THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST is a vivid depiction of the last 12 hours of Jesus Christs life. ... 25 and having a long run at theaters, "The Passion of the Christ" went into the final stretch of its Birmingham run over the weekend, playing only three shows daily at Wildwood Stadium 14. ... "It has heightened peoples understanding of the sacrifice of Christ. ... "
Mel Gibsons The Passion of the Christ is an intense cinematic experience. ... With fervent conviction, the filmmakers are telling us that Christ, the son of God, took on the sins of the world in order to purchase salvation; he suffered and died to expiate those sins, and he rose again from the dead, thereby conquering death for humanity. ... In these cases, the movie is preaching to the choir, dramatizing in the most excruciating detail the last passion of Christ and the true extent of his sacrifice and suffering. ... Every torment suffered by Christ is depicted graphically and at length. ... This is the story of Christ produced for an audience that is neither easily impressed nor easily moved. ... No one fares very well in this movie except Christ, his mother, (St.) John, Mary Magdalene and a few Jews who take pity on Christ as he carries the cross up to his execution place. ... Jim Caviezel, who has looked saintly in earlier roles (The Thin Red Line, Angel Eyes), makes a strong and tormented Christ. ... ”

The Passion of The Christ movie was threatened with obstruction and even censorship by some of the most powerful behind-the-scenes forces in New York City, Washington D. ... These are the same forces which supported the absolutely blasphemous 1987 movie, The Last Temptation of Christ, -- a movie which viciously falsified the Gospels, defamed Christ, the Apostles -- and made Judas the good guy and hero!
This opposition to The Passion of The Christ was because the movie is devoted to presenting the suffering Christ endured for us, and the Love He showed for us -- in the 12 hours leading up to the crucifixion on Good Friday, 33 A. ...
Mel Gibson has tried hard to make this film the most authentic movie about Christ ever made. ... This is an incredible opportunity for Christians everywhere to help their non-believing friends and neighbors understand the meaning of Jesus life, death and resurrection, and ultimately receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
