Bland and unremarkable

No character development. No original text. Some attempt at a poetic narrative rewrite. We didn't make it even 10 minutes.

I think the woman at the beginning was Hagar, but why? You're telling the genesis story from a victim's perspective. Gross.

The plot dragged and did not have any context or explanation. It was entirely disjointed and you have to infer where and who people are. Someone unfamiliar with the Bible would be lost entirely. We turned it off and got The Bible series from Amazon instead.

I don't doubt that there was effort and expense in making this movie, but the oversight of a good script was just too much to tolerate.
