too much attetion on this movie right now. the jewish community is being over sensitive and the vatican are being wussies. the jewish community needs to lighten up. it's a movie. people will see it as they will. the vatican need to make a solid statement, even if it is only to say "yeah, the movie was okay".
bottom line: it is only a movie. a good one, in my own opinion... as far as i can tell. people need to unclench.
Putting aside the belief in religion or not. The events depicted in this movie did occur. The events were recorded by roman soldiers and record keepers, by jewish historians, and of coarse christians. So it did happen, whether you want to believe Jesus was the messiah is personal choice.
I am a big history buff and I look forward to the honest (and unfortunately brutal) depiction of how the last 12 hours of Christ's life might have played out. I am sick of "candy-coated representaions of religious figures.
And as for the whole jewish backlash, yes it was the romans who nailed him on the cross, yes the jews sold out christ, and yes chrst's followers (which would make them the first christians) sold out JC too. So everyone had a part in it.
Shut up, watch the movie, and learn something.
I dont get it why does everybody always get so upset when talking about religion in this forum?I mean its not a bad thing and people shouldnt be offended about what someone says about their religion on the internet.I dont mean to get mad at anybody in here.Im just saying talking about religion isnt always a bad thing.But I wont talk about it anymore Im just sayin. 🙂
