The movie deals with the final 12 hours of Jesus' (played by Jim Cavaziel) life. I've read nothing but good reviews on this one so far. I wonder how it will do against 1965's "The Greatest Story Ever Told". This flick has garnered lots of controversy for its incredibly graphic nature. No doubt that'll help fuel the ticket sales over the weekend. I hope for Gibson's sake it does well seeing as the budget for this film came out of his own pocket.

Trailer.

EDIT: Added trailer link.

Many people say "I'm not a religious person, so I don't want to see this movie." Neither am I. Infact I downright hate Christain theology (don't give me this "but look at all the good points" talk, I've had it, all your good points are for the wrong intentions).
I still have yet to understand why that people would say that but still go see a movie about someone like Caesar, Joan of Arc, or Martain Luther King, Jr.
The passion of the Christ deals with one of the most controversial figures in history over the impact of one of the most controversial events in history. The thing is, this was something that did happen and I think it would be interesting to see a movie about it.
