Disturbing, but compelling, production of the Greatest Story Ever Told! The use of Aramaic instead of English is a stroke of genius - there is nothing worse than Jesus with an American accent! In the words of C.S. Lewis: "If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead; Christianity does not matter - If he did; nothing else matters." The film really makes you think about the events of Easter. I first saw the film in the cinema. It is not the sort of film you can watch over and over - but I bought the DVD to take with me when I move to Spain later this year. I will share it with others - and ask for their reaction.
This is the kind of film that should be watched at least three times a year. It should be in everyones dvd shelf. Out of all the films ever made about the crusifixion, this film is the most realistic (or I should say, how one imagines it to be). Every person I know who has watched it has said how much it has changed their life and how they view the life of Jesus in a totally different way to before seing the film. Some people cannot watch it, some cry, but it leaves a scar on all of us.
this movie truly brings it home to followers of christ,, we should take time everyday to thank the lord for the price,he had to pay for us,all the actors were surely blessed in the making of this movie, glory to god..
This is the most amazing movie , this has changed my life and others in so many ways . To see that God gave his ONLY son to die on a cross for me and take away all my sins .
This film is brilliant. I think all humans should watch this film to see what sacriface jesus give to pay for our sins. IT IS A BIG BOY Movie. The first time I saw it I was speechless for a long time... If you are not touched my the power and passion of this movie then there is something deeply wrong with you. This is a must see....
I have rated this film as excellent and worthy of viewing. The reason, well although I do not attend Church and am sceptical of the stories within the Bible I found this an extremely moving film. The values portrayed in the film will hold meaning to everyone regardless of belief. The film is very well put together with subtitles but this only adds to the viewing pleasure. All unknown actors to me but I was mesmorised throughout the movie. The only thng I was not too keen on was the graphic cruelty in the film but it it all part of the story and should be taken in context. A gripping film; that as another reviewer said "should be watched by everyone"
I watched this film in my church during Easter week last year. On the way home afterwards there was a moonlit cross in the sky.
Very moving and emotional story about the one of the mighty messengers of god.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
