Jivemonkey's Perfect Lil' Wurld

"The Passion the Christ" was a very well made, emotional film. The gore wasn't as bad as most people made it out to be (Oh, it's BAD, but I was expecting much worse.) I would have liked to have seen more back story. It's mostly beatings for 90 minutes, and I was anticipating the end so it would stop! The flashbacks helped, but unless you are at least casually familiar with the biblical accounts, I could see a Non-Christian becoming confused as to who the characters were. Overall, a very good film, but it's not one I would want to watch many more times.
