Honestly, this is an overrated movie. A lot of its notoriety came from gorehounds going in for the special effects.

Totally disagree. If anything, this is an underrated film.

I'll admit. I've never watched it. I remember when it came out and, yes, I feel it was over rated. I have no interest in how gruesome they make the crucifixion. One day I'll see it but...na....Too many other better Easter movies out there.

It's a good film, I appreciate the use of the language of that day. If you can get passed the gory events that led up to the crucifixion, you will like it. It's quite remarkable that they were able to make such an entertaining film based on the the final hours of Christ's life. I really liked it..
