I know as a Catholic the violence is necessary. But there aren't enough of those wonderful, emotional moments in the film to show non-Christians that it's necessary.

Maybe I've seen too many horror movies or too many Quentin Tarantino films, but I didn't find this movie overly gruesome as some have warned. Was it too gruesome for a child or a squeamish female? Well probably....
But anyways, what I loved most about this movie was how it was...( read more) -

Cruel. Lacrimogena. Incluso en su version censurada.
NO es para niños.
Critic Reviews
Gibson ultimately seems to be preaching to the choir, rejecting standard storytelling conventions such as introducing his characters, assuming his audience already knows everything he's about to tell us. full review
Despite controversies swirling around the movie, one cannot deny that Gibson has made a stunning film, beautifully photographed in contrasting dark and golden hues by Caleb Deschanel. full review
This is a two-hour-and- six-minute snuff movie -- The Jesus Chainsaw Massacre -- that thinks it's an act of faith. full review
The Passion of the Christ is so relentlessly focused on the savagery of Jesus' final hours that this film seems to arise less from love than from wrath, and to succeed more in assaulting the spirit th... full review
I was moved by the depth of feeling, by the skill of the actors and technicians, by their desire to see this project through no matter what. full review

April 28, 2009This movie should be titled THE CHRIST WE WISH HE WAS. Lot of lies in it. I'm so tired of the world portraying Jesus as a caucasion. The same ppl that claim to love their beloved Bible won't even tell the truth...Why does it matter? Black ppl (especially children) already see themselves as outcast's (and thats an understatement), and the man that ppl say to be so great has blond hair and blue eyes. They never see a positive black man and when they do the media portrays him as a bad man. It specifically says in the Bible (YOUR BIBLE) that Jesus had hair like lambs wool and feet like BURNT BRASS. lambs wool=that thick nappy stuff and burnt brass? Well a penny is brass, so every1 do urselfs a favor and burn it. Not even a tanned Arab, Jew, Caucasion or any other European can be that dark. My complection maybe? Man I love me.

April 3, 2008This film will make you think - dont watch it if your upset by the violence - its there to tell the greatest story ever - sad thing is it was not a story.

March 4, 20081 Corthians 15:55- Where O death is your victory, where o death is your sting. When Paul preached that He meant that for us to. Death has no victory over us unless we let death. We are the ones at the end screaming Jesus! Let it be that in everything yo, let the praises ring!
