- Esther and the King (1960) Slide 1 of 6. Recommended for Kids: No. Where to Watch. More Biblical fiction than Biblical epic, Esther and the King makes more than the usual additions to the story.
- Queen Esther (1948) Slide 2 of 6. Rating: Not Rated. Recommended for Kids: Yes. Where to Watch. A lower-budget effort released by Cathedral Films, which produced various movies based on Bible stories, Queen Esther follows the biblical text more closely than big-budget epics like Esther and the King.

- The Bible Collection: Esther (1999) Slide 4 of 6. Recommended for Kids: Depends. Where to Watch. This 90-minute TV movie (released as part of The Bible Collection in the 1990s and early 2000s) provides a more balanced take on Esther than other costume dramas.
- “One Night with the King” (2006) Flawed yet epic, lacking in performance yet abundant in expressive costumes and set design, “One Night with the King” is the closest any Megillah adaptation has gotten to something great.

- One Night with the King (2006) Director: Michael O. Sajbel. Regrettably, this is not about Elvis. Based on a popular Christian novel, One Night with the King kicks off with a Lord of the Rings-esque prologue (narrated by Gimli himself, John Rhys Davies) that explains that Haman’s beef with the Jews goes all the way back to a time King Saul failed to kill the wife of the Amalekite king Agag.

Jul 22, 2009 · July 22, 2009. 3 min read. Isabelle Fuhrman as little orphan Esther. After seeing “Orphan,” I now realize that Damien of “The Omen” was a model child. The Demon Seed was a bumper crop. Rosemary would have been happy to have this baby. Here is a shamelessly effective horror film based on the most diabolical of movie malefactors, a child. Pity.
