    Nothing suggests an anti-semiticsim in this film. Jesus did die at the hands of the Romans and in the manner of a Roman execution (the Jews did not have power to crucify). A deal struck between the Jewish leaders and the Roman authorities is what put him to death. Both had a stake in eliminating Jesus` brand of religon: the Jewish leaders had power and status to protect; the Romans were more concerned with law and order. I still love Jews!

    Jesus was crucified because he was seen as a threat to the powers at the time. His brand of non-violent resistance, his manner of stirring the people and empowering the poor, were correctly judged to be challenging the political power structures of his day. Jesus was not a Zealot he was sentenced to death by the Romans on the charge of political treason: "He claimed to be King of the Jews".

    The negative aspect is the evil that tries to crucify this as being a film about hating jews. SO SO SO WRONG.

    I am so amazed at this film. It digs into the core of the final hours of Jesus Christ. The movie hits to the depth of your heart, you can`t help but feel extreme love for our savior. It was beautifully made, and I commend Mel for bringing it to the screen. This film makes you think about the great sacrifice our savior made for our sins. REMARKABLE.

    I loved it. I`m only 12 and begged my parents to take me. They explained to me there would be lots of blood and torture. I was scared by the evil figure more than the blood. I see more blood and violence on normal tv. I did not feel bad after seeing this movie and the evil spirit only scared me when it first appeared, I think it was a surprise. I slept well, had no nightmare and actually brought it up in class. We don`t learn religion at my school. I want to go to church and learn more. I feel so sad for Jesus and his mother.

    This movie is all about Hollywood. REMEMBER!! This is just MEL GIBSON`s INTERPRETATION of what happened. This isn`t what happened. It is so violent that it is all about shock value
