Still, derivative and overrated, but better than Danielle Steel anyway.

Oh do lighten up and don't believe everything B'nai B'rith gets their breeches in a knot over. 50 years ago a massive chunk of Jewery got erased, and no jew ever wants that forgotten, and, frankly neither do I. Santayana was right about that. But the problem is that, as in any group, some folks take it too far and use any piddling excuse to draw attention to it. This ain't it.
I don't know why I'm even arguing this. I plan on not seeing it because I just don't feel like sitting through yet another telling of this story, no matter how well done. Everyone knows the ending(s) and there are no surprises.
Besides, if the Jews hadn't killed Jesus, we wouldn't be in this fix. (jk - very jk)

Don't you mean Schindlers List? 
As for this movie, i'd like to see it. Albeit hope it doesn't suffer from some of the hype side-effects other movies have suffered from

And here I thought Plan 9 had confused it with Snatch: "Who do you need a gun to protect you from? Zee Germans?"
