptation of a theatrical production. That means it's not going to be exactly like the stage version. In fact, in viewing the "bonus content", it appears that parts can be swapped or omitted to suit the needs of the actors or audience when put on by a school or amature acting company. Kind of like Handel's "The Messiah".
Is it a true representation of the Joseph story from the Bible? No. Does it change the plot in several ways? Yes. Is it a worthwhile production? Yes. It is fun and mostly maintains the essential themes from the Bible story. We have enjoyed this movie for a long time and would still recommend it. I give it 4 stars because in my opinion there is no such thing as a perfect 5 star movie.

 Terrible sound quality!May 20, 2010
I had the VHS tape of this video and loved it, so I just recently purchased the DVD. Not thinking there was any reason to do so, I WISH I had read the customer reviews, as many of them commented on how terrible the sound quality of this DVD is. And I'm here to back them up. I have tried watching this on both my surround sound system and the television alone, and in both cases, it's horrible. Background singers and music are barely audible, but the narrator's part will blast out your ears if you turn up the volume to hear the music. What makes this even more disappointing is that Amazon will not refund your money in full.

DVD - Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor DreamcoatApr 10, 2010
This is an excellent DVD. The music is fun and lively and very diverse. We bought it for my daughter's 8th birthday, and we all enjoy it. Our 6 year old loves it, too. Donny Osmond and the female lead have amazing voices. I would recommend it to all - young and old!
