I went with a bunch of fellow Christian women, and we got there a bit late so had to sit very close to the screen. A young man was sitting next to me and he had his barrel of popcorn ready to go. He chomped loudly throughout the entire movie. I attributed it to deep nervous reaction, so didn't' bother him about the racket. IT was a truly amazing movie on many levels. Was it too cruel and bloody? Was it cruel and bloody enough? Considering what Jim Caviezel suffered as an actor and what a reaction it got from the Critics (too mean to the Jews! the devil looks gay...too Catholic...not scripturally accurate...too much artistic license...) I loved Gibson's response: If you don't like what I did, go make your own movie!<br /> <br />I recently read that Mel Gibson just sent a draft of the "Sequel" to Jim. At the end of the Passion, I was sitting there, dumbstruck saying "Please, don't let it end without showing Jesus alive." So powerful with just the glimmer of light shining through into the burial tomb directly on the Risen Jesus. I had no idea how badly Jim suffered physically while filming the movie. Thank Mel Gibson for not succumbing to the stereotypes of using a Kazarian-looking actor to play Jesus. Jim Caviezel was perfectly cast, and I can't wait to see what part of the Great Story Gibson will tell next.Siouxmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16723674732880854243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-19074001301034049552020-09-19T13:20:29.650-04:002020-09-19T13:20:29.650-04:00That movie changed my life (and my husband's)....That movie changed my life (and my husband's)....most probably saved us from hell.<br /><br />Wonderful.Brock Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404173139501539265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-280617471735282572020-09-19T11:46:39.704-04:002020-09-19T11:46:39.704-04:00That movie changed my life (and my husband's)....That movie changed my life (and my husband's)....most probably saved us from hell. We watch it every year on Ash Wednesday as a sober lead-in to Lent. I praise and thank God for Mel Gibson and Jim Caviezel. That movie was the channel for MANY miracles and conversions, and God is still doing His work in and through it...yes, very difficult to watch...but what He did for us and for our salvation was more than 'difficult'. I (we) owe it to Him to witness it....it still rips me to the bone, and that is a very good thing...it forces me to remember. susannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-37814035013733355382020-09-19T00:22:58.428-04:002020-09-19T00:22:58.428-04:00Mel and Jim wear the LIMITLESS ONE'S armor as ...Mel and Jim wear the LIMITLESS ONE'S armor as they take a short journey on this celestial plain. They, as others, have eyes that see and ears that hear. The Passion is an exceptional movie that was made by human beings who do not worship money. Have another look at the movie and see/feel it's divine message. In truth it is about divine intervention. Think about what this life in all aspects 'here' really is.

Very dedicated and nice looking man.<br />Mel Gibson can pick them.<br />Ostracized indeed - who the Hell do they think they are.<br />Most excellent movie but rough to watch at times.Rebornhttp://freenorthcarolina.comnoreply@blogger.com
