Unbearably violence and gory and bordering on sadistic fetishism, it is more graphic than a slasher movie, yet shot with a beatific beauty. Little time is spent on his teachings the film is dedicated to revealing the trial of his suffering in graphic detail, which Gibson apparently finds more important than Christ’s lessons and philosophy. Taking the Gospels as his source, Gibson creates his own cinematic version of the Passion Play, with James Caviezel as the tormented but unbending Jesus and Monica Bellucci as a vision of grace as the Magdalene. I hope that I writing this helps out anyone who has been aching to see Passion or anyone who already has seen view it in a better way.The Passion of the Christ (2004), Mel Gibson’s passionate, personal, and visceral take on the final twelve hours of Christ’s life on Earth is, in its own way, as controversial as Martin Scorsese’s adaptation of Nikos Kazantzakis’ The Last Temptation of Christ. I think that this movie brings everything to the table if you believe in Jesus. Although, there are some people, like my father, who keep on saying that they are not ready to see this movie. Not only this film refers to a huge religious icon in life, but it tells a story that is magnificient and beautiful.

The Passion, in my opinion, did an exceptional job on showing such hatred, and so much strength an individual can persue if he/she believes in what they are fighting for. I don't think it is accurate to say, ' I liked this film.' But I can say that I liked the experience that it brought to me because it gave me more insight on how someone may think on the life of Jesus.

In my own opinion, I appreciated how Mel Gibson directed this film. This movie was a very touchy subject and left many with many mixed feelings. When The Passion was in theatres I went with my friend and his church to go watch it. I am a young man who is religious but no longer attends church or follows any religion strictly. I guess to start off this synopsis I should introduce myself so people know where I am coming from.
