He showed Jesus' hands being nailed to the cross, when in reality only the wrists could fully support his weight.

I don't know if you'd call Gibson depicting the crucifixion with Jesus' hands being pierced "messing up." I'm aware of the traditional method in which the Romans crucified others (through the wrists), but in the Bible it describes the wounds in Jesus' hands, not his wrists:
John 20:25
So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!"
But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."
Gibson protrayed it the way it was written.
