I've watched that movie once. Basically beating Jesus for 2 hours pretty much non stop. How is that interesting or passionate I don't get. Hate cliches, but there's no character develpment so to speak, no plot, nothing, just beating and Jews asking to crucify Jesus.
Movie sucked and I won't buy it on BD. |

Other than that to get that idea across did we really need to watch beating and whipping for 2+ hours? For a change, I'd recommend to watch South Park episode "The Passion of the Jew". IMHO nails it perfectly. |

I agree that it was more brutal than was necessary. Im congregations were taking kids to see this movie. I wouldn't have done that. The fact that it was shot brilliantly and subtitles makes it a good movie. But my opinion is that THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD is a better movie.

To the people who keep saying the movie is too brutal, have you actually read the bible? It's pretty hardcore stuff.
What do you want, a G-rated crucifixion? That's a conundrum if i've ever seen one? Capital murder of the messiah on cinematic display, but only if it's suitable for the whole family!! Think about it for a minute. Let it simmer in your noggins. You guys are hilarious!! Are any of you related to Jack Thompson? Man, I went to watch this porn movie, but gosh, I really wish they toned down the sex scenes and stuff. It was like the entire movie was about naked people romping around. ![]() |

I would very much like to own the latest version of POTC on Blu-ray -- you know, the one full of commentaries and extras.
Mel's take on the story is highly unique and powerful, and I'd be proud to own it. Even though I'm also an avid Philip Pullman fan. Go figure. ![]() |

Not everyone is into the trend of keeping the camera focused on all the gorey details as they're happening. I'm not saying there can't be blood, but the visible ripping and tearing of the flesh so the muscles are exposed...you don't need to see that to get the point. (Granted, I have NOT seen the film yet but I'm going by what I was told by everyone who has). The 'apparatus' in Se7en is made more sinister because it's flashed only for a second on screen. Often times, less is more. ~Camper |

My thoughts are this. It was a great movie. One that I hope they will do right if it ever is put on Blu. Jesus died for all of us and it was brutal. I think Mel is great for doing a movie like this. It will be the top selling blu ray if it comes out I bet.

I will have to passionately pass on it. I am just not religous enough to sit through that again. Apacalipto is an excelent Blu-ray movie though.

I agree...I really don't think I want to see the high res detail of mangled flesh etc. I had a hard time watching it at the theater. Its not the kind of movie you'd say has replayability.
