It's really great! (Barely mentions god, if your concerned about it.) And is just a great story.There is one scene that if your a very sensetive parent, you may not want your child to see this, in potiphar's house, which is joseph's master after he is sold into slavery, mrs. potiphar flirts with him. there are many fully clothed dancers, just with a little risqu'e feautures. and a goat is attachked, but is easily seen as a manequin. i sugest going on youtube and looking for these certain scenes, and then deciding for yourself. Again, great movie! i watched it all the time when i was little!

Awesome musical!
Next to Cats (also written by Andrew Lloyd Webber), Joseph And The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat is my favourite musical! At first I thought it'd be overrated, but I was quite mistakened. It's got amazing music, it's funny, and if you're looking for a Biblical kind of movie (this I think has to do with both the Christian and Jewish religion since the story of Joseph is in the Old Testament... right?) then you're right on target. Not only that but it's not very long-- it's a short musical (did you know the original 1st draft of the musical was only a few minutes?), a little over an hour. The only concern for your kids would be the costumes-- some of them are a bit dirty; and then there's the Potiphar scene, which very dirty and is pretty disturbing... plus, Donny Osmond (Joseph) is shirtless for the vast majority of the movie. o_o A liiiiittle weird... Anyway, my favourite song in the musical is Go Go Go Joseph! It's extremely catchy. My sisters and I sing it around the house all the time. XD I also like Close Every Door. It's very touching. We had to sing it in chorus a few years ago. And Pharaoh's Dream Explained is another one of those easily-stuck-in-your-head songs. This is a musical that shouldn't be missed!

An educational Christian movie.
This movie is very educational and funny for young kids and parents alike. Told through song, kids easily access the meaning of Joseph and his struggles while also being thoroughly entertained. The only thing that worries me about this movie is some of the outfits; some are a little skin-tight and at times Joseph's (Donny Osmond) clothing is a little too short.

not bad at all!
well, it's not bad at all. Yes there is a scene that might be a little bit sexual, and a little bit of violence,(though it's a mannequin.) But otherwise very vgood movie.

not frightening........
My 4 year old sister & I both saw this. She enjoyed it a lot, I looked at appropriateness, here's what I came up with. this isn't a frightening movie at all, anyoe could see this without being scared. But it had a little inapropriatness, a lot of scenes are filmed with a bare chested man (mostly Joseph) so it can be inapropriate for some parents, there's a lot of flirting and possibly sex in one scene with potiphar's wife and Joseph. a lot of people near the Pharoh wear clothes that you can see an outline. also there are some scenes with smoking and alchohol. I'd say this is alright for little kids but sensitive parents might find this inapropriate.
