Editorial Reviews:

For the first time on DVD, director Andras Jeles gives us a controversial and haunting look at a dark period in humanity's past. Played out by an entirely youthful cast, THE ANNUNCIATION features stunning performances and the breathtaking scenery of Southern Hungary.

Summary: THE ANNUNCIATION - Updated review
Comment: THE ANNUNCIATION sends twelve-year-old Adam on an existential odyssey through time and space. He becomes a general in Athens, a crusader in Byzantium, Danton during the French Revolution, and a witness to plague and poverty in London. As guided by a deceptively sweet, ultimately contemptuous Lucifer, Adam confronts an endless procession of rapists and concubines, betrayal and savagery, mindless cruelty and fanaticism. Superbly photographed, colorfully costumed and stunningly acted, THE ANNUNCIATION makes Pasolini-like use of its youthful cast to illustrate the horror and irrationality of our times.
Viewers beware there is a lot of nudity in this movie (most of it is during the first part and towards the end). The choice for Eve was right on and she and Adam did a fine acting job. As a matter of fact, many of the child actors put on great performances.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good concept
Comment: The Annunciation had a good concept but it wasn't written well, hence the three stars. For child actors in their first film they did the best that they could but you can't expect quality if the script is written horrible. I would still recommend it for people who like foreign films though.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not interesting
Comment: I guess I would put this in the category of, "I'm dissapointed that I bought this". It is the story of Adam & Eve and the results of them eating the "forbidden fruit" in Eden but the entire cast is children. It's a Hungarian production and the quality of the DVD is not good, the acting isn't any better. Avoid this...or at least buying it. If you absolutely must see a pre-pubescent take of The Garden of Eden I would suggest renting this, if at all possible and then deciding if you want to spend your money on purchasing.
