David Review (Spoilers)

I went to watch the movie David by Angel Studios with my mom and my brother. As the title of the movie suggests, the movie tells the Biblical story of David who is anointed by the prophet Samuel to be king in place of Saul. After he defeats Goliath, David becomes well-liked amongst the people. This makes King Saul jealous, and he suspects that David is trying to take the kingdom away from him, so he tries to kill him. Now David must run away from Saul. But if you have read the Bible, then you already know what happens in the end. The Good One thing I loved about this movie was the animation. It was gorgeous. The textures for the characters’ hair and clothing were amazing, the colors in the movie were vibrant, and the character designs were interesting.  One thing I appreciated about this movie was that it didn’t portray Israel as a land with only sand.

Alone in the Desert

Alone in the desert,

Alone in my heart,

I wonder what to do,

I wonder where to start.


My life’s upside down,

And inside out.

I am filled with all this fear

And all this doubt.


Voices in my head

Keep calling my name.

I can’t quiet them.

They cannot be tamed.


One tells me go home,

The other says move on.

Which voice do I heed,

Which voice will lead me on?

But then I’d have to explain

My reason for running off;

My parent’s words caused me pain.


But I already know

How that story ends.

They’ll say sorry and beg

For a chance to make amends.


But they’ve made empty promises

Time and time again.

There hasn’t been much change.

Should I really go back, then?


No, I shall walk on

Through this vast desert plain.

Even if I die out here,

At least I won’t be in pain.
