The Passion of The Christ is more than just a movie. It is a statement of belief. It is a belief that many people concur with. One cannot simply review this movie as any other. Due to the subject nature I think that reviewers should reveal their religious position. Everyone has a position even if it is none at all. Any review or commentary should be seen in the light of the reviewer’s position.
I am a Christian, a believer that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the son of man, the Son of God, and my personal Savior. I believe He paid for my sins on the cross.
If you have not seen the movie, I recommend you go see it. There may be some spoilers in this commentary so see the movie before you read this.
I had three concerns about this movie. The first was that it would not be any good and that it might even be harmful. A trusted friend saw it before me and gave it his approval, so I was certain that it would not be bad.
