A Christian Perspective

From a Christian perspective, This movie has done its good work. The Director and the Script writers have brought some of their imaginations/insights into the plot which is not abusive or misleading.

For those people who are non-Christians and those who gave bad reviews, There is no action,violence and strong language in this movie.

What do you expect from a Christian movie?

It's a good recommendation for a Christian

Fantastic

It is a really good movie, the music, the way they have captured the light when Jesus is talking is just amazing. its a perfect movie for anyone that has read the bible and or also for any movie lovers out there.

Not bad! It's more of a documentary then a movie though!

First the good stuff. The soundtrack is absolutely fantastic. The cinematography was pretty good. The actors were average or above.

The average. Since this was made by a Christian based production company it leans more towards the lower budget side. I mean it's still not bad mind you. The editing needs to be fixed. The laughing Lucifer needs to go. Also the narrator needs to go. Get someone with a better voice.

The story has been told numerous times so nothing really new here. IMO people will view this movie more along the lines of a documentary style of Jesus's 40 days in the desert then an actual movie retelling of the bible. Atleast rent it and give it a shot. It's better then most Christian movies out there. I loved the soundtrack.

40 the temptation of Christ

Mr Vail,you did an awesome job depicting what Jesus would have encountered during his 40 days in the desert , his agony and temptation were brought to life. Absolutely worth watching and rememgering what the messiah went through. Please accept my warmest and sincere review as outstanding in every way-George Petroski.

Boring to those who the promises don't apply

I think they did a beautiful job. Love the cinematography. As for those that hate it, whatever. The promises are beautiful and poinent.

Yes, it takes its time, but I guess that what you have when in the desert 40 days. Time to think, time to hear. This isnt "Speed" or "Gone in 60 Seconds", which is apparently what the creatins were hoping for.

(I've only watched the first 1/2 so far and was irritated about the bad reviews.. )

Trivia
Every line of dialogue spoken by the character of Jesus comes directly from Bible verses, either from the Old Testament that Jesus is quoting or something he would say later in the New Testament. The only exceptions are when he says "I know who you are." and later "I am that rider."
