This is one reason why I would find zero upliftment from a movie that graphically depicts his tortue and execution. Like I already mentioned, I prefer more benign uplifting imagery in my spiritual path. Jesus with a halo is okay, but being tortured and hanging bloody from the cross...no thanks.

I want to see this merely to view a modern interpretation of one of the greatest politicial blunders of civilisation. Why oh why oh why did the otherwise-politically-savvy Emperor Augustus allow the martyrdom of that Jesus fellow? It's such a shame. If Jesus wasn't put to death then it is highly doubtful that Christians would have had the power to shape civilisation that they have had over the past 1700 years... we'd probably still be living in a polytheistic utopia... oh how the early imperial government frustrates me...
