Movie No. 26 (2018): THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST

The Passion of the Christ (2004)
Director: Mel Gibson
Cast: Jim Caviezel, Monica Bellucci
In Archaic, with English subtitles


The only movie about the Christ I've seen so far that is more concerned about the passion and the violence the Christ experienced in the hands of his tormentors. The graphic violence is painful to watch. Sometimes, I can't see the point of all these. This depiction may be artistic. But, too much of it is numbing. 

The two best things about the movie are the performances and cinematography.

Rating: 2.5/4.0

Date seen: March 30, 2018
