I will see it.

I find it so interesting that so many religious groups are up in arms over this movie. Yeah, I know why, but it still is interesting.

The movie portrays the last days of Jesus' life as it really was, he was branded a crazy man and a traitor to the country. 95% of the people hated him and either thought that he was a stupid moron, ranting lunatic or a snob who thought that he was better than everyone else. Rocks were thrown at him as he carried the cross, most of the crowd did jeer at him, spit on him and call him names. Most of what the movie protrays is how it would really have happened. Jesus would not have walked amongst a quiet reserved crowd that bowed before him and threw petals for him to walk on as he carried his cross. Just like people gathered 100 years ago for hangings and 400 years ago for beheadings, people would have gathered 2,000 years ago to watch a crucifixion.

And the fact that religious groups are upset that his last days are portrayed in a more truthful manner and not through rose-colored glasses is what interests me. Talk about revisionist history.
