I saw a cut of this film back in February in order to cut a trailer for American audiences. I must say that I was not impressed after viewing it. The film started off interesting and silly, but as the plot unfolded it really had no where to go. Actor Diego Luna has done some fine work in his previous films, but he phoned this performance in.

Also, film makers felt that they should use a Guy Richie style of editing in order to spice the film up and give it some edge, but all that did was make the film look contrived.

Right now they are trying to market this film like it's Amores Perros, but this film is absolutely nothing like it, wait till video to see this film.

This movie was brutally graphic. Jesus simply got the living hell beat out of him. Wow! What bad ass. Now this film is all in the eyes of Mel Gibson, and what a vision he had - I've never given much thought to religion, but I am going to give J.C. another look over.

I think Mel Gibson has given us a film that really shows us that Jesus died for all our sins. Also, the movie is not that preachy, I felt that I was allowed to come to my own conclusions on the kind of life that Jesus lived. Mel Gibson has made a religious film with a lot of integrity. It is violent, but wow, Jesus was one tough cookie.

Gibson has come a long way - You must see this film once.

I went into this movie with low expectations because Charlize Theron is a mediocre actress and that her trying to De Niroize a role by gaining weight and making herself look ugly would end up making her look stupid. However, she nailed the role and made believer out of me. Excellent performance.

Not to forget that the story was very interesting and the supporting cast did an excellent job as well. It is a must see, but don't take your grandma to this film for it is too powerful and disturbing.
