I agree with Jesus' messages, but not with the church that has adopted him as it's "poster child".
This is as far into this conversation as I'm willing to go.

Wouldn't watch it again even if Jesus told me in person.

Finally a movie that touches the heart and soul.
The keyword in my comment was "again" which implied that I already saw it. And if I saw it, that proves that I have an open mind, I think, unless I just went to later on argue about it, which is the point of any movie in any case.
I'm disappointed that you looked away though. The sight would not harm you unless you feel some guilt.

I was crying not becuase of the blood but becuase of the sheer emotions I felt. Let me clarify a bit First the injustice showed in the movie, made me think about all the injustice done to everyone. It provked alot of thoughts to say the least. It also showed how people can be so cruel, even with someone so gentle. Made me even asked what are the ethics of war , if even Jesus does not support it.It made me feel bad about the malice and hate I had for others too. And how people do supid shit without thinking. Like when those people are killing Jesus. What drives someone to kill another person. For example, the scene when the mary is kissing dying jesus and than the memory she has of him when he was 2 and he fell and hurt himself and she hurrys to help him. It just made me think that about all these people dying in the war and all over how their mothers must feel the pain to see their "little boy" die.
It was extremely moving to see Jesus even though all the bruality and hate still showed love and more importantly peace to his enemies. HE never said lets go fight. This ideal really touched me.
The movie , imo, was much more than a story of a death. No it was much deeper.
