“The Star is destined to become a classic!” – The Dove Foundation
Golden Globe® Nominated for Best Original Song by Mariah Carey & Marc Shaiman
We loved the movie “The Star” from the producers of Heaven is for Real and Miracles from Heaven. The Star movie takes you on an epic journey of a small but brave donkey named Bo! He wonders what life is like beyond his daily grind at the village mill and one day breaks free to go on the adventure of a lifetime. He meets new friends along the way like Ruth, a cute sheep who has lost her flock and Dave, a dove with big dreams. Bo and his new friends, along with three hilarious camels and some crazy stable animals, follow the Star and become unlikely heroes. Joseph (voice of ZACHARY LEVI) is a first time anxious Dad and Mary (voice of GINA RODRIGUEZ) bravely embraces her destiny as she approaches motherhood.
We are so happy to announce this movie is Available on Digital February 6 and On Blu-ray + DVD + Digital on February 20. Mom Always Knows did receive a free DVD to bring you all this awesome info but all opinions are 100% our own.
THE STAR is filled with more than an hour of engaging bonus materials including the “Star-aoke: Sing Along with Bo & Friends,” a dance along to “Life Is Good” by A Great Big World, plus a collection of fun lyric videos that will have you singing along to the inspiring music from THE STAR.

Wow! I’ll let my kids know about this, I’m sure they are going to be so excited.
That movie was so cute. I am really glad I got to see it when it first came out.
Thanks for sharing this review, even if my crew has long passed the age when they “wanted” these types of movies, there are still days when we all relive our childhood together and watch!
