MOVIE REVIEWS - The Passion
Mel Gibson's 'The Passion' Movie Review
by Lady Camelot
 Numbing,
captivating, sorrowful, beautiful, profound, phenomenal
and humbling - are just a few words to describe Mel Gibson's
"The Passion." The last 12 hours of Jesus' life
has never been so realistically and dramatically depicted.
The scenes, although graphic are compelling and true-to-life.
The most sensitive scene presents Jesus carrying the cross
upon His shoulders. As He staggers upon the cobblestone
walkway, Mary sees a flashback of their lives together.
A mere child, Jesus falls to the ground and Mary is there
to help him, "I'm here," she says. A million
miles away in thought, Mary runs to the aid of her now-grown
Son-Of-Man, as He, too stumbles to the stony pathway.
"The Passion" truly characterizes the meaning
of "truth." There are no other words to describe
this film other than it is "The Passion" of
Christ. If anything, "The Passion" promotes
absolute faith, forgiveness, love and hope - not only
to God, but of humankind as well.
Starring James Caviezel (as leading role of Jesus Christ),
"The Passion," in my opinion, does not induce
an anti-Semitic depiction of the Jewish people; rather,
it is a deep and profound truth which Mel Gibson had courage
to recreate for all the world to see.
"The Passion" is playing in movie theaters everywhere.
My advice is to view this movie with an open mind and
open heart - the rest will follow.
I rate this movie: 4 STARS
