'Absent such scholarly and theological understanding, productions such as 'The Passion' could likely falsify history and fuel the animus of those who hate Jews.' 'For filmmakers to do justice to the biblical accounts of the passion, they must complement their artistic vision with sound scholarship, which includes knowledge of how the passion accounts have been used historically to disparage and attack Jews and Judaism,' The Anti-Defamation League said in a joint statement with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and other religious groups upon reviewing the movie's screenplay. The movie made $612 million on a $30 million budget. In part, the movie suggests the destruction of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem - considered one of the most tragic events in Jewish history - happened because local rabbis didn't support Christ. Critics assailed it for having excessive violence, being ahistorical, and including anti-Semitic themes. The first 'Passion of the Christ' movie sparked controversy upon its release in 2004. Gibson has been at work on the movie for years, and told USA Today in a 2016 interview that it will focus on the resurrection story from the New Testament. He's planning to make a follow-up movie for 2004's 'The Passion of the Christ,' and is currently in talks with Jim Caviezel, the actor who played Jesus Christ in the first movie, to star. I came looking for a movie that would give me a better understanding of what the people who were at the crucifixion might have though, but instead I was greeted with gallons of blood.Mel Gibson is preparing a sequel to one of the most controversial movies of all time - and he's already gotten people outraged. While it was interesting to watch, it was interesting to watch for the wrong reason. But many important ideas and concepts have been silenced by all of the gore. At the end The Passion of Christ is an accurate representation of the last twelve hours of Jesus's life. Need less to say, I would have much more enjoyed a version of the movie that focused on Jesus's or his disciple's thoughts. Perhaps Gibson used the blood and pain to keep the audience interested.

While I do believe that the actual crucifixion of Jesus must have been very gore filled, it had much more symbolism than what the film has portrayed. But he quickly regained his faith and was on his jolly way to continue being crucified. One of the only clear moments of the movie was when Jesus (Jim Caviezel) had lost faith in his father. The emotion and faith of the movie seemed to be drowned out by all of the blood and pain. While the movie seemed to be focused too much on the blood and gore it was a good film none the less. The film depicts the last 12 hours of Jesus's life. The emotion and faith of the movie The Passion of Christ is a Christian movie directed by Mel Gibson.
