More info and Trailer

<font color=skyblue>Let's open a discussion about this film. Mel Gibson is making a Jesus movie, and doing something nobody else has ever done. Portraying it in all the bloody gory horror that is available to filmmakers, as well as having the whole script in Latin and Aramaic. ]

The Jewish community is very concerned because they think this movie will result in a Christian vs. Jew war of sorts. Gibson is pretty upset about the negativity he is receiving for it, because he has many Jewish friends and has never been called out for being an advocate of bigotry before.

It is definately a disturbing movie, even if you are not Christian. The portrayal of such bloody hatred that a people have against one man would stir anyone's emotions, regardless of religious views.

I will want to see it, but I bet it is going to be rated "R" for violence.</font>
