    I`m an atheist and I thought it was beautifully done. Didn`t change my faith but did inspire me artistically. The imagery in that movie was spectacular!

    Everything the professional critics are saying is true. There is excessive gore in this movie. Pain and torture was definitely the main focus.

    I had to see it again. I wanted to make sure that I did not miss anything. I have to say again and won`t change my mind. This is not a film to make me hate Jews, it`s about the love Jesus had for humans. It`s about Jesus showing us that all people regardless of religious belief are worthy of our love. Great film Mel. I don`t think the violence was over done. This is a way to make us feel his pain.

    This movie is not about a particular religion, race or nationality. This movie portrays the need for our understanding about a man who came to Earth just like you and me, with the exception that he thought us how to Love Each Other and to think about us as collective souls tangled into one. His pain shows the gruesome reality of our behavioural capabilities towards our immortality. Whether we are good or bad, or whatever we might become. Jesus led us to forgive our own ignorance on what life in this planet really means. The beauty of all of this is that we all have different perspectives and opinions, and that’s why men learn. We collect the

    The "Best Movie Ever Created" because of its meaning. Passion is a very powerful word, yet word "Crhist" completes its entire definition. JOrge G. Tercero

    Everybody should see this movie about Unconditional LOVE. The best movie for our time. It is not about blood and agony, it is not about Jews, Romans ,Christians, it is ONLY about the LOVE of God for us. Thanks you Mel Gibson.

    this movie is about JESUS CHRIST- the Son of God who came down from heaven to die on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. it is not anti-semetic, nor does it have some other alterior motive. there`s been too much made of the "gore" and "violence"- it pales in comparison to many other wide release movies out there. it`s purpose is to offer an accurate account of the last hours of Jesus` life on earth and i think it`s done that. as a Christian i am grateful that it was made. it`s a reminder for all Christians that we should try to live our lives focussing on love, forgiveness, humility, sacrifice and honesty. God Willing and God Bless.

    To those claiming that the Bible is fiction or cooked up over the years or that the Romans never tortured people you have your heads in the sand. The Catholic version of the Bible was set by the council of Nicaea in 325, where the Catholic Church explicitly stated that no part of the Old Testament - The fundamental of Judiaism - nor the New testament (4 Canon Gospel and following Letters) could be changed as someone suggested. Further more, remember the violence in Gladiator? Torturing people was a means of entertainment by the Empire, and the more gruesome it was the better.
