Just saw it tonight on DVD. I liked it (as much as you can like a film that is that hard to watch).
Only part I didn't like was Spoiler: All of the Satan imagery. It's not in the bible, and it was a bit over the top. I felt like saying "Okay, okay Mel, I get it. This guy is doing something evil. I'm with you buddy!" Didn't need to see Satan present every time someone was doing something against Jesus.
Don't think I could watch it again for awhile. The violence is very graphic, and though you ultimately get used to seeing Jesus as a bloody mess, there are still parts that I could barely watch. Hats off to Jim Caviezzel (sp?) as this role had to be extraordinarily draining both mentally and physically.
