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.

A Pixie's Guinea Pig


It’s no fun being a pixie’s guinea pig.

Though I do consider myself strong,

Strength is futile when inexperienced pixies

Are prone to get spells horribly wrong.


This is most common with a pixie child

Who practices spells with her wand.

She tried to turn my black fur brown twice

Only to turn it pink and then blonde.


Those types of mishaps don’t bother me

Since they are harmless and easy to fix.

But those situations become less pleasant

When more complicated spells enter the mix.


The pixie once tried to give me the ability

To speak fluently in latin or english

But I ended up flopping on the ground

Because she turned me into a fish.


Or she’d try to give me fairy wings to fly

So that she could play with me in the air

Only for me to get the wings of a bat

Which gave the poor girl a scare.


Or she’d try to shrink me down some

So that she could carry me in her arms.

Only for me to grow as big as an elephant

To every pixie and guinea pig’s alarm.


Or she’d try to conjure up a pretty dress

And a bow for me to wear on her birthday,

Only for me to be teleported to a bird’s nest

Atop a very tall tree, to my great dismay.


Or she’d try to turn me into other animals.

She once tried to turn me into a goose.

But of course that didn’t work out at all.

She ended up turning me into a moose.


It’s no fun being a pixie’s guinea pig

Because her spellcasting can be fickle.

But to her credit, she is improving

So maybe she’ll stop getting me in a pickle.
