3.0 out of 5 stars A Close Look At Jesus's Family Tree October 31, 2010
By Read A Review
Format:DVD
I enjoy genealogy and have traced my family roots back to the 1700's and am still working on going back even further. God Kings: The Descendants Of Jesus was really interesting, whether you're a fan of genealogy, history, or Jesus. Hugh Montgomery, a retired professor, talks about his work with tracing the lineage of Jesus back through the Norman Conquest. Like myself, Professor Montgomery enjoys genealogy and became interested in tracing Jesus's descendants when he was exploring his own family tree. In this film the theory is that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene and their descendants live to this day. The whole lineage is explained clearly and, true or not, is interesting nonetheless. In fact, Professor Montgomery believes that his family is also a distant relative of Jesus! Good film with a lot of information to think about.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great material well-told June 11, 2010
By B. Hauser
Format:DVD
"The Descendents of Jesus traced through the Odonic and Davidic Dynasties" is the second title of this DVD, which sums it up nicely.

If you've seen The DaVinci Code or read the book, or any of the literature that book was based on, you're familiar with this material. The theory is that Jesus was married (in this DVD, to Mary Magdalene) and his descendents live even today. This DVD is basically an extended interview with Professor Hugh Montgomery, whose research into the genealogy of Jesus is deep and extensive, and he explains it well. As the Tom Hanks of this version, he's believable and compelling, spinning a fascinating mystery. He connects Jesus to the Vikings, and the most powerful royal families in European history, including within the Vatican itself. And George Washington was related to Jesus! Of course, the Montgomery family itself (so says the professor) is also related to Jesus. Unfortunately, some of the evidence for this is in documents by the families themselves, which only proves those powerful people had a lot of gall, but doesn't actually prove the fact. Great material, well told.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting January 6, 2011
By Leann Harms
Format:DVD
Dr. Hugh Montgomery seems to know genealogy and he presents his research very well in this documentary. It's interesting to consider who the descendants of Jesus might be and Dr. Montgomery seems to have traced Jesus' family tree quite thoroughly with branches extending from the Vikings all the way to George Washington. I wasn't too impressed with the production quality of the film and I was initially a little skeptical about the topic. Dr. Montgomery proved to be very convincing and I encourage anyone with an interest in genealogy and spirituality to take a look at this documentary.

To those familiar with the DaVinci Code the material here will be of great interest. If you are an open minded individual I'm sure you will like this movie like I did.
