My pastor saw it and hated it. He said it was to gibson what battlefield earth was to travolta. He said it wasn't as accurate as he would have liked and focused more on the suffering of jesus as a means of redeeming humanity compared with the death of jesus being the redemption of humanity. Apparently there were some laughably overdramatic scenes with the devil(who according to said pastor is nowhere in that part of the bible).
I think it will be unfortunate if this movie becomes the de facto version of this story for lazy christians. Since from what i've heard many people say he clearly took liberties with what the bible actually says and made the movie to reflect his fringe catholic ideology.
