Films, like books or music, are made for many reasons. Entertainment, propaganda, controversy, are but a few and in this film there is something of everything. I am not a religious person myself, but am interested in the history of religion, and am, I feel, very broad minded and I think that is probably a required trait to get the most out of this film. As with most sensitive subjects, if you already have an unwaving opinion of the matter at hand you will not learn much from the experience. So i ...

The Passion of The Christ - This is an amazing, extremely accurate film showing exactly what would have happened at the crucifiction. It is horrific, but it shows what it would have been like. I think most people would either be in tears or in serious shock by the end of this film. VERY EFFECTIVE AND VERY GOOD.

I have seen The Passion of The Christ because there was so much rubbish about it being anti this and anti that and too much of this and too much of that. Here is what I have to say to all you "nay sayers". BE QUIET!

I am a Christian and I know that God Lives. His son was Jesus Christ and if you had lived at the time of Christ you would not have said to the Roman Guards "That's too violent, can't you make it a 12A rated beating!"

In fact, what Christ suffered was far worse, and may be peopl ...

Wow, Christians will love The Passion of The Christ, but for people who do not believe that crytopagan human sacrifice is "love" all they will get out of it is 2+ hours of barbarism and gore. If you love seeing people beaten to a pulp, grab your popcorn and head down to the theatre for a "religious" experience you won't soon forget. Vile and forgettable in the extreme.

Before I start the review of The Passion of The Christ, I must first issue a warning. I consider myself a veteran of the horror/gore/torture film genre. There has been no movie that I have seen in my 35 years that can compare with the bloody torture that Jesus endures in this film. The weapons used in the "Hellraiser" series come closest to what is used on him in this film. The violence and torture in this movie are shocking. This film is not for the weak of heart. This film is difficult t ...

The Passion of The Christ was very thin on plot, but a nice way to spend two hours if you like this sort of thing. I'm not a Christian (nor a Jew for that matter), and I defiantly didn't feel any need to believe in a God or Jesus after watching it, so I don't see that many new Christians being 'born' because of this film. Also, I didn't leave the cinema thinking how much I dislike Jews now either, because I don't. It's really not as anti-semitic as the media make out. No more than the Bible itse ...

Overall I have never been so disgusted and emotionally torn apart by watching such a horrendous film The Passion of The Christ. Had I have wanted to watch over two hours of sheer and utter bloody torture where Christs body was literally torn to a pulp I would have rented out 'House of 1000 corpses' or 'Natural Born Killers', even so these would not have conveyed the sheer destruction of a human that The Passion of Christ brought to the screen. Being an anglo catholic and brought up as a christia ...

The Passion of The Christ is definately one to see. Watch in silence and reflect on Jesus life. This film renews faith. It was a brilliant portrayal of what happened to Jesus. It made me realise how much he went through for us all. Short clips reflect back on Jesus life showing us the basic beliefs he taught us.

I think The Passion of The Christ is a great movie. It comes to a point where you want to stand up and yell "No! Stop hurting him!" but it makes you realize what Jesus went through to die for us.
