Apóstolo Pedro e a Última Ceia

My family watched this during Passover/Easter week. The movie takes the perspective of Peter, relaying his experiences to a jailer as Peter spends his final fee days in prison. Peter recounts his meeting Jesus, some of the events of the ministry years, the Last Supper, and the Garden scene.

We watched this with our 6 year old, and would have no problems showing it to other children. Satan does appear a few times in the film, but not too scary.

The acting is well done and the scenes varied enough that it keeps the interest of even the children.

We highly recommend this film for you and your family.

a religious film is not first an artistic matter. the basic purpose, the essence of message is for faith build/rediscover. in this case, the formula is little different. not only for admirable performance of Robert Loggia but for the manner to create the message. it is not exactly chronicle of events but remember of faith essence. a film about force, courage and vulnerability. with few small forced nuances but, in fact, convincing and deep touching. a film about delicate things. and beautiful lesson from a great actor to give entire brilliance and wise light to a special character. a religious film, off course. but not an ordinary one. because it has the gift to put/remind a lot of questions. because it is an example of measure and good work.

It is so refreshing to see a movie about Christianity that is well created and the acting is amazing. So many times you have to look past the acting and videography to enjoy the message of the film. Not in the case. You get it all.

Wonderful film. Barely any violence. I feel that even my smallest child could watch this and be just fine. You get the full impact of Christ's love and message without actually having to see the Passion (which those with small children try to avoid).

An absolutely gem. I would definitely recommend this film to anyone even wondering about God's love.

One of the finest Christians I have ever known used to say, "Little is much when God is in it." And that applies to Biblical movies. They should not be judged as ordinary entertainments, because their subject matter sets them apart, a priori, so that the usual standards and the ordinary expectations must be set aside. In reading the reviews, I see how easily one can say poor production, poor scenery, poor this and that. But I would suggest another standard, perhaps the only standard by which a film about Biblical events or Early Christianity can be judged: Did it give you a sense of deeper fellowship with the subject matter, and with those whose Faith has borne witness down through the ages to even touch us here and now? If it does, then it is a success. If it does not, perhaps that is less the movie's fault than the viewer's. I have been fascinated by the Early Christians (myself being what you might call a late Christian) since I was twelve years old---over half a century. When I watched this, my worldly cares, even my medical affliction, seemed to fall away and I was able to enter into a sense of fellowship with my spiritual ancestors. On that basis, the film is a resounding success, and nothing else from the mundane world of film reviewing matters.

it is easy to criticize it. low budget, not great performances, sketches of Biblical accuracy. but it has two great virtues - Robert Loggia as Saint Peter and the status of story for the child from yourself. Robert Loggia does an admirable role , proposing a Peter near the death , wise, vulnerable, strong and with the precious desire to birth his faith as only memory. a dialog in a cell. images from the past who represents only real present. and the build of message. the film propose only the feeling of faith. without dramatic scenes, without powerful images or special effects. and this mistake does it credible. because it is not an adaptation, not a religious film but rediscover of the delicacy of same message of Church. and that does it not a great film, maybe not memorable. but useful. for the rediscover of a pillar of our civilization.
